Invitation

I was taking a walk along the river, the leaves falling from the trees.

Everything is exposed ,sad and painful yet the colourful fallen leaves took my breath away

I kept walking ,taking a deep breath of fresh air like desperately asking to purify my lungs seeking a fresh approach , a new path.

I was looking around at the perfect imperfection in nature , the harmony of the colours and its reminder of the constant tension between pain and pleasure, dark and light, beauty and despair, the fine line between love and hate.

the unbearable lightness of our being.

I keep praying for a new world , for unity, coherence ,wish peace for all , and wish to make the impossible possible .

We are living in a challenging and complex time. While we enter a new era, We are being asked to focus on the new world we wish to create and the first act is going inward. There is an opportunity now to rise up but it will take time , awareness , self work compassion and a lot of healing.

As we enter this cold & dark season, the kids go back to school, the kids get sick, we get sick ,work duties are calling us, house duties , relationships all take our attention as well. From week to week getting close to the overwhelming festive season,

we can start feeling the stress levels increase and BOOM we are in burnout before we even get the presents wrapped ..(or light Hanukkah candles..) sounds familiar ?

Nature reminds us that after death there is a rebirth and that's why our work now is important, so we plant the right seeds .

When we pause and slow down we can check what has already died in us , we can let go of ideas that are not relevant ,habits that don't serve us and we can question where we want to be, expand our vision and growth.

The cold days call us back home , to keep warm, enjoy a nice fire to stare at instead of the tv, eat well , go to sleep early, keep moving gently ,do it all with care.
I came back from my walk along the river of my life.

I knew what I needed to do , what I must do to lift up the frequency of this moment in time when so many things collapse .I needed to do it for myself , so I can heal ,but I know it's also a calling to invite you to keep and share this practice with you.

I created NOURISH ;

an affordable 4 sessions for the next four months, for us all to strengthen our resilience and steadiness.

Those sessions are designed to offer an alternative to step out of the race ,so we get a reminder and tools on how to get back to our centre , do the inner work using our body as a primary self guide.

NOURISH is here to keep us accountable and be surrounded by like minded people.

All sessions are slow, soft, attentive where we aim to reconnect to our present self, relax and recharged and tap into our next version of who we choose to be.

We invite the breath in so we can receive and work with the breath to release .

The body moves us in ways we might not think available for us.

We practice effortless movement , so we can work with ease and use what is in us right now and create space in our joints ,open our hearts and quiet the mind.

dm me for any question

your safe space, to be you ,for you only X"
