    "A Private Pilates session with Brigid is part targeted exercise, part massage and part physical therapy. Afterwards I feel like I have had all three!"

    Reduce your neck tension - listen behind you. It’s a cue I use in my classes. To improve your neck and head position pretend there is someone behind you saying really nice things about you. You want to hear them but you don’t want to turn around. Listen behind you and feel your neck get longer. You can also place your finger on your chin and press down gently to drop your chin and lengthen the back of your neck. Get tall, it’s nearly the weekend!! #breakthroughtoyou #neckpain #pilatesballina #ballinacommunity #movetonurture #agencypilates #olderwomen #activeaging #pilatesfor everybody #lennoxhead #theweekend
    I’ve had a couple of clients this week be frustrated with their bodies. ⠀ It happens. And being aware of our frustration and what we do with it is important for finding new movement patterns. ⠀ I used to get a sore neck from exercise all the time. Now I don’t. What happened? I had to slow down and find a way to move without pain and make that my new pattern. ⠀ It can be frustrating to slow down, here are some things to help you be kind to yourself when you need to take things slow. ⠀ 🧡 Breathe- take a deep breath and relax everything 🌺 Make your movement smaller 🙂 Bring your gentle curiosity to that area of your body 👂Listen to how it wants to move ⠀ I love helping women slow down and be present in their body. Using the Pilates method to build strength, awareness and freedom of movement. ⠀ Let me know below if you need to take things slow right now... ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement #enough #selfcare #midlifewomen #latelifewomen #midlifeaussiewomen #olderwomen #olderwoman #olderwomenrock #olderandwiser #postnatal #postnatalpilates #corestrength #lennoxhead #ballinacommunity

    Hi! I am Brigid, and I am on a mission to acquaint mid-late life women with their own bodies! ⠀ When I was growing up people didn’t really take care of themselves. Self care was definitely seen as selfish and indulgent. ⠀ We weren’t taught to listen to our bodies, we were taught to override them all the time!! ⠀ My body talked to me though, through my hormonal swings, through pain from minor injuries and my body image was very distorted from an early age. ⠀ As I mature I realise that my relationship with my body colours everything I experience in my life. ⠀ Pilates and movement has been my way of finding maintaining a connection with my body. ⠀ I stand for: * body acceptance * gratitude for the body I have * curiosity leading to deep physical pleasure * supporting others to see themselves as strong and capable ⠀ I hope you will join me 🧡 ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #enough #selfcare #enoughisenough #midlifewomen #latelifewomen #midlifeaussiewomen #olderwomen #olderwoman #olderwomenrock #olderandwiser #olderladies #rainbowfamily #twomums #mumtoboys #tropicalfruits #corestrength #loveislove #braveheart
    No one is born with body shame. We learn it. ⠀ As a girl who grew up in the 80’s really my only awareness of my body was about how it looked. ⠀ I told a young girl yesterday, “Your body looks amazing, but that’s not what it’s for. It’s for you to feel yourself from the inside and meet the world.” ⠀ She smiled, a light and curious smile. ⠀ Most of us carry body shame and it is difficult to unlearn. But we must so we can show the younger ones. They will not learn self acceptance from anywhere else. ⠀ I teach movement and Pilates to help you connect with and accept your body as it is no matter your age or fitness level. ⠀ For me moving in a nurturing way that connects me to my strength helps me breakthrough my body shame. ⠀ What works for you? ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #selfcare #expectless #lowerthebar #enough #enoughisenough #midlifewomen #latelifewomen #midlifeaussiewomen #olderwomen #olderwoman #olderwomenrock #olderandwiser
    Mindfulness is all about sensation and bringing our attention to our sensations. To do it we must drop our presence into our bodies. ⠀ Mindfulness is not centred in the mind, it is centred in the body. ⠀ I love to support women (mostly) to be present in their bodies while developing strength, coordination and flexibility through doing Pilates! ⠀ I do this because women are the backbone of society. We are the carers, the trailblazers and the visionaries. To birth the new world we need be connected to our own bones. ⠀ Women I work with have less pain, better balance and posture and feel like they can take life by the horns. 🦏 ⠀ They have bodyfulness! ⠀ ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #byronlife #byronbaypilates #pilatesforeverybody #matpilates #northernnsw #ballinacommunity #ballinanow #pilatesover50 #fitover50 #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement
    Would you like to feel more pleasure in your body? ⠀ Our capacity for pleasure is connected to how we feel about our bodies and how we relate to our bodies. ⠀ In the past when I brought my attention to my body it was to ask something of it. Do these sit-ups, fit into these jeans, stand taller. ⠀ When I discovered Pilates I brought my attention to my body for another reason. To be curious, to notice sensations, to feel connections inside. ⠀ If you want to develop you capacity for sensual pleasure try practices that bring you attentively to your body without judgement. ⠀ You will not only find pleased, true, you will find sensation. But without sensation there is no pleasure. ⠀ PS I love the Makarlu as way to release tension and deepen sensation and connection to my body. This month you not only get 10% off your purchase with my affiliate code you also get a free brush to clean your Makarlu with. DM me to get the code. ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #makarlu #howdoyoumakarlu #myofascialrelease #feelsgood #whatawaytowakeup #bodyorganics #stressless #northernnsw #ballinanow #byronlife #lennoxhead #dailycalm #managestress #pilatesforcalm
