So many new mums are told to “just do your kegels” and hope for the best – but your pelvic floor and core deserve so much more than guesswork.

In Grounded Mothers, we dedicate a full week to pelvic floor health and another to abdominal recovery and diastasis, so you can rebuild strength with confidence.

Across these sessions, you’ll learn how to safely activate your core, support bladder and bowel health, and ease your return to s*x, all with guidance from a women’s health physio and yoga-based movement sequences. We focus on practical tools you can weave into daily life with your baby, so recovery feels realistic, not overwhelming.

If you’re wondering what’s ‘normal’ after birth, or feeling unsure where to start with your pelvic floor and core, you’re not alone – and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself.

The next Grounded Mothers intake runs Tuesdays, 13th Oct –24th Nov at Eve Studio Brunswick for mums with babies.

Head to the Eve Studio website or app to sign up for the October intake and give your pelvic floor and core the care they deserve.

Bored? Yes please. 🙌🏼

In our home, “I’m bored” meets excitement, curiosity and a little bit of faith in their capacity to figure it out.

Crafting, making, building, experimenting… these are the things I love offering my kids opportunities to do. Not for a polished piece of art at the end, but for the messy, unscripted, fully-autonomous play in the middle. 🎨🧱🔬

When they roll their eyes and tell me they’re bored, I get curious:

“What could you do about that?”

Suggestions are made. Craft boxes come out. Supplies are explored. And almost always, within minutes, they’re deep in something they chose themselves.

It’s in these moments they feel happy, proud and ok to get messy.

It’s also where the big learning lives:
💛 noticing feelings when things don’t turn out as hoped
💛 trying again, tweaking, starting over
💛 discovering they can create something from nothing but an idea

We’re learning to meet boredom not as a problem to fix, but as a golden opportunity to play, think and create with complete autonomy.

How do you meet the “I’m bored” moments in your home?
Do you lean into curiosity, offer options, or let them sit with it a little longer? I’d love to hear what works for your family. 💬

Getting mum out of the house and into her backyard to soak up some vitamin D, coupled with a foot bath, was a beautiful dose of nurturance after a very long, sleepless night. 💚

We started with a chat over a warm cup of tea while she soaked her feet and felt the warm spring breeze against her skin. Whilst she fed her babe, I prepped some nourishing snacks and put on a load of washing to make the most of the good drying weather.

We finished with a massage while baby slept close by, and I left while mum had a shower with a stock of snacks, a clear space and a nurtured body.

This season can make it hard to feel into your own body when you’re naturally tending to your baby with every ounce of energy you have. Having support scheduled in can help you feel at ease about when care will arrive and take some of the load.

If you or someone in your circle is looking for postpartum support, I offer gift vouchers, single sessions or packages of care. Connect with me via my website to learn more - link in bio.❤️

A birth ball can support comfort, movement and connection during pregnancy - especially if you spend long periods sitting.

Sitting mindfully on a birth ball may help you:

🌀 Gently move your pelvis and relieve lower-back pressure.
🌀 Add posture variety and avoid staying still for hours.
🌀 Practise pelvic rocking, circles and gentle bouncing.
🌀 Encourage your baby towards an optimal position, with their spine facing your belly button and their limbs towards your back.

Birth balls can also be useful postpartum. Sitting while holding and gently bouncing your baby may help settle them and create a soothing rhythm during feeds and cuddles.

For the correct fit, your hips should be the highest point, with your knees slightly lower and both feet flat on the floor. You should feel balanced, comfortable and able to move freely.

📸 shared by a pregnant mama from our current Bloom: Pregnancy & Birth Preparation series, applying her learning to support her body during pregnancy. 💛

A birth ball isn’t about one perfect position - it’s about creating comfort, movement and choice throughout your day. 🫶🏽

The flowers from friends have now dried up. The water in the vase pongs. Dust collects on your side table. Exhaustion is real.

You feel so raw - emotionally and physically - as the tiredness seeps deep within. It’s affecting the way you function. Your body craves something, but you’re not sure what it needs.

Postpartum can feel like this.
Overwhelming, messy, and deeply tender all at once.

In a recent postpartum doula visit, we slowed it right down:
💛naming what’s actually happening in your body and nervous system
💛tending to the small, doable things (hydration, food, rest, support)
💛creating a tiny pocket of calm where you could finally exhale

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

If this resonates, I’m here to walk alongside you with practical, embodied postpartum support in your home.

How can movement help you feel more at home in your changing body?

As your body changes through matrescence, gentle, intentional movement can help you tune into your interoceptive sense - the inner signals of breath, heartbeat, tension and emotion - and your proprioceptive sense, which helps you feel where your body is in space.

Through movement, you can build a deeper awareness of your changing body, listen to what you need and create moments of connection with yourself and your baby. There is no need to move perfectly - just with curiosity, kindness and presence.

Six months in, and the reality of motherhood is still so full and so demanding.

In the depths of winter, with sickness swirling and the initial wave of support having dried up, the needs don’t slow down. But neither does the love. 🩵

During this return postpartum visit, a grandparent took her babe for a walk in the carrier while we nurtured her body with massage. Then I prepared a wholesome, decadent hot chocolate while she ate a nourishing soup.

We talked about her challenges. We let her be held and seen in this short and sweet visit.

Prioritising care for herself isn’t selfish - it’s essential.

A recent postpartum visit reminded me how deeply layered this season can be.

We spent the morning preparing simple, nourishing dahl mixes - some ready for the fridge, others portioned so they can be quickly brought together on the days when energy is low and nourishment still matters. Food becomes care in its most practical form.

Alongside this, we made space for honest conversation. Navigating offers of help from friends and family, clarifying what is actually needed right now, and gently bringing the mother back into focus - her needs, her capacity, her voice. This kind of emotional support is just as essential as anything practical.

We also revisited her birth story and the early days of breastfeeding - an experience that began with real challenges and uncertainty. With the right support, patience, and guidance, she is beginning to find her rhythm. There is something powerful about being witnessed in that process.

This is what postpartum support can look and feel like: nourishing food, grounded conversation, and compassionate care, all within the comfort of your home.

If you’re moving through this season and want steady, personalised support, I’d love to connect. Link in bio 💛

Winter yoga doesn’t need to be energising to be meaningful. This season invites slower movement, longer pauses, and a softer relationship with effort.

For mothers, especially during pregnancy or postpartum, a hibernation-inspired practice can feel deeply nourishing. Gentle flows, restorative shapes, and breath-led movement can support circulation, ease tension, and bring warmth without overwhelm. It’s less about achieving a pose, and more about feeling supported in your body.

And some days, stillness is the practice. A blanket, a few breaths, and permission to rest is enough. This is yoga. This is care.

How does movement support you in winter? When does stillness feel most needed?

May your practice meet you gently and leave you feeling more held than before.
