22.01.2022 A heart will break thousands of times... often in one day. We livin in sum wild moments. . ...and that ache, those stories. You know the ones. They strike a chord & that all to familiar longing makes itself known. Stirring our resting giants of fear & the accompanying thoughts that hijack peace... . .... The practice. Dig deep. Trust in the grace of one sweet breath to free up places that grip. .. . . Rest in the silence of this moment that is created to facilitate healing. Healing as a remembering that you are already whole... . . The truth that resides will shatter the mind & awaken the heart into a thousand whispers of how this moment is indeed supported. A heart that radiates all the love ever wanted... . . It is found right here. In this very moment, a conversation of harmony that the spirit knows very well... . . You will find it because you are here, on this path of active healing... . . Purposeful, compassionate intent to realign with the grace of being alive. As a birth rite, a purchased ticket to this journey of expansion... . . Breathe to remember and create the space the heart seeks. What would it feel like, to once again trust this journey? The sweet, messy, broken & whole journey?.. . . You will find the stoke to restore radiance because there is a part of you that already has. . .

22.01.2022 She was a 67 year old Indian mumma... and in the only way such a question can be asked - dripping with love, she said... Is it possible to live so defensively, we never really live at all?.. . . This question. It pulled at me - so I have been listening. . .... Opening to meet the defences that have been built up with bricks of expectations & misunderstanding.. The walls that protect something that doesn’t need or has never asked for any armour . . How views shape into solid structures that life will never fit into. .. . . This question comes as a reminder . . There is always room for things to show up in completely unexpected ways. .. . . To shake narrow vision back into the expanse of what love knows. .. . . That the rhyme & reason for the way life flows, is far greater then any rationale a mind can offer. .. . . The space that keeps the mystery & wonder alive is what I am interested in remembering and bowing too. . See more

22.01.2022 The sweet little fusion of sunshine, tunes & sand everywhere - a momentary soak in deep breaths & collective juju. I went into 2020 blissfully unaware at how much we need each other. I come out the other side humbled & thankful to have had the chance to remember. Sundays in January, will bring more moments to gather - the classes might end up being 9 hours long cause I am just that excited to flow with y’all. ... Keep an eye on The Space Wellbeing for schedule details

21.01.2022 Three new classes - now streaming in the Online Studio . . Each class has Toms live tunes to guide us through PLUS one very special Bob Marley sesh recorded live at Woodford Folk Festival .. .... . Link here for access - https://online.truespiritrevival.com/ See more

21.01.2022 Sometimes, hearing anothers experience brings a solidarity or a boost of confidence to try something new. .. . . These words melted me. .. .... . A thank-you with my whole heart for coming along this journey. .. . . Getting stretchy & emotional plus the odd dad joke in front of a camera was not how i anticipated 2020 rolling out - BUT sharing yoga via an online platform is something has brought so many beautiful surprises, gifts and 100% reaffirms the power of this practice that extends far beyond the walls that contain us (inner & outer). .. .

20.01.2022 Insert eye roll and casual shrug like 'yeah I get it' . . Cause we talkin’ about self love. ....Continue reading

19.01.2022 I am not flexible enough to do yoga. I can’t sit still. Yoga is so fcuking boring. I have thought them ALL and of course, after teaching for a decade heard them all. Sooo. This comes as a gentle reminder. ... One of the biggest barriers to yogic states (compassion, ease, mojo) is the idea that they are rare. Rare meaning only possessed by a few god chosen do gooders that an actually touch their toes or who have straight ‘A’ children, a clean house & look forward to Christmas with their in-laws. But if we really take a look at this thing called ‘flow state’ - that the traditional teachings so generously point to We understand pretty quickly that this sense of ease couldn’t be more common. Peace as a common function of our natural state. Readily available for all by the sheer fact that grace is not something we have to create, or do, or try on, but it is something we already freeeeeking are. We all over here like I need some space, I gotta get out into nature completely forgetting that we ourselves are in fact, nature - the same equanimity of that natural, raw, complex & yet flawless beauty applies to all inner states of being human. Nature and how bodies are composed are two & the same. It is so obvious the beauty around us, and yet somehow we have become blinded to the same farking glorious displays of magic dancing within us. Laws of this nature prove genius cycles of creativity, expansion, contraction, renewal & letting go. ie; the most practical application of flexibility is to welcome our own unique expression, our own personal flow state. The basis of this practice (yoga; finding freedom) is not at all theoretical, it is completely experiential. Ways to experience the life sustaining beauty that welcomes the current story wholeheartedly. Since this flow of life is all that exists on a fundamental level and is reflected back to us consistently in every moment - finding grace can’t be rare or difficult unless we insist that it is. When we drop the barrier that this whole thing of peace is a rare by-product of perfection, we have a direct opening to receive & move & be. With it all. Just as it is without strain or resistance. Like a little freaking Buddha as peaceful as can be. No more & certainly no less. And soLife doesn’t need to be doing better, cause it just gonna do what life does flow on. We can finally take refuge in exactly where we are, trusting the innate capacity to breathe fully along the way. So we practise yoga and take any perfection out of it. Time on the mat can include falling, fidgeting, farting whatever. Just practise as a celebration or curious study of where peace, compassion, strength & joy arise naturally. Not an escape from life but to help us enter life more fully.

19.01.2022 My stress gathers in my throat. I can feel the coiled up density. The most illusive kind - the sort that I can never put my finger on and is much bigger then a bad day. Some call it a natural a part of the feminine cycle, waves of emotion to humble us and create deep wells of wisdom, the only way that wisdom can truly be trusted via experience. ... They say heaviness of these cycles (personal & collective) are only willing to move with time and grace and slowing down. Learning that the remedies change, just like the daily rhythms is the best alignment cue I have ever received. A sincere honouring of what is alive in the moment even when it is irrational or shameful. Not to impose to fix, but a remedy to allow what is current - to be a gateway to enter the moment and this life more fully. Life was never meant to be censored. Yaaaahhhh we are wearing masks and yet the ability to be in direct communication with the most human aspects is something this pandemic is teaching me in great detail. A deep connection to ourselves and each other, to all (not just the chosen) cycles of the current story is so vital and yet it is so staggeringly rare. A welcoming of emotions & waves of expansion as equally as the contraction. The pressure of this human experience is lifted when there is room for the mystery. Leaving space for surprise just like this life does, without apology. Not in the grandiose kind of way but a quiet acknowledgement of the ever changing landscape that is this internal experience. A respect for the deep human cycles of grief and love. Slowly but surely it becomes more clear that this reverence is incomplete when only based on a curated identity of ‘shoulds’. Respect, reverence and power comes when the surprises within this feminine spirit flows without invitation or need for applause. This chaos that we are - sadly is often only valued when it is seen to be beautiful or convenient or predictable. None of the qualities could ever contain the whole story that is the undeniable mystery & grace which feeds each and every cycle. The raw & untamed expressions that are to complex to fit into any construct of living. So yes, my breath has been shallow today - constricted around the prospect of having to fit into another day of expectations (usually self perpetuated). I come back again and again to the complexity of what it means to be human and how narrow my idea of that can sometimes be. At the junction between patterns outgrown and the courage to not need to know, there is a glimmer of surprise and awe that relieves heaviness and carves out space for ease, for love, for forgiveness and for a deep reverence for the whole journey.

16.01.2022 Sit back, relax & enjoy the ride We are bathing in the new (dark) moon energy until April 24. With much intention & heart I have put together a Yin yoga class - it is ONLINE NOW <3 ... New moon cycles move us inward so that we may know ourselves more fully and while that sounds super lovely - rarely do we take the time to bathe in what the planets are brewing. I hope this offering will give the time & space to deeply land in this current cycle and get curious about what it might have to offer you. April 22 (Northern Hemisphere) & 23 (Southern Hemisphere) marks a New Moon in Taurus. This stabilizing, fixed, unique and revolutionary New Moon will bring us into the Light of new values and the need to compare information to make sure we’re seeing things the way they actually are (internal & externally). www.online.truespiritrevival.com Please help share this post & tag your loves who might be keen for a internal tune up <3 With love, Kim xo

14.01.2022 This whole journey. .. . . Finding formlessness within the form. ..... . . Sourcing expansion within inner & circumstantial confinement. .. . . Our ability to adapt as our greatest human gift. .. . . Surrender as our most reliable ally. .. . . And yet. .. . . We embody our stress in a way that has become so natural, which means it never gets questioned. .. . . it has somehow become normal to relate to with defence & reaction, a direct correlation to the way we so often meet ourselves. .. . . Thought patterns rooted in trauma that continue to withhold love from the broken places that are calling for it. .. . . I guess the paradox of it all... . . Finding a nurturing moment to - Embrace the pain and escape our stories, which inevitable allows us to escape the pain and embrace all current stories.. . . Online studio has been a labour of LOVE for this very paradox of both yoga and life. .. . . Yoga; time out that delights in our humanness and says bring me your chaos this simple willingness to show up (for one breath or one class or half a class or a class interrupted by little humans, it all counts) any time set aside for the true self to be nurtured naturally begins to expose a rhythm within all chaos. .. . . May the journeying be blessed..

13.01.2022 Gather /að/ Definition: Bring together & take in from scattered places or sources. .. .... . Doors to the Yoga studio will be re-opening and we can jam together once again. .. . . We are here. Warrnambool is now home long term! This means the studio / collective space / @tomrichardsonmusic is all yours.. . . The last few months have been spent dreaming up how this space will come to life & ways in which it can continue to support the traditional teachings of yoga in a modern context and the all inclusive nature that nurtures tights hamstrings or tight heartstrings.. . . A space to set all turbulence aside and reveal the subtle, yet profound whispers of life taking care of life.. . . Moments to come home to a self that remains unbound... . . Beyond grateful for the way all things have come together to support this beautiful beast, so amped to share more juicy deets soon .. . . **Once the studio opens, online classes will continue to thrive with sessions, workshops, live class options and tunes updated weekly

11.01.2022 These feetcarry us along as each passing day has its wear & tear on the body. Eventually leading us into the beautiful hands of aging... . I am forever captured by the sweetness of all things old & worn down. It is such a gift. Isn't it?? To get old. .. . To let life wash through us in such a way that even our bones get tired. ..... . So many stories & moments that have nurtured, aged & imprinted years of wisdom, laughter & grief. .. . The lines drawn on faces quietly expressing both the immense joy & unfathomable heartache of this precious human life experienced fully. .. . A great honour, that is denied to many, this beauty & grace of aging. .. . . As the body wears & lower back aches, the soul shines even brighter, revealing character & qualities of the divine heart without any trying or doing, just simply by being See more

10.01.2022 Online studio. Yoga flow in your lounge room (pants are optional). www.online.truespiritrevival.com While I am stoked to share three new classes with you the titles for the flows are always a tricky game for me.... What I really want to call ALL classes is Lock the funking door and get down with your super fly, radiant & freeeeeeeeeee self Anyways, to give a sense of direction for what these new classes offer, here are different titles (with the same ‘breathe-easy-shake-ya-groove-thang-back-to-feeling-at-home-within-body, mind & heart meaning). i love you. ps. Tom Richardson loves you too... and he laid down some super smooth live tracks for these classes!

08.01.2022 Classes kick off January 3rd <3

08.01.2022 Laughter equals medicine. .. . Old pic of a special moment... . The giggles... another form of emotional digestion that absorbs nutrients and extracts some of our inner bullshit. A soothing balm that dissolves any thoughts taken too seriously for this sitcom that is our precious human life ..... . Within these sweet little laughter swells, a raw-ness appears. By definition being raw is termed as strong & undisguised. What a gift. The space of vulnerability that allows connection to thrive . . Loving you in this moment with joyful anticipation of some laughter medicine together soon. .. . . See more

06.01.2022 A home inside a home - was the wish for these online classes. A real cozy place to land, with flows intended to celebrate all inner & outer movements, creating space to breathe easy right where we are. The process of filming has been therapeutic, wildly prolific in many creative ways. ... Carving out time to focus solely on feeling into your video requests and finding ways to bring them to life has been a fun experiment. So keep the requests coming. I hear you. My friend Dihan (who doubles as a creative wizard) put together this little video. I am both thankful and hopeful the heart-waves of this space will continue to keep us connected to each other & to the deepest aspects of self. Yeeiiwwww!! <3 Thank-you so much for sharing - it helps us heaps and keeps this rolling especially when shared with your own insights & experience. www.online.truespiritrevival.com

06.01.2022 We miss you. So here is a pic of @tomrichardsonmusic ... Putting in tha werk to becoming a master daydreamer .. . Daydreaming is a highly sought after state of being that can only be attained through lifetimes of devotion to aimless moments & remembering to forget all about everything besides the sweet little nothing thoughts that erupt from the heart. ..... . . It’s easy to tell the origin of thought eruption, the heart or brain, cause one keeps the dreamer in states of the dream while the other hijaks peace & makes even the sweetest moment just another day job.. instead of daydream. .. . . Sincere reverence & faithful consistent practice in the daydream art will realign any turbulent mind messes back into a heart mess which is usually more interesting. .. . . .May your daydream practice be inspired, it helps if ya forget the to-do list... even for a hour. .. . . Warning hours can easily turn into weeks, or even years. Tread into your daydream practice with caution... See more

05.01.2022 Movement heals <3 Three new classes are ready for ya! www.online.truespiritrevival.com

05.01.2022 We are back in lockdown soon and all I can think about it how you are doing. This community, sure it is a virtual connection but in my heart of hearts your story is one I hold so dearly and think about every single day. .. . My mind has been wandering into your kitchen & lounge room, into your journey and wondering if you are ok? Maybe it is because I have been broken down over these last few months more times then I care to count and wow - the power of heartache is the stron...gest pathway for connection. .. . Some of you, I feel so blessed to cross paths with down the street or at the beach (don’t worry no sneaky hugging nonsense exchanged) and yet some of you live so far away that when I am brushing my teeth to go to bed, you are trying to get the kids out the door to school. .. . And yet, here we are connected not only through these virtual windows but through the human journey. .. . The dance of joy and love and heartbreak and ughhhh all of it - I would love to hear how you are doing. .. . Yes I really wanna know cause something about sharing and receiving how you are in this very moment in time is a gift. Heres why . Every time you tell your story and someone else cares enough to witness it, you turn off the body's stress responses, flipping off toxic stress hormones like cortisol and epinephrine and flipping on relaxation responses that release healing hormones like oxytocin, dopamine, nitric oxide, and endorphins. .. . That is a fuuuuuccckkkk yes for me at the moment - a little connection break. .. . In one word or wayyyyyyyy to many. Blabbering is welcomed. For you & for me, your story is of immense value - all aspects of it. .. . I care. So much, about how your world is turning and I know someone else reading this will too. .. . When things are hitting the heart the only thing left to do is hold space for each other to share, reflect & be in the midst of it all. .. . So please. Tell me. How are you? See more

04.01.2022 Studio Updates & the heart of the matter . . A few months ago, after loosing $100 000 over night (thanks covid), we decided to drop the rest of our dollars on opening a space right here in our new (old, but now we ain’t going anywhere) home!.. .... . Inspired to give our traveling feet a rest (thanks covid ) and create a studio that fosters belonging and gives rise to the inner journeys that take us much further then any airplane ever could... exploring the most breathable aspects of self. .. . . And while our SUPER generous building buddies are pretty tired of me looking at Pinterest, each detail & the effort required to make it all juuuuuust right have been created to hold and reflect the sweetest aspects of peace & resilience that reside inside us all, a space to remember to flow states of freedom, healing & grace. .. . . While mucho dedication has been poured in, there have been many visible signs of invisible grace have supported the whole project, a project that I honestly thought would be completed in two weeks and here we are months later with the final stage of renos being completed (hello infrared heaters ).. . . It is all coming together. Like magic actually, the best kind of magic that teaches things along the way. .. . . Right now the lesson is Paaaaaatience. .. . . And gawd damn I thought I had this quality in the bag lately, but here we are sitting on our new hardwood floors surrounded by boxes of new yoga books to share, new mats, props, and bolsters in joyful anticipation for the room to be brought to life by the power of community and connection. .. . . Any yet with the restrictions still in place (limited to 10 yogis per class) we have decided, for both personal & government reasons to put our opening on hold for a few more weeks. .. . . Trusting the timing is an all too important part of this (and every) process. Your support along the way has been such a powerful push to keep flowing along. Thank-you so much . See more

04.01.2022 This class (link in comments). Is like having drinks with Ganesha (remover of obstacles) & Marvin Gaye (prince of soul). It is a twist flow steeped with intention. ... It felt like magic to record and came together in a perfectly spontaneous way. Hope it finds you in exactly the right timing. With so much love, Kim

03.01.2022 It all passes And yet Tell that to... A woman who’s been trying to conceive for years Someone who’s partner just left them An empty nester who’s child struggles with addiction A family with a bipolar mother Sometimes it doesn’t pass. Why has this statement been such a corner stone to the practice of wellness? We have taken this profound truth and shone it on the situation when its spotlight is meant to be turned inward. When they say it all passes, it has little to do with the nature of turbulent relationships or overdue bills. The statement points to the waves of emotion, to the feelings of overwhelm & despair- the situation might not ever change but the aches does. The frustration does, the gripping of uncertainty does. That is what passes. It eases up and what’s left in its place, is to be curiously explored. When the ache momentarily shifts and inner stability returns, the situation may be exactly the same but the ability to meet it is renewed. A strength arrives. A compassion for this personal story, providing a solid foundation for the ultimate healing balm of this human journey surrender. The marathon of being human, which inevitable includes heartbreak and uncertainty will keep rolling on in all its filth & glory - meanwhile the waves of emotion wash us clean exposing all that is miraculous, fragile, raw & beautiful. Grace surfaces and while reality keeps doing its thing, the inner battle is what passes and a softness arises. The willingness to be with both the finest & achiest details of this journey. Offering a sweet yet temporary moment of resolve until the next wave washes through.

02.01.2022 Paying deep respect. Heavy with awareness of tragic stories, deep wounds & unjust circumstance may we find the strength to not look away. May we drop to our knees in heartache & humility for the traditions that uphold the beauty of this land. ... May we be willing to continue to learn & be moved beyond our own narrow perspectives or hidden bias. To listen to the stories of unimaginable loss & continue to insist that no aspect of this experience will ever be propped up on the wounds of another. To take a big breath & lean into the full story. All ways. May traditional wisdom not only be heard but sincerely honoured and the pain of generations that have been deeply wounded be given back platforms, presence & space. To be untethered from the residue of judgment or denial. May I own up to any of the ways my actions or ignorance might cause suffering in another. May I be willing - to stumble through the imperfections of growth & understanding to initiate deep healing that extends beyond my tiny impermanent life into the expanse of all beings.
