😅You’ve seen it in every class. The teacher cues Downward Dog like it’s as simple as taking a deep breath.

💛But here’s the truth — it’s not a beginner pose.

😑Downward Dog demands shoulder stability, spinal mobility, hamstring flexibility, & core strength — all at once. For some, it’s energising. For others, it’s a fast track to strain, dizziness, or frustration.

And if you have:
⚠️ High blood pressure
⚠️ Wrist, shoulder, or neck issues
⚠️ Vertigo or chronic fatigue
…this pose can actually do more harm than good.

🎤That’s why one-on-one Yoga therapy matters.
When you work with someone trained to understand your body’s story, your practice becomes supportive, not stressful. You learn where your strength lies, what needs gentleness, & how to move in a way that honours your physiology — not someone else’s.

Because Yoga isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s one-human-at-a-time.🧘‍♀️

I thought giving up alcohol would be the hardest thing I’d ever do — but it turns out, it’s one of the kindest things I’ve done for my mind.🧠

Here’s what no one tells you:
👉Numb doesn’t equal calm.
👉Escape doesn’t equal peace.
👉And you can’t grow or do things different if you keep sedating.

This World Mental Health Day, maybe it’s not about fixing everything — maybe it’s about feeling again.
Clearly. Fully. Without the fog.🙏

⭐️If you’ve been sober-curious, or just craving a life that feels lighter & more honest — consider this your nudge.

You don’t need a label to take a break.
You just need permission.💪

✨Here’s to clear minds, real rest, & remembering how good it feels to wake up — as you.

Just Kahuna massage solving all the problems — the kind your foam roller, deep breathing, & day off couldn’t touch.🌺

This isn’t your average back rub.🙌

🌊It’s rhythmic, flowing, intuitive — a full-body reset for when your system’s been running on low battery for way too long.

🐚Expect warmth. Release. Space to exhale.
It’s not about fixing you — it’s about helping you reconnect with the parts that already know how to heal.

🐋 Because when your body feels supported, everything else starts to fall back into place.

📢I love a good reframe as much as the next person, BUT— you can’t call it “self-awareness” when it’s actually self-surveillance.

👉You need calm, but feel guilty when it doesn’t look like “progress.”
👉You’re surviving, not thriving, because your body’s staging an intervention.

That’s the work we do together in Yoga therapy — not chasing a version of calm that’s perfect, but learning how to actually feel safe in your life.🙌

🖤So yeah, this might sting a little…
but only in the way truth does right before it feels like relief.

Apparently “floor time” is trending as a way to feel less overwhelmed…

But yogis? We’ve known about this cheat code forever.

Shavasana (aka the sacred art of lying down) isn’t just a pose at the end of class — it’s where your body integrates, your breath softens, & your mind finally gets the memo to chill.

So yes, lying on the floor is therapy…

But when we pair it with intentional breath, mindful movement, & compassionate support? That’s where the real magic (and healing) happens.

They said “Just be yourself.”

Well, I did… and now my best friend has six voice notes, my therapist wants a break, & the moms’ group knows more about diaphragmatic breathing than the PE teacher.

And honestly? Same energy I bring into my work.

Yoga therapy, Reiki + Kahuna aren’t just about “being zen.” They’re about helping real humans — with messy schedules, wild emotions, & overthinking brains — find calm, energy & strength in ways that actually fit their lives.

So if you’re in your 40+ era of “I need something that actually works” — hi 👋 I’m Ann. This is literally what I do.

⭐️Book your not-so-average-bodywork session….before I leave another voice note.
