London and Bristol

Spring is really springing today: The energy in Bristol is high. As easy as it is to get very excited by this massive golden ball in the sky (winter felt really long this year didn’t it?) it’s important that we stay warm through this transition towards summer. Keeping on with healthy habits such as sauna keeps us warm to our bones, don’t get carried away and shed those tops yet lads (or ladies) the air is still cool, hold tight and wait for warmer temperatures. I’m planning some more time lounging like I did last week @thermae_bath_spa, all in the name of health, not just because I loved it there. (See previous post for all the info on my visit)

One of my favourite things in the world is to introduce yoga to somebody that’s never done it before so they can feel the magic. It’s easy to become complacent with the power of the simple practices when we integrate them into our everyday. This is part of the reason why I particularly enjoy teaching at events, festivals, in workplaces and at hen dos, where fresh people find their way to the mat for the first time.

Yoga is meant to make us more normal, not more special, more alien from others. A practice of connection, to ourselves, to others, to our environment

Picture from “disco naps” @beat_hotel taken by @brensd (This was a posed picture where those lying down knew we were snapping before the session began and we went deep into the world of nidra - I’m not into into those intrusive savasana shots myself 😉)

My weekend started a little earlier than normal - with a lounge about at @thermae_bath_spa. Rooftop pool in the spring sunshine bathing in the naturally warm mineral rich waters, then down we went into the wellness suite - infra red sauna, steam rooms, a cosmic journey into space in a relaxation suite and ice chips (lavender ice chips no less!) to cool us after it all. Soon we rolled into the basement to the Minerva bath pool for more swimming about in the spa water and being pummelled by water jets.
I always forget how close Bristol and Bath are (so similar to how in London we can get lazy and never leave the tiny corner we live in I guess), but this has really put it on my map - I’m going back for more - there’s a water treatment - watsu that is calling my name. There’s magic in these waters, those Celts and Romans were right.
There’s more in my stories..... #gifted

On a hard holiday blues tip as I detox from the “eighteen sugars please” in my Moroccan mint tea habit I picked up out there in Marrakesh. The constant need for sugar is oh so real. Any tips gratefully received - particularly those that involve cinnamon buns/syrupy pancakes please. I’m trying to replace with normal mint tea, but in comparison, it is just, to put it simply, “a bit shit”. I’m the meantime, waiting for your tips, I will be eating sticky toffee pudding for breakfast (leftovers, not freshly prepped). It’s cartmel btw and I will be having it with oatly cream.

Slowly inviting spring energy into my body..... my yin practice is shifting from the watery depths of winter and growing into the woody spring movements. I’m always amazed how this elemental work resonates through my body. How coming back to our simplicity churns such profound effects through our lives. Feeling the energy rising, the mood shifting.

Next Saturday we immerse ourselves in a spring yin practice for a whopping 3 hours of inner gardening @jess_wildwolfsyoga - booking through my website or @movegb. A practice to really tend to yourself. 📸 @wildjesse
