Resting at the End of the Year

I write this on the very last day of the year of 2025, and a time where there has been a lot of change in my own life. ..

Change can bring about a feeling of unsettling, a sensation my body remembers and is always never sure. You know that sensation where your jaw/throat tightens, breathe gets tighter, mind is not settling and your not sure what to do next, stomach churning, and so much more. Change can also be a moment to ease into a flow of something and also not try to fix or change anything and just allow for what is.

So how do I be with ‘What is’?

Something I may resist more when I need it the most is familiarity, structure, routine and most importantly my rituals. When I come back to all those simple things, the body knows. The ritual of having carved out time for me, to breathe, to move, to allow what is to flow through me, in me and around me, to make no judgement and to Just Be in the moment. When I go with what is, and don’t overthink or put a name or label to it, its almost like this container inside of me opens up, a space that allows breathe to flow, a real sense of spaciousness in my own body. A story my body knows very well. Coming back to my own mat and daily rituals creates that sense to be with ‘What is’.

Moving forward…

I reflect as I rest, and ask myself what intentions I have going forward in 2026. I’ve never been one for new years resolution's as I find they can create way to much pressure on my own body, so an intention sits softly and gently. What lands authentically for me is to live more simply and to keep coming back to things that personally bring me joy.

As I pause… Resting at the End of the Year and to say ‘thank you’ for being part of my journey with me x
