25.01.2022 You guys, I just completed my 200hr Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training with @powerlivingadelaide & oh my god I am overflowing with joy. . I went in full of self-doubt & questioning whether I was ready for it, but I surprised myself with just how ready I was. I’m actually quite fascinated by my own personal experience throughout this journey. . There were aspects that I expected to challenge me that I found myself moving through with ease, & then there were aspects I expected to be... quite effortless that I was incredibly challenged by. I had a bunch of interesting & unexpected triggers go off & I am so damn proud of the way I handled myself & how I consciously chose to respond to my emotional reactions & difficulties & what avenues I took to nurture myself when needed, & it has shown me just how much I have grown & developed as a human over these past few years throughout my self work. . The training itself was incredibly comprehensive & powerful. The teachers are some of the best I have ever had the privilege to work withwhich is also why I chose to undertake my studies with them& I am incredibly grateful for the way each has inspired me, encouraged me, pushed me, & supported me in their own little (& big) ways. . I have walked away from this training a far better student, teacher, & human than I walked in. I feel incredibly proud of myself for the woman that I am, the woman I am becoming, & for finally allowing myself to step into my power (& stay there)even though it feels like a lot to hold at times, I am no longer afraid of it. . I can’t wait to share with you the power & beauty of this practice, to encourage you to move & flow & breathe & tap into the capabilities, strength & infinite wisdom of your own body. . So what now? I’ll be receiving my certificate over the next couple weeks, & then I’ll be looking to teach in Adelaide & also in Loxton when I visit each month. Stay tuned for details if you’re interested in coming along for the ride. . I can’t wait to guide you back home to your body & your breath (and to make you sweat). . Caidy.X See more

25.01.2022 Love yourself harder. Make it consistent (every damn day ladies). See what happens.

25.01.2022 Playtime this afternoon. . I know there’s a metaphor somewhere here about finding balance amidst the wobbles. I know there’s something to be said here about strength and hovering the foot and realising that I didn’t actually need it for stability. I know there’s a teaching here for us all about maintaining focus on the things that we can controllike commitment to this practice or this body or this breathinstead of focusing on the things that we can’t. . Life is interesting ...and challenging and beautiful and all the things in between but most of all it is impermanent, just like pain and uncertainty, and just like each place, pose, moment or situation we find ourselves in too. I know this is a difficult time for many, but this will all change again soon; everything always does. . Keep moving. Keep breathing. And take care of you and each other. This will all be different again soon. Until then, remember the metaphorsomething to do with balance and wobbles and hovering the foot because you’re stronger than you think. See more

24.01.2022 Do not apologise for your heart.

24.01.2022 Day 5/7 - why CHANGE is a GOOD thing.

22.01.2022 We all have the potential to cause harm, but the more we heal our own wounds, the less likely we will be to cause intentional or unintentional harm.

22.01.2022 Day 1/7 - Reconnecting with you.

21.01.2022 What is your relationship like with stress?

19.01.2022 Happy new year babes. This photo depicts how I feel about the past 12 months of my life. Inlove. 2020 was an incredibly profound and beautiful year for me and I am very grateful for every moment of it For every challenge I met and every difficult thing I experienced. For every piece of growth and change I have been graced with.... For every stop sign, redirection, u-turn, ‘wait-a-minute’ and ‘not-quite-yet’ I received. For every message and piece of guidance I was offered, and for the courage I cultivated to trust it. For the lessons, the laughs, the tears, the dings and the dents. For the dances, the movement, the flow and the stillness. But most importantly, for the amount of love, friendship, support, and heartwarming connection that has flooded in, and stayed. My loves. I also understand this year has been difficult for many, and many of us have lost many things. But there is always hope in destruction, and we have always held within us the ability to rebuild ourselves and repair our hearts. If this year has been difficult for you, I hope you remember that you are always, always stronger than you think, because you are. I hope you remember that this life is frighteningly temporary, and there is undeniable beauty in understanding such fragility and impermanence. I hope you remember to breathe deeply, and to come home to your body time and time again, until you remember it is your most cherished friend, and to treat it as such. I hope you remember the kind of peace that can be found in simplicity, and that often it’s usas humanswho complicate things. I hope you remember that you are bigger than any difficult or challenging thing you ever feel or experience, and that you muster the willingness to lean in, and face it. I hope you remember that you can always reach out and ask for help, irrespective of your egos objections and stories. I hope you remember that change is the only constant, and endings are JUST beginnings. Most of all, I hope you remember that your heart IS the path, and I hope you find the courage within yourself to follow it, every time. This is my wish for you. Caidy. X

18.01.2022 Day 3/7 - How using the energy of force can be harmful to us.

18.01.2022 Time is a manmade construct. Any moment of any day can be a new beginning if you choose it to be. Never forget that you’re the author of your story and you can write it differently anytime you like.

18.01.2022 Yesterday was HARD. I was given some information that took my breath away. My heart was tender all day. My emotions were BIG. I even had moments where I questioned my capacity to hold the hurt without falling victim to the story. But I did it. Perhaps not overly well, but I still did it. And I made it to dance last night even with the wind knocked out of me and I stumbled my way through my routine telling myself ‘it’s okay, we can go home straight after this and just cry it a...ll out’. And that was my intention. Just make it through. Then leave. But then something happened. The universe whispered in my ear. I tried to ignore it, but I couldn’t ignore something so loving and reasonable‘you’ve been asking for help’, it said, ‘yet you keep running away when I send people to help you. Just stay a while here. Just relax into BEING here, with these people, right here. It’s ok’. I took a moment to calm my own inner turmoil of shit, and then I allowed myself to shift from the Masculine energy I was riding (just gotta DO this routine then get the fxck home), to the Feminine energy I was being asked to cultivate (I can just BE here; it’s okay and it’s safe for me to RECEIVE life in this moment, and this moment, and this moment). And then something beautiful happened, almost instantly. My whole night transformed into an overflow of joy. I had the most fun. I laughed so much. Because I let myself lean back and receive what life was trying to give me. Because I let people in. BE in the state of receiving. When people are trying to come in, let them. We need each other. Often more than we realise. This message is a reminder to myself, more than anyone else, but if it helps you too, good.

18.01.2022 Yes. I love this. Check in with yourself. Ground yourself. Breathe deeply into your belly. Take a moment, and come back to your body before your thoughts take you for a ride or blow things out of proportion.... There are times when our mind makes things out to be worse than they really are; as though it enjoys conjuring up the worst case scenario and/or outcome possible. But we are far more capable than we realise, especially in moments like these. We are bigger than any stress-inducing thought or uncomfortable emotion they we may feel or experience. And this not to undermine anything that you think, feel and/or the challenges you might face there (unless you’re thinking damaging or dangerous thoughts, but that’s outside of the realm of this post); all of it is relevant and nothing is wrong with you, but remember thisanytime your find yourself triggered or heading towards a stress-responseyou are bigger than all of it. Place your hand on your heartbeat, feel your feet on the ground, tell yourself ‘I am safe here’, and let yourself land in your body. You are bigger than all of it.

16.01.2022 Heading into day 4 of Yoga Teacher Training like.. . . #sore #muscles #recovery #myo #cupping #toight

16.01.2022 Something that is being driven home for me lately, is that some people are going to be uncomfortable when you stand in your power, no matter what. It doesn’t matter how humble you are; it doesn’t matter how gently you try to do it; it doesn’t matter how quietly you try to standbecause the fact is that when it comes to your power, you can’t really do it quietly anyway. It’s big, it’s strong, it’s bright (and this is so often why so many of us have such trouble owning it). Whe...n we start making moves (particularly as women), as much as it breaks my heart, there will always be some women who don’t respond welleven when we have good intentions, even when we’re not hurting anyone, and even when we’re actually trying to better this worldthere will still be some women who fall victim to their jealously and/or their own inner unhappiness, which makes it near impossible for them to be happy and supportive of others. This has always been a difficult thing for me to accept, and as a result I have often hushed myself; I have often stepped back again; I have often shrunk into the shadows to avoid being disliked or ridiculed. And I can see very clearly the times on my path that I have stifled myself by doing this. But I am being shown that it’s time; I need to accept the difficult truths of this path, and continue to rise regardless. In truth, we all do. We all need to let go of the opinions of others, and get on with doing whatever it is our heart and Soul are asking of us. (And perhaps we need to check ourselves while we’re at it tooafter all, checking ourselves is just another form of developing our own self-awareness and taking responsibility for ourselves, which in essence, is also reclaiming our powerare we the ones passing judgement on others? Are we the ones trying to pull someone else down? Are we the ones feeling uncomfortable or threatened by the success or rise of another? And if so, why? Why do we feel this way?) It’s time (it always has been). Reconnect with your power. Embody it completely. Let it move you. And do it with conviction. Do not let someone else’s shadow or opinion shackle you. Use your power to project your light, and let it fall on them too. This world needs it. This world needs you.

15.01.2022 If you care about other people opinions, you are not free.

15.01.2022 Day 2/7 - How pressure removes JOY and slows us down.

13.01.2022 Day 6/7 - why do we turn away from the things that are good for us?

12.01.2022 Calm is a choice. Available to all of us. This is where our power lies. . Come home to your body, to your breath. . Think critically and lovingly; let your internal landscape be logical and harmonious, and let your actions reflect this.

12.01.2022 Our own self-belief is the biggest contributor to our own success.

10.01.2022 Age is only a number and your path is wherever you step. Beliefs can be changed and blocks can be removed. Your life can be altered but it’s allll up to you.

09.01.2022 You are who you need. It was always you.

08.01.2022 Ask: How do I want to FEEL today? Ask: What do I need to DO to feel that way?Ask: How do I want to FEEL today? Ask: What do I need to DO to feel that way?

08.01.2022 In the morning when I wake before I even open my eyes, I put my hands on myself;... my chest my stomach my thighs. Thank you I say, thank you thank you. I love this body so much I wonder how it was ever something I use to despise. See more

07.01.2022 Is it even yoga if your fur baby doesn’t come and interrupt your practice though? I only spent 30 minutes on the mat today and it was all real simple stuff, nothing fancy here, but at least I moved my bodythat’s the important part. Keep moving babes. Your bod will love you for it.

07.01.2022 Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

06.01.2022 I finished up at the clinic in Hallett Cove this week, and oh my god did that pull on the heart strings!! I had such a beautiful experience working at this clinic over the past 12 months alongside some exquisite women. I was very well taken care of in all respects and I will always be incredibly grateful for all of the support I received during my time there. Saying goodbye to the people I crossed paths with at this clinic was the hardest part. I would like to say a massive T...HANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to Felicity, Ruth and Catherine. It was an absolute pleasure working with you all and I am very grateful for the opportunity. Thank you for your unending support, care and guidance, but mostly for your friendship. I would also like to extend a massive thank you to all of the clients I had the privilege of working with at this clinic too, please continue to take care of yourselves and remember to stay hydrated! Endings are JUST beginnings, and as much as I honour the heavy emotions that rise with goodbyes, I also welcome in the excitement for the next part of my journey. If there’s one thing I’m sure of, it’s that life is about chances, but it’s up to us to actually take those chances. Looking forward, with humility and gratitude. X
