25.01.2022 I dont know about you but some days are tiring. I try and switch off and pretend that this current World is livin my best life but I cant ignore the darkness that I feel. Seasons will change and Im a strong believer in the universal code; that good always overcomes - but far out, this birthing process of what ever comes next is painful and arduous and exhausting. Anyone got the remote control to fast forward past this so we can just watch the happy ending together? #darwinpilates #smallbusinessnt #supportlocalnt #ntlife #mylove #lovewhereilive #fitnessnt #darwinlife #thestruggleisreal

25.01.2022 On the weekend I presented a workshop for our clients on pain. Having lived with chronic pain for as long as I can remember, my relationship with the subject is intimate, raw and colourful. Over the years I have learned to not only listen to my body but to love myself because of the pain. If you have felt pain you know just how difficult it is to truly love yourself through the struggle and how easy it is to hand over your power, your innate wisdom for the promise of a quick... fix or faster relief. The truth is, pain is emergent. It comes from anywhere and everywhere; it can envelop us in darkness and destroy our happiness; or it can empower us and teach us to listen to the whispers and allow us clarity and freedom if we are true to ourselves. When I truly learned to listen to my body I took back my power; when I understood my body that knowledge gave me protection; and when I learnt to love myself unconditionally I was able to give myself the time and space to overcome. #pain #darwinpilates #workshop #pilateslife #pilatesinstructor

21.01.2022 If there is one thing I wish for all of us is to be forever a student. When we view the World through the lens of a student, we are open to learning, to growth and to the on flow that comes with that openness. This weekend I have the honour of learning from our reformer students as they embark on their own journey towards becoming a teacher.... Whilst I present the work as I know it, there is never a workshop presented that I dont learn just by looking through the lens of someone new. #darwinpilates #pilatescommunity #pilateseducation

17.01.2022 Nothing worthwhile happens overnight - but it does happen. This quote hung beside my bed for 12 months when I was doing my teacher training to become a Pilates instructor. It has so many meanings it meant I would become the teacher I wanted to become if only I put in the time it meant I could heal from the pain I had lived with for so long if only I put in the time... it meant I would grow spiritually if only I put in the time it meant I would learn to forgive if only I put in the time it meant I could become anything if only I would put in the time Every day in every way I still get better and better. #darwinpilates #pilatesdarwin #pilatesreformer #pilatesinstructor #pilatesmat #darwin #supportlocalnt #darwinnt

15.01.2022 Some days are better than others

15.01.2022 Sometimes when we have our hand in everything, we get stuck, spinning on an axis but never going moving forwards. It can be hard to focus - to stick with one thing - to know when to say no and to recognise when things are good just the way they are. To let go of ego and accept what we have, be gracious for what is in front of us. Something inside us tries to dismantle the path we are on when things are working and we start looking for the next thing - so we can do ALL the thi...ngs because we dont want to miss out on ANY thing. FOMO is real. A slow realisation reminds us that we were in fact on the path already, and all we need to do is go back to what was working - not always seeking more or something else or the thing we fear is missing because things are whole just the way they are. Pilates can be that constant. Bringing us back to the now, back to our body, back to the mind that is present. So when we deviate from the path, looking for something that may or may not be there, we bring ourself back to the mat because that is where the magic happens - always.

15.01.2022 Once a week we make bone broth and we use the broth to nourish our body in soups, as bases for bolognaise, laksa, pie, stir-fry and even as a warm drink on its own. Bone broth has been used for Millenia for its nourishing, healing properties and as a strong advocate for traditional, primal and cultural eating, this has always been a staple in our house hold and a go to when we are feeling under the weather, injured or in need of some immune support which is why we make sure w...e have always got some broth on hand because the best medicine is always preventative. The recipe is super easy and the most important measure is that everything is certified organic, spray free and grass fed. We only support small biz - local where possible and we never trust the big supermarkets when it comes to buying food because we know that even their organic produce is sprayed with disease giving chemicals to make sure they last longer than nature intended. This batch is beef broth. To ensure we get all the life giving minerals out of the bones we leave them to soak on low in the slow cooker for 24 hours. Heres what you need: 3 big beef or lamb bones 1 onion cut roughly 4 cloves garlic smashed 1 tbspoon organic sea or Himalayan salt 1/2 tbspoon organic peppercorn Splash of apple cider vinegar A decent Sprinkle of your fav herbs (we buy a roast and cut out the bone to use and then BBQ the meat separately but you can buy bones as long as they are grass fed organic) Pop it all in the slow cooker. Fill with filtered water and cook on slow for 24 hours. Beef & lamb broth is proven, traditional recipe for: joint & ligament health gut health supports the immune system improves brain function increases energy assists healing helps you sleep better makes you regular synthesises minerals & vitamins

14.01.2022 Mantra for the day

14.01.2022 Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation - Robert Kennedy #darwinpilates #togetherwestand #darwin #darwincommunity #myheartmyhome #community #weareone

13.01.2022 Sometimes when we look at life through the lens of another we see a new perspective and find that things are not what they seemed. Sometimes when we step outside of our own bubble we realise that the picture is bigger than we realised and that there are many ways of looking at one scene. When we can view the World from the eyes of many some things become clearer and we can make sense of the nonsense simply by seeing things for what they really are.

13.01.2022 Are you moving with intention today?

12.01.2022 For many of us the end result is not clear. Maybe you have a vague idea of what you want it to look like or you know how you will feel when what ever is meant to happen happens but the picture is not quite clear and thats okay. All that matters is that you start, take that first step and be clear in your conviction. Know that by stepping forwards, what follows will be determined by that very first moment you made your mind up to put one foot in front of the other despite you...r self doubt or the naysayers or the memory of past experiences that held you back. Once you move in the direction of that feeling youll realise that the closer you get the clearer the path becomes and what was just a blur in the distance emerges with clarity when the moment arrives. #move #darwinpilates #darwin #darwinlife #nt #topend #topendliving #ntstyle #shoplocalnt #darwinaustralia

10.01.2022 It seems like a lifetime ago that we let them shut our doors. Never before had we realised the fragility of our existence, the compassion of our community and the strength in our heart. In the flick of a switch life can change without warning and that experience serves us daily to remind us to never never never take any day for granted. There is no reason not to live life like today is your last because if there is one lesson we have learnt in 2020, it is that beyond the dark...ness there is light and we have a choice to stand in the shadows and suffocate or stand up for what is right. #darwinpilates #ntlife #pilatescommunity #pilateslife #lovent #darwinpilates

10.01.2022 Have you ever thought what a cashless society may look like? Sure, tap and go is convenient but the reality may be a little more restricting than the initial ease that electronics offer: - no more loose change to offer the homeless guy you walk past every day - no more teaching our children how to budget with real currency - no more pocket money for kids to sneak down the shop and buy a lolly pop - no more car boot sales or garage sales to make a quick buck for your holiday/k...ids/xmas party - no more collecting coins when you travel as memorabilia ( one of the joys of travelling) - no more farmers markets - every cent you spend will be traced - electronics are hacked all the time - electronics go down (in Sweden this year which is a cashless society, banks went down for 5 days) - complete control of your money is handed over to someone else - banks charge what they want - another freedom to choose is abolished. Some of these may seem silly but real currency is a part of our ancient bartering system and gives us control over our own value and is being abolished as part of tighter controls over absolutely everything. We do not agree with your freedom being taken away - ever. If you do not have free will, what do you have? We are standing against a cashless society and you can always pay with cash and save 15%.

08.01.2022 When I created our Pilates studio I wanted everything about it to make our customers feel wonderful. From the moment you walk in the door, the sheer beauty of the place invokes feelings of calm and serenity. The floor that you walk on was hand painted by my husband. Every single flower a moment of thoughtful expression.... This first room took no less than 3 weeks to complete, after 12 hour shifts at his own job, my husband would be here in the middle of the night on his hands and knees with nothing but a headlamp, before we had installed any lighting. Each row of flowers took 2 hours to complete - you do the math as you walk into the room and realise just how much has gone into creating this beauty for you. A labour of love; our whole family commits daily to this place; no matter where we roam we are here with you in heart and spirit. These little things we havent done for the money - theres no money in love. We do it because it matters; the special touches; the effort we pour in and the commitment we make to you every single day. So next time you wander in, maybe stand for a moment on your flower of choice and know that a little piece of us stands with you on that very place. #darwinpilates #pilatesdarwin #pilatescommunity #darwincommunity #darwinnt #darwinlife #darwinstyle #supportlocalnt

08.01.2022 Some wise woman once shared with me the idea that the reformer is healing for the soul. The smooth, rolling movement enjoyed during your reformer work reminds our system of the 9 months spent in our mothers womb, followed by the rocking in her arms, half asleep in blissful awareness of your surroundings, when nothing else mattered but the pure love that only a new born will know. Whether or not what she said is true, who knows but I often think of her, a smile on my face, e...njoying the wonders of nature and our connection to life in everything we discover. #darwinfitness #darwinpilates #darwinlife #ntstyle #fitforlife #pilatesreformer #pilates #pilatescommunity #pilatesheart #soul #goodforyou

05.01.2022 Feeling the heat? Its time for a cooling snack! We choose to feed our bodies with organic goodness - no toxic chemical sprays, no endocrine disrupting additives, no mood altering colours and preservatives. Just real wholefood, grown the way nature intended. When our friends say I would love to buy organic but its so expensive, I remind myself that the cost of ill health is a far higher price to pay than buying organic food ever will be. Not only that, as a small business... owner, I choose to spend my money at other small biz ventures and I steer clear of big supermarkets as much as possible. In Darwin, our fav place to nourish our bodies is @greeniesrealfooddarwin. There really is no other substitute. This recipe is simple yoghurt or frozen berries Almonds or almond butter flakes honey Can be eaten cold or frozen for breakfast, lunch, dinner or desert
