    I struggle with this! Do you? Since I was little my body has always been perceived through other peoples eyes 👀. ⠀ I have persisted to reclaim my experience of my body from the inside, accountable to no one but myself. ⠀ I succeed and I falter. But I find it helpful to remember that I am not an ornament. ⠀ My body belongs to me and the more connected to my body I am the more I am my true self. ⠀ You deserve to inhabit your body 🧡 no apology, no explanation. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone
    Happy long weekend for us! May we all be rejuvenated come Tuesday.🧡#longweekendvibes #lenno
    Mindfulness begins in your body not in your mind. ⠀ Taking the time to quiet the mind focus on your breath and sensations that come with it is mindfulness. ⠀ Noticing the beauty of the sun sparkling on the leaves giving your full attention to your eyes is mindfulness. ⠀ E njoying the warmth between your hands cradling a mug of warm tea is mindfulness. ⠀ Sensation begins in your body. ⠀ Our bodies and our connection to them is a pathway to mindfulness. ⠀ Moving with mindfulness can help your posture, reduce pain, give you more mobility and better balance. ⠀ When we move with mindfulness we develop our mind-body connection, this is a form of meditation. ⠀ When your mind-body connection gets stronger this can support you every day. ⠀ This is different to moving just to get strong muscles. Although you may get strong muscles from moving mindfully. ⠀ You also get much more! ⠀ ⠀ #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #byronlife #byronbaypilates #pilatesforeverybody #matpilates #northernnsw #ballinacommunity #ballinanow #pilatesover50 #fitover50
    Are you ready to contemplate the little things? ⠀ When I was younger I was so busy with the business of life with the achievements with the travel with the expression of myself. I was all about big movements. I knew at the time that I didn’t have a lot of patience for the minutia of life. ⠀ Now things are different I have more than patience for the little things, I have fascination with the little things. ⠀ My movement practice has gone from strong yoga, gym workouts and spin cycling to Pilates. And now a blend of Pilates, functional movement and movement therapy; and a growing fascination with the deepest muscles in our body. ⠀ What I have learned is that the deepest muscles in our body and the proprioceptors in and around our joints determine how we move and how we feel in our bodies. ⠀ Show me some emoji love below if you are cultivating a fascination with the little things in life. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #balance #goodbalance #dailyreminder #radicalselflove #fitoverfourty #stable #fallprevention #grandmalife #mumlife #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #selfcare #midlifewomen #latelifewomen #midlifeaussiewomen #olderwomenrock #olderandwiser
    When you feel your body is failing you. ⠀ It might be age or injury or after childbirth when you feel your body failing you it’s really distressing. ⠀ I know because I’ve been there. When I was struggling with infertility I felt my body had abandoned me. I just couldn’t get it to do what I wanted it to do. The worst thing to do was to go into some sort of fitness environment where I felt really challenged and again couldn’t get my body to measure up to expectations. ⠀ Even though I needed the endorphins and good mood vibes from moving I didn’t need to place more pressure on my body. ⠀ That’s why I created Move to Nurture Pilates. There are times in our lives as women when we need support and nurturing ourselves. ⠀ Just because it’s Nurturing and gentle doesn’t mean you won’t get results. In fact because it’s gentle and targeted means you will get results! ⠀ So if you feel like your body is failing you right now, like your strength is slipping away. If something happened and your body is not the way it used to be. I want you to know that there is a place you can come where you will be nurtured and supported to move your body in a way that feels just right for you. ⠀ And when you are ready to roar we can level you up, in your own time ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #selfcare #expectless #lowerthebar #postnatalpilates #byronlife #ballinacommunity #ballinamums #corestrength #due2020 #duejanuay #duefebruary #due2021 #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement

    Are you in your comfort zone? ⠀ When it comes to movement your comfort zone is your friend. It’s the place to start so you can relax your muscles and your mind can connect with your body. ⠀ There is always a moment to push on out of your comfort zone, it may be by adding more load, or exploring more range of movement or better yet being present with different areas of the body cooperating!! ⠀ Bring your comfort zone with you to movement and exercise always and listen to it, let it guide you. Then step past it to learn something new and see if you can grow your comfort zone. ⠀ What I love about movement therapy is that what happens in our movement practice supports us in life, body, mind and spirit. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #newyearnewyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #byronlife #byronbaypilates #pilatesforeverybody #matpilates #northernnsw #ballinacommunity #ballinanow #pilatesover50 #fitover50 #postnatalpilates #ballinamums #corestrength #due2020 #duejanuay #duefebruary #due2021
    Sometimes trying less hard is the way to deeper strength! ⠀ Really? Yes really! ⠀ Strength is developed by working the right muscles for the job. ⠀ When we are gripping in our neck, ribs, hips or calves we are not getting the most of our workout. This is our body compensating for the muscles that should be working. ⠀ Building strength in my classes and studio session happens in comfortable positions where you are able to engage your key muscle groups and avoid unnecessary gripping. ⠀ Learning not to grip and compensate is just as important as building strength! ⠀ This is the way we change your movement patterns, reduce pain and live better ⠀ Reach out to come and move with me in my studio in #lennoxhead or in mat classes at #ballinasurfclub and Byron Bay. ⠀ #ballinacommunity #ballinanow #ballina #pilatesballina #discoverballina #ballinabusiness #ballinashirecouncil #ballinabyron #ballinabeach #ballinamums #byronlife #byronbaypilates #pilatesforeverybody #matpilates #northernnsw #pilatesover50 #fitover50 #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement
