The best gift you can give yourself this holiday 🎁
Hi Reader,
I'd like to celebrate this festive season with you with what I consider to be one of the best gifts we can give ourselves: rest 🦦
Rest is essential to our wellbeing and yet we rarely make the time for it. Personally, it's not until I really let myself give in that I realise how much I need it & how natural it feels. It's so easy to get caught up in the constant doing and forget how to just be.
Restorative Yoga is a therapeutic practice that uses props to support us in passive poses and induce deep relaxation. It allows us to be present to ourselves and return to a state of wholeness by relieving deeply held physical, mental, and emotional tension.
In this video, I show you how to set up for Savasana like you've never experienced it before, building a cocoon of blankets & cushions for total comfort. Then I guide you through a Yoga Nidra, a form of meditation that takes you to explore the edges between wakefulness & sleep (one of my favorite practice).
Her answer was: "No, no, no! Only on the days you want to feel better."
I hope you give this one a go, and wish you a joyful & peaceful holiday :)
Lou

(ofc without actually trying a single of these exercises 🥲) Let's face it, the wellness & self-dev industry is NOISY. It can leave us feeling overwhelmed and...
Hi Reader, did you miss me? :) I blanked out on sending last week's NL because I was SO EXCITED about hosting my 1st yoga retreat! And it went amaziiiing 🎵 Finding SPACE was the main theme of the retreat and it was a great opportunity to reset in a supportive and quiet environment. The real flex though is how to bring this renewed energy, calm and balance within everyday conditions that are far from "perfect". When the phone is pinging every 5min, more work is added to your already full...
Hi Reader, It's good to be back! I just returned from 3 weeks in Goa (India) to connect with the land of yoga and deepen my personal practice. Do you know it was the first time I ever went to a yoga retreat? Of course I was like a kid at a candy shop 😇 I met the most wonderful teachers, made new friends, had an 'ashram'-like experience, immersed myself in the local culture... and filled my heart to the brim. Most of us look at the turn of the year as a time to look ahead. Instead I tried to...
