24.01.2022 Last weekend I deleted all social media off of my phone. I've been feeling more and more like I'm consuming too much digital media, not contributing enough and getting lost in the endless scroll. After seeing a trend of weekend digital detox I decided to do it myself. I tried in the past with app timers that lock you out after a certain amount of time but that wasn't working, after seeing @corageroux deletes the apps I thought.... I could do that . Omg what a liberation! ...It was so unbelievably easy, it gave me no choice but presence, no choice but active participation, no choice but IRL. After a week of feeling disconnected in my grief it gave me a beautiful fresh dose of connection I desperately needed. . So from now on I'll be switching off entirely from all social media platforms every weekend! I'm flipping excited! Hooray for the power and joy of small changes. . . . . nicole . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #digitaldetox #presence #yogicpath

Preheat oven to 175.C In a bowl, mix the flour, the baking soda, the baking powder & the salt. Set aside. . In a large bowl, beat the butter and the peanut butter together until fluffy. Add the sugars & beat until smooth. add flaxseed, milk & vanilla extract, mix well. . Slowly add the flour mixture and mix thoroughly. optional vegan choc chips are mixed here. . Roll into balls then place on baking tray w baking paper. space out for expansion. Use fork to lightly indent each cookie but do not overly flatten. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Do not overbake. Cookies may appear to be underdone, but they are not. . Eat them. . Let me know if you give these a go! xx #vegan #plantbased #cookie #delicious #ahimsa See more

21.01.2022 So lately I've been thinking a lot about concepts of alchemy. This idea of a subtle mixing and transmutation of matter. How each and every person is a unique creation of inheritance, experience, adversity, personality and growth. Each personal quality interacting with each individual event to create lenses through which you will see and interact with the world. . It really is true. No one will ever be you. It is impossible to replicate your life, your experience, you. . How... wonderfully incredible and beautiful. How very necessary you are to the environment around you. How no one could replace you. . How wonderful that you are here. . . Annie xxx See more

17.01.2022 Do you ever feel excited for no reason? Sometimes I get these little waves of excitement and joy and I can't think of a thing it's singularly related to, it reminds me that despite the horrors of the world around us, I still have an unending list of things to be deeply grateful for. Three things I'm grateful for today: 1. That I can turn the heater on in my home, any time I need. That I have warm clothes and a safe warm home to return to every evening. 2. That I am constan...tly blessed with the presence of loving people. In my personal life and my work, the gorgeous people who come to my yoga sessions and share so generously with me their inner world. My heart overflows with gratitude. 3. The beautiful creative hair colour and the time @atarahwellness gave me with this fresh organic blue. It's totally refreshed me and I'm overjoyed. Thank you Jess! You're a wonderful artist xx . . .

16.01.2022 Feeling replenished and satisfied after a full day cooking and teaching yoga on Saturday. I love the very beginning of cold weather it makes me want to cook comforting food, so naturally I made roasted cherry tomato sugo (with roasted garlic) to put over tasty pastas and used some of it as a divine base for lentil and spinach baby pies. (Best with sweet tomato chutney) . . . I feel so grateful for all of this divine local produce that's so available to me here and all the s...atisfying nourishing things I can create with it . The red lentils were even grown by @botanecology just down the road! How's that for local! Best Christmas gift ever . . . How satisfying is the red from these over ripe tomato? . . I hope you're also moving in to your week feeling renewed and ready for whatever might be ahead of you! . .

16.01.2022 I am grieving the loss of a much loved one. Along with my family, who each grieve in their own way. . We know grief is not a linear process. We know it is experienced by us all differently. . May my heart and yours heal from our losses, but for now I hope for space and time, and the teachings of my yoga practice to nurture me as I move through this. I hope in the future to share my chosen restorative practices for times like these, in the meantime:... .

15.01.2022 Louis loves a headstand, he literally flopped on to my face as soon as my legs were up. . . I've been thinking a lot about personal asana practice vs going to classes. I feel like people always talk about asana practice in terms of tapas or discipline. Those who know me well know that discipline isn't exactly my favourite word... . .... For me personal asana practice is more about practicing sequences of my own creative design, getting to play, taking some extra time to try out new things, working on progression or exploring shapes without pressure. Being in my body and with myself . . Classes are a beautiful way to continue to learn, connect with community and make sure you don't get in to a rut, even as a yoga facilitator myself I love going to classes and learning from others, being inspired by their words and teaching and also for the challenge... I'm such a softie in my personal practice and teaching so public classes are always stretching me! Haha . . Each way of practicing offers something different, new things to learn and enjoy . . You don't have to punish to succeed. Enjoy what there is to enjoy. Especially in times like this . . Annie Xxxx . . . . . . . . . . . . . #asana #practice #yoga #thoughts #tapas? See more

12.01.2022 Now that it's really winter here in South Australia (and I have my hands on that fermented sesame-not-soy sauce) it's time for delicious, delicious vegetable dumpling soup! . . This light broth and dumplings is supposed to be beneficial for keeping the chest healthy and the sinuses clear, but mostly for me it's because it's delicious and full of yummy veggies! It took me a total 20mins to make. You make dumplings? Great! If not buy some- it'll still be delicious! . . Dumpling... soup for two . . Vegetable stock of choice 1litre 2 spring onions 1/2 fresh chili (optional for all you @meghannlawrance 's out there!) 4 tablespoons of soy sauce) 1-2tbsps sesame oil 1 heaped teaspoon sugar optional few bits of grated ginger Serve of noodles of choice (wheat, soba, hokkien) 1 bunch of pak/bok choy Handful of dried mushroom* 2 tablespoons of dried seaweed* see alts below 12 dumplings (no one is judging you for store bought) . Method: Get a pot on to boil your water for steaming. Cheat- use this boiling water to cook or blanch your noods too! Get a second pot on with your vege stock of choice bring to the boil. throw your dried seaweed and mushrooms into a bowl, cover with tap water let sit for up to 15mins rescue your blanched noods throw into the bottom of your serving bowls, lay your bokchoy over the top (raw chopped rinsed- you know the drill) get your dumplings steaming (12mins or as packet says) add your soy sauce, sesame oil and sugar to your stock (this is where you add your optional ginger) turn down the heat, to keep it simmer/hot drain and rinse your dried mushrooms and seaweed, add to bowls dumplings done? Well add them to your bowls too! add your chili and spring onion to your soup stir, turn off the heat and pour over your bowls é Viola! . . eat! . .

08.01.2022 Yin Yoga on today lovely friends. It's definitely that time of the week where we really need to relax a little and also enjoy a gentle stretch. . 7.30pm ACST (Adelaide) 8.00pm AEST (east coast Aus) 6.00pm AWST (west Aus)... 11.00am BST (UK) 12.00pm CEST (EU) . Follow link in bio to Book . . Not familiar with yin? . Yin yoga is a slow paced style that incorporates principles of traditional Chinese medicine. Most positions are taken laying or sitting on the floor and relaxed in to for longer periods to help engage and create space in the fascia- the tensile watery tissue between your skin and muscle. This helps with joint mobility, improve circulation and reduce stiffness or soreness. . . Yin is deeply balancing and rejuvenating practice that also allows introspection and rest. . . If you're curious book in to tonight and give it a go, beginners are always welcome . . Annie Xxxx . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #liveonline #yoga #yinyoga #stretchitout See more

08.01.2022 ALL Black Lives Matter. As we stand with black Americans against the horrendous abuse, brutality and mistreatment that they have endured, we must acknowledge and stand with Aboriginal Australians against the historical and current mistreatment, brutality, abuse and subjugation they have suffered. It's is NOT OKAY that 432 Aboriginal Australians have died in custody since 1991. I have found https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/ a helpful initial source of ways to get started su...pporting in America and includes some sources for here in Australia. As well as bangersandmash excellent page how you can support indigenous communities now. https://tinyurl.com/y7ehttu2 It includes petitions, donation options and resources for learning. #blacklivesmatteraustralia #aboriginallivesmatter

07.01.2022 Sometimes when I'm facilitating a yoga asana class whatever the style, when there are guided moments of "checking in", I often notice someone staring frustrated or seemingly bored in to the distance. . There is so many things I want to say to this, but firstly and most importantly, that's okay! . It's okay if it's taking work to slow down, it's okay if you're not "in the practice" right away. It's something that develops through continued practice, but even then... ... . Every day is different and we are different every day, or at least I feel this to be true of myself. It would be unfair to expect us to come to our mat and practice "perfectly" on any day let alone every day. . The subtler experiences of yoga are wonderful and truly build through compassionate practice. Which applies to us as yoga teachers just as much as it does to new yoga students. So if you practiced today like I did and struggled, that's okay, tomorrow is a new day with new offerings and experiences. . Sometimes I find it very easy to tune in, others it takes a bit of work and time; and as my practice continues, my awareness of self and the endless subtleties of yoga expands too. . . So be kind to you. . . . Annie xxxx . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #yogaasana #subtlepractice See more

06.01.2022 So last week I got really sick. Really sick- exhaustion sick. . Everything in my body felt dry, my chest, my sinuses, my throat felt like fire and my nervous system like lightening. (For my beautiful yogis concerned I did get a covid test and it was negative ). I had pushed myself too much, which is in my nature to do and simply sleeping a little more was not going to fix what I had done. .... Abhyanga was truly a soothing balm that made up a significant portion of my recovery routine. This gorgeous Ayurvedic practice of self massage with dosha specific warm oil is so nourishing and rejuvenating giving time and space to soothe and self care (as well as making your skin crazy soft) . I use light sesame oil with ashwagandha, but there are a range of in-your-cupboard oils that suit other doshas. . Have you every tried Abhyanga? .
