Why use Yoga Props

Why use Yoga Props

by Julia K | Apr 24, 2019 | Yoga & Mindfulness

Yoga Cittavrtti Nirodhah – Yoga is cessation of movements in the consciousness; according to B.K.S. Iyengar. Mr. Iyengar is a yoga legend. Perhaps no one has done more than Mr. Iyengar to bring yoga to the West. He made is well-known for it’s emphasis on...

Sacred Beginnings. Sacred Moments. Sacred Sounds Sacred Beginnings. 
Sacred Moments. 
Sacred Sounds. 🌿

Gratitude still lingers from our Rest & Resonate evening — the breath, the movement, the stillness, the shared energy. @serenity_yoga_bedford 
Let this be your reminder to pause, to soften, to begin again. 🌕

✨ Mini Retreat coming in the New Year 3rd January. 

Let’s start 2026 with presence, sound, and soulful nourishment.
📍 Ravensden Village Hall
Early Bird until 16th November: £45 per person | £80 for two

And if your body is calling for stillness before the year ends —
join my Restorative 90min Immersion next Friday 21st November, 18:30. @vervewellnessstudiobedford 

Let’s stop saying rest is a gift.
It’s a necessity — to reconnect, to pause, to listen deeply, and to restore your inner rhythm.

Let’s make it a regular practice — to restore energy, balance, and immunity from within. ✨

Some days you need more TLC. You notice you need m Some days you need more TLC. You notice you need more caring for your body. Your mind. Your constant elevated heart rate. 

Rest is not lazy. 

This is not about being lazy.
This is about honouring deep rest — because it’s non-negotiable.

It’s essential for our health, our nervous system, wellbeing, homeostasis so your body function at its best.

Because anytime is the right time to slow down.
To pause. ✨

🕯️ Deep rest isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity.

Your nervous system will thank you for every pause, every breath, every moment you choose to slow down.

Sipping on some sage tea in my “wine glass” to Sipping on some sage tea in my “wine glass” today 🍷🌱✨

Fresh sage leaves aren’t just flavourful—they’re packed with antioxidants and have natural anti-inflammatory properties. 

What’s even more interesting is that sage contains phytoestrogens, plant compounds that can mildly influence estrogen levels. This means it might help with hot flashes and support the nervous system, potentially helping your body with thermoregulation right in the hypothalamus—the part of your brain that helps control body temperature.

Personally, maybe this tea is helping me—because I’m definitely feeling fewer hot flashes than I did last week! 🌿💛 

But of course, everyone’s body is different, and what works for me might not work for you, and that’s totally okay. It’s all about finding what naturally helps you feel your best.☺️

So here’s to slowing down, sipping something soothing, and tuning into our bodies this spooky Halloween weekend 🫖🎃👻✨

Have you tried it before ? 🌱

🌙 Having Trouble Getting a Good Night’s Sleep 🌙 Having Trouble Getting a Good Night’s Sleep?

In my previous video, I talked about 5 simple things you can do to sleep better — and one of the most important ones is having a solid EVENING ROUTINE.

If you often find yourself lying awake for ages, unable to drift off… 
Or maybe you fall asleep quickly but keep waking up during the night and can’t get back to sleep…
Or perhaps your sleep schedule feels all over the place — one night you sleep fine, the next you’re wide awake at 3 a.m…

Chances are, your circadian rhythm is out of sync — and your evening routine might just be the missing piece.

A well-designed evening routine helps your body and mind unwind, signals it’s time to rest, and supports deep, restorative sleep.

If you already have an evening routine that works for you, I’d love to hear about it — share it below! 👇

If not, and you’re struggling with your sleep, reach out.
As a health coach, I offer friendly, no-pressure chats to help you identify what’s getting in the way and find simple, sustainable habits that work for you.

Sometimes, one small change can make a huge difference.

💬 DM me if you’d like to learn more or book a free chat. Let’s help you wake up refreshed and ready to take on your day!
