🌿 Gentle Holistic Yoga

Life can be busy, demanding, and sometimes overwhelming.

If you’re feeling stressed, stretched too thin, burned out, or simply longing for a little more space to breathe, these classes are designed with you in mind.

Each week we explore gentle movement, mindful breathing, meditation, relaxation, and holistic yoga practices that support not just the body, but the mind and heart as well.

This is not about achieving, it’s about creating time to reconnect with yourself, nourish your wellbeing, and cultivate greater ease in your everyday life.

🪷 Perfect for those wanting to:
• Reduce stress and tension
• Support their mental and emotional wellbeing
• Deepen their self-care practice
• Improve strength and flexibility gently
• Feel more grounded, calm, and connected

As a holistic counsellor and yoga teacher with over 20 years of experience supporting mental health and wellbeing, I am passionate about creating a safe, trauma sensitive, nurturing space where people can slow down, reconnect, and be supported exactly as they are.

I’d love to welcome you to our beautiful community. 💚

A little note to my community 🌿💛

I’ll be taking a gentle step back from social media for a while to create more space for presence, rest, family, nature, and the quieter parts of life and practice.

My classes are still continuing, and I’ll be sharing weekly updates, reflections, and class information through my email list instead.

If you’d like to stay connected, receive weekly yoga emails, or book classes, you can visit my website:

Thank you for being here and for supporting this beautiful community. 💛

Today, through my work at Liberty, I had the privilege of standing alongside our incredible team to honour the women whose lives were taken through domestic and family violence over the past year. 💔

It was quiet, moving, and deeply felt.
Each woman’s name spoken aloud.
Each life remembered with a rose, compassion and care.

As someone who supports women in recovery and healing from DFV, I hold close the stories, strength, grief, and courage of so many women. Today is a reminder of why this work matters so deeply.

Holding space for remembrance, compassion, and hope for change 💜

A gentle note for your week 🪷

There’s something I’ve been reflecting on lately… how important it is to have small moments in our week where we can simply pause.

To breathe.
To soften.
To come back to ourselves.

I’ve been continuing to hold space in different ways recently — nature walks, workshops, in person classes and within the Moving with Grief community — and I’m always reminded how powerful it is to be in spaces where nothing needs to be fixed… where we’re simply allowed to be just as we are. 🌈

For those who are part of my in-person yoga classes, you hopefully received an email with some important updates…if you would like to be kept in the loop regarding classes please send me a DM

And for those here in this wider community — I’m so grateful you’re here 🤍 🪷

I’m also slowly creating some gentle, pre-recorded classes for those who prefer to practise at home or aren’t local.

If this is something you feel drawn to, you’re very welcome to send me a message — I’d love to include you as I build this offering.

🪷

And here is a small practice to take into your week:

Place one hand on your heart, one on your belly.
Close your eyes (or soften your gaze).
And simply notice your breath… just as it is.

Nothing to change. Nothing to do.
Just being with yourself.

💛

With love,
Michelle

If your week (or inbox) feels full… but something still feels missing…

Maybe you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stressed, a little disconnected… or quietly craving deeper connection.

This might be for you.

Each week, I share a heartfelt email with my community —
blending yoga, real life, and simple ways to come back to yourself.

It’s a space for reflection, gentle guidance, and small, meaningful practices you can carry into your everyday life.

A place to pause… breathe… and reconnect.

No overwhelm. No pressure.
Just something real to land in.

The beautiful Michelle Jordan from Expanding Wings - Holistic Yoga will lead our upcoming Moving with Grief session this Saturday. Michelle is one of our many volunteers who give their time and skills to contribute to a community that offers support at times of grief. Grief because we lost someone or something we love, grief about the state of the world, grief about the inevitable changes that shape our lives. Michelle will offer some gentle yoga and co-create a space that is safe, gentle and respectful for us to come together to soften, relax and share. This is a free event. Please book to reserve your space https://www.trybooking.com/DLNNO

Turning 49… and reflecting on what really matters 🪷

I spent the weekend in one of my favourite places, Scotts Head, celebrating my birthday with family… and taking a little time to pause and reflect on the year that’s been.

The challenges, the growth, the healing… and all that life has asked of me.

What I came back to, in the end, was a deep sense of gratitude.

For the people who have truly been there for me.For the friendships that have held and supported me.And for this practice of yoga… something that has been like coming home to me for over 30 years.

Yoga continues to support me through life — not by removing the hard parts, but by helping me meet them with a little more presence, compassion, and ease.

And this is why I teach.

🪷 Offerings this week (link in bio)

🪷 Thursday 4:45pm – Gentle Holistic Yoga

🪷 Friday 11:30am – Holistic Chair Yoga

🪷 And this Saturday 2pm, I’m really honoured to be guiding gentle yoga for a special Moving with Grief free community gathering.

You are so welcome. (Link in comments to book)

🌕 As we move towards the full moon this Friday, a time that often brings a sense of fullness and illumination, you might notice things feeling a little heightened…

Wherever you find yourself — in expansion, in tenderness, or somewhere in between — you are welcome here.

And as I step into this next year, I feel deeply grateful… for this practice, and for this beautiful community that continues to show up.

If you’d like to receive my weekly emails (they’re a little more personal and reflective), you can sign up via my website 💛
