Welcome
Eventually we all realise that we are creating our own lives through repeating our old stories
Time for change – then what yo have will also shift
How to change?
The culmination of decades of my helping women when ‘nothing else has worked’. When desperate to release our own shackled self – secrets burbling hidden for decades – we need gentle self acknowledgement.
My life’s work culminating in a self paced undo what ails you Gentling Yourself course –
That course is the desperation answer within a community – all of us are working with the inner demons and why always whatever people do to /with you – does not necessarily ‘work’
Up before this – a smaller course . . Why does it hurt?
It is the LIFE that is the issue – not the bits hurting.
A few other courses also will also be done.
As well as the info on the app itself – so much to be done – and the traipsing about the county is only to service D and I – and that will end with us being back at home and me doing an intensive with a woman from GV (jabbed) I get to send how I can stop that affecting me). PLUS the next courses – hopefully I will get pain one up (Why does it hurt?) and then still the Gentling one – you get access to all as a thank you for holding this space whilst I attempt.to get it all organised. .
The weather is changing and our body must adapt .
HEALTH – the ability to adapt to change. . What are YOU hanging onto?
That is the crux over the Gentling Yourself course. ‘Left overs’ – life residue are using up too much ‘band width
CHALLENGE
We all need to declutter – within us – habits, programmed and hopes all will stay the same – BUT life does not.
Seasons of the day – month and year and life all impinge – thus the best thing – is to enjoy each moment, each encounter and every day .
Get a tape measure. Not the scales – can do that also – BUT measure yourself. The flab/extra is what upsets all of us. Me – I put on a fat apron – never had before as a stress response to the Passion app issue – they take $$ and the carrot dangle s- hence – not sleeping, not eating, body is silly mode. . we likely can all relate. Measure what? not the usual stats that the men had for checking ‘beauty’ we need to fill in the sheet provided . .here
The inner alchemy poster – what happens to keep us alive
We likely also carry too much (weight) on our frames.
PLUS it is there usually as we have DAMP and thus Heat sitting where it is not designed to be . .
Whilst we could see the portion size and what we eat shrink
What is required is more stomach ACID so any aspect of not digested (Damp) is attended to
FOOD FACTORY . . . .
The coins – stand in for the excess life force (Jing) inherited inner ‘bank account’ we store IF the process is life supportive, not entrenched in digestive distress – we are only as good as our gut. The inner caldron – can’t ‘cook’ and assimilate the nutrients and discharge what is waste if it is too cool .
The red lines: the flows of Qi – the blue flows – the essence of the Qi and body fluids that keep life living
MUST have a warm belly – no cold put in . .
And if the skin feels cool to touch – nothing will work as designed this is crucial – past 2 of my Triage. .
1 – Calm the Shen – in the Gentling Yourself course.
2 – Pull out cold /retrieve the Yang Qi (the navel pulling and moxa component of all I did in clinic
3 – Free the scars . .
Before this – the Free Your Own Qi is needed – which is part of the action component in Gentling Yourself . . Here is the free link . .
I suggest that you start here first – as it contains the WHY . .
The HOW to fit this is to set aside a little time every day and get started ..
as change only happens when YOU change what you are doing . . suggested morning routine . . . From my 2001 Living as Energy book
FREE YOUR QI – all life is movement – and when we do . . . STUCK can’t stay STUCK
1 – get the poo and fluids moving first
2 – Then the skin . ..(dry skin brush)
3 – Then the entire body with breath . .
Even if this is accomplished initially in a chair
Breathe in when stretching, and breathe out when scrunching your body up.
Traditionally practiced at sunrise to honor the sun as a source of vitality and life, the sequence flows from backbend to forwardbend synchronized with inhalation and exhalation. There are variations to poses depending on the style and lineage of yoga practiced. Sun salutation because it’s a sequence that has (almost) everything you need. The 12 postures linked together energize the body, improve flexibility and mobility, and help focus the mind.
Here is watch this Maybe see here https://health.clevelandclinic.org/sun-salutation
Sun salutation, or Surya Namaskar, is one of the most fundamental and powerful sequences in yoga. This basic flow is often incorporated in beginner, intermediate, and advanced yoga classes. It is a complete physical exercise and meditation in motion—promoting a breath-and-movement connection that cultivates inner awareness.
Sun salutation is a sequence of yoga poses performed in a continuous flow and is synchronized with the breath. It is traditionally practiced at sunrise as a way to honor and connect with the energy of the sun. It is often practiced as a warm-up before a full yoga session or as a standalone practice to build strength, flexibility, and mindfulness, which is why it is an essential part of many yoga traditions.
Sun salutation consists of a series of poses that transition smoothly into one another, synchronizing movement with breath. Each movement corresponds with either an inhalation or exhalation, creating a dynamic meditation that energizes the body, enhances focus, and calms the mind. This practice dates back thousands of years and remains a foundational sequence in many yoga styles, including Hatha, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa.

BENEFITS YOU FIRST . . . When you practice sun salutations regularly, you will notice several physical, mental, and emotional benefits:
Improved gratitude and connection: Traditionally a form of sun worship, it fosters a sense of appreciation and connection to nature.
Improved flexibility: Each movement lengthens and stretches different muscle groups, increasing overall flexibility.
Muscle strength: This flow encourages the engagement of muscles, including your core, legs, and arms, which helps build endurance and muscle tone.
Enhanced circulation: The rhythmic flow of movement and breath increases blood circulation and oxygenates the body.
Improved cardiovascular health: Repeated rounds elevate the heart rate (that is why it’s a great warm-up exercise), boosting overall cardiovascular fitness.
Better posture: The practice encourages spinal alignment and strengthens postural muscles.
Reduced stress and anxiety: The combination of movement and breath calms the nervous system.
Increased focus and mindfulness: Synchronizing breath with movement enhances concentration and awareness.
High energy levels: Sun salutations stimulate the body’s energy channels, promoting vitality and alertness.
