Alarm set for my self practice yoga in the morning, haven’t done any thing for a while. Just haven’t had the mojo for it, listening to my body, and she’s telling me she’s ready for the mat tomorrow. That’s if she wakes up in time! Maybe, maybe not, either way is good!!
😍🦄✨

I always get great satisfaction when I get up early for my own yoga practice. This mornings practise was so beautiful & very energising!
Absolutely loving my Himalayan crystal salt rock candle holder from my gorgeous sister Sarah Charlesworth for my birthday! Thank you, the energy from it is so wonderful!
🙏💝🙏
I love this journey!
I’m learning so much about myself every practice & its amazing!
I’m not saying its been easy, it really hasn’t, but what would I be learning if it was!
HAPPY ONE YEAR YOGA PRACTICE TO ME!
Excited & anxious all at the same time! This morning I am off to my 2nd Yoga workshop, this time it’s with another of my beautiful Yoga teachers, Denise – @smallworldyogi!
I really am amazing myself with how far I’ve come on this journey, not just my Yoga journey but my life journey! Thanks to my yoga I am more open to learning new things about myself, my confidence to travel further and go to new places on my own has to be one of the most noticeable things for me! I would never have even dreamt of doing this a year ago!
From reading that, you might be wondering “travel further, where is she going for this workshop?”
Well, its only just over 6 miles away but its an area I’m not used to driving to and last time me & my yoga bestie attempted to go to Denise’s class, we got lost!
So, because of that, and because I’ll be on my own, I’ve given myself added pressure and anxiety where it isn’t needed!
I could ask for my DebbieRahRah to take me but this is something I have to do and I can do it!
🙏🦄💁
Ready to rejoin my mat in another yoga class this afternoon!
I got this & I’m prepared with nuts & juice for after!
🙏
This may seem a contradiction to last nights post but, it has been planned for a while, I’m off to a new (to me) yoga class with my yoga bestie!
I won’t stop my yoga practice, I just won’t be attending classes for a while (after today!)
This means I’ll have to mentally work harder to make sure I do continue with my own practice! I’m sure you can imagine, how much easier it is to sit on the sofa, rather than rolling out your mat!
I’m not quitting, its not my nature, I’m just listening to my body and preserving my emotional state!
MS anxiety & depression is so hard to stay on top of!
🙏
So this happened during my 1-1 yoga today!
Today’s session was all about love, self love and appreciation in fact!
This is what happens when you have such a wonderful Yoga teacher who you feel so connected to! Thanks to her as well for putting me in contact with Melissa Wells!
I feel so honoured that the universe heard me on one of those many days, when I was so low, from the beging of my MS diagnosis 7 years ago and Fibromyalgia 6 years ago to when I was given Louise’s name in March 2016!
I was so desperate to stop hating myself for gaining weight because of my mobility issues, not because of anything I could have prevented.
I needed a change. Something had to give, so I put it out there, I had always felt the calling for Yoga, knowing how open I am to spiritual insight, I knew I was on the right path.
I think it could have only been my third 1-1 with Lou when I started to open up to her about what I had only at the time, recently discovered about myself, I had an eating disorder.
She instantly told me about Mel & The Goddess Revolution, which upon hearing about it, I instantly pre-ordered the book!
And I’ve never looked back since!
This picture makes me so happy!
What you cant see is my beaming yoga high smile during, after and every time I look at it!
What no one saw and very rarely sees (that’s called being an MS warrior, there’s a lot of us! 👏) was the major energy crash afterwards and the muscle soreness!
You know what though, it was totally worth it! The whole session was!
Please always remember, anything is possible! 🙏💚
Absolutely love this!
“Wouldn’t it be lovely if we obsessed about all the things we love about ourselves!”
@tara_elle83 just brilliant & thanks to @chloebrotheridge for also sharing! 👏
”You are something magical”
Remembering this today, especially after receiving 2 letters from my neurologist via my GP
The letters are from my latest routine #appointment with #neuro for my #ms review which was back in September.
The letters speak briefly about my MS but mainly about my weight gain
I know this is part of a medical practitioners job but I could have cried whilst reading it!
He says about how we discussed my increase in antidepressant which I also use for pain relief and the possibility of this being a reason for the rapid increase in weight.
Well Mr hoity toity, I’m doing the best I can right now & I’m happy with that!
Looking forward to my lovely Yoga teachers return from her jollies so we can make a start on me being one of her health coach case studies.
I’m not one to enjoy sitting around doing nothing!
When you have MS and an infection, doing nothing really is the best we can do!
What I really want to do though is go to my Yoga class as I normally do with Louise my Yoga teacher!
Living life the MegaSpecial way!
