BE THAT WOMAN

Be the kind of woman you want to call when things go wrong.
Be the motivator, the encourager of dreams.
Be the kind of fierce friend you want to have yourself.
Love your girlfriends deeply, they are your sister warriors in this world and only they know just what a crazy, hormonal ride womanhood really is.
Be loyal, love hard.
Be a soulmate, be a sister.
Be strong, be kind.
Listen hard and laugh lots.
Tell the truth but keep the secrets.
Big up everyone you meet.
Kind words travel endlessly.
If you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all.
Spread the sparkle of a smile and a compliment whenever you can.
There is room for us all to be happy and successful.
Lend a hand if you’re there already.
Pull your girls up.
Push them if you need to.
Straighten each other’s crowns, spot the lipstick on the teeth and the loo paper on the shoes.
Avoid the drama, smile at the haters, they’re actually admiring you from afar.

After the intense shedding of the Snake year

everything begins to move again.
The Snake stripped away what wasn’t real.
The #9 year brought endings.

Emotional release.

Spend a little time today reviewing what does not serve you and leave it behind!!

Ginger — the warming superfood 🌿
In TCM, ginger is prized for its ability to warm the body, support energy and Qi flow, and activate digestion.
As the weather turns colder and damper, we often feel it in our bodies — stiffness, fatigue, or sluggish digestion, painful periods. A simple daily ritual of hot ginger tea helps keep your inner fire strong, supports circulation, and dispels the seasonal chill.

It’s my daily ritual 🥰



Super excited to announce my collaboration with for a special Seasonal Workshop on Saturday, 14th September at SaMia Yoga Studio, Howth.

This will be the first in our five-part seasonal series, beginning with the late summer season. We will be looking at the Spleen, Pancreas and Stomach organ systems from a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective and the importance of nourishing these organs with lifestyle, dietary and exercise recommendations.

There are two sessions to choose from:
•⁠ ⁠Morning: 10.00 – 12.30
•⁠ ⁠Afternoon: 14.00 – 16.30

The workshop (€55) will begin with an introduction to TCM, followed by a grounding Hatha yoga and meditation practice. We’ll then move into a yin yoga session with acupuncture to support deep relaxation and repair. Then close with some seasonal food to nourish and restore.

👉 To secure your place, please message us with your name, your chosen time, and your number, and we’ll send you more details.

We look forward to seeing you 🍃
