'Negative' feelings are just as valid and important as 'positive ones'
This is a super important issue to give some airtime in our profession. In the pursuit of the good life, personal development and enlightenment we come across many messages about positive thinking, gratitude and affirmations.
Although these are all valuable and have their place, it is important not to demonise those feelings we have that are often labelled 'negative'.
In my talk I discuss why we need to give space for all our feelings and the positive impact that has on our business, our teaching and our students.

Is there something in your business or life you can outsource?
Просмотров 3День назад
One of the traps we can fall into being self employed is believing that we need to do everything in our business. The truth is that in order for us to grow without burning out we need to have support systems in place. In my talk I go through different areas in life and business where you could find affordable support to share the burden of all the tasks that need doing. Join our free Yoga for C...
If you want to be valued for what you offer, you must value yourself first
Просмотров 914 дней назад
It took me a long time to realise that I need to stop waiting for people to value what I offer and value myself first. It can be hard to have confidence in our teaching and the impact it has in the world but people often reflect our own beliefs and attitudes back to us. If we don't believe in ourselves then we can't expect anyone else to! In my talk I discuss what might be blocking us from trul...
You are allowed to not be perfect all the time. Yoga teachers are human too!
Просмотров 521 день назад
Do your students imagine you never get stressed, eat perfectly and are the model parent who never yells? I have had all kinds of assumptions made about me over the years! As yoga teachers we can feel the pressure of expectation to live up to some kind of ideal, but these are very rarely realistic and often are unhelpful. Not only can it put unfair pressure on us, it creates an unhealthy dynamic...
Remember that what you do makes a difference to others
Месяц назад
Do you sometimes forget to give yourself the recognition you deserve for the positive impact you make in the world? Does it feel uncomfortable to even think about that?! Yes there are the yoga philosophies around ego and attachment but this doesn't mean we are not allowed to acknowledge that our work is meaningful and can change lives. In my talk I discuss healthy ways to recognise our own valu...
How often do you find yourself saying 'should'?
Просмотров 6Месяц назад
I love the word 'should' - only is as much as it rings a loud bell for me these days! Years ago I started retraining myself to use other words instead of 'should' and in making a subtle shift in language have made a big change in how I feel and make decisions. It really is so simple but can be lifechanging in how it filters through to our whole world outlook and self-talk. Join me for my free t...
How comfortable are you in saying no to things you don’t want to do?
Просмотров 10Месяц назад
Following on from my last talk where we discussed asking for what you want, this week's free sustainable business talk is tackling the difficult boundary issue of saying no. If you're anything like me you may find it hard to say no to people or feel that you need to find a good enough reason to justify your decision. Instead, what would it be like to kindly say no with no other explanation? Joi...
How comfortable are you in asking for what you want?
Просмотров 13Месяц назад
If you are anything like me, you may find it more challenging than you'd think to ask for what you want! There can be all kinds of subconscious beliefs around having our needs and desires met that can sabotage us and our business. In this free talk I will discuss some of those potential reasons and give some tips in how to start asking for want you want guilt free, and how this can help both yo...
Holding strong boundaries is also a way of teaching your students
Просмотров 9Месяц назад
We often think about boundaries in terms of guiding us in healthy, fair and ethical behaviour. They are there to protect our students and to protect us. However there is another level of benefit: that by us holding clear and firm boundaries we are modelling how to do that for our students. In this free talk I will be discussing the challenges we may feel when facing some boundary issues and way...
Do you offer discounts? If so why, and what are your boundaries with it?
Просмотров 172 месяца назад
Discounts can be a thorny area! Whether or not you offer discounts, we need to have good boundaries around our pricing so it works for us and students know where they stand. In this free talk I will be discussing the pros and cons of offering discounts and some of the ethical dilemmas to consider in both cases. I will also talk through some suggestions of ways to offer a range of prices without...
Do you have boundaried time for business and teaching admin?
Просмотров 82 месяца назад
It is very easy when we are self employed to think of our contact time as the only time we are actually working! Of course there is much more to running small business than that. To thrive, we need to have enough time to work ON our business as well as IN our business. In this free talk I will outline some of the key tasks common to most yoga teachers and how you might go about scheduling that ...
Is there a class that is not working for you? Could you let it go?
Просмотров 92 месяца назад
It can be counter-intuitive if we want to grow our business to think about taking a class off our schedule. However, taking time to review all our classes and see what works and what doesn't can help us to focus our time and energy in the right places for us. In this free talk I will walk you through scenarios of when it may be a good time to let a class go and when there are problems you can f...
We cannot be all things to all people!
Просмотров 12 месяца назад
Sometimes in our efforts to be of service to our community we can lose sight of our overall goals and dilute our offerings by trying to serve everyone. We also need to be focused within our classes to maintain our boundaries as a yoga teacher and not try to solve all our students problems! In my free Sustainable Business talk I will be helping you stay focused on your vision and find other ways...

If in doubt, remember - good enough is good enough!

Do you have a tendency to spend so long on creating social media content, lesson plans and other materials that it eats a lot of time in your week. Or maybe you spend so long perfecting something that you end up missing a deadline or just not finishing or publishing it at all? In my free talk I will be discussing how we can challenge the belief that we, or our work are not good enough. This can...

Love this video
Lovely Jenni - This is a lovely interpretation of cat-cow like movements. As I yoga therapist, I use something similar in a gentle flow I teach on Friday afternoons. I love the tips you give for ankles and knees and the richness of focus you bring into this gentle and adaptable practice. Thank you.
Thank-you for your kind words, I'm so glad you found this useful, it's one of my regular practices for myself too. Your class sounds wonderful!
Thank you it is a lovely exploration ☀️
I'm one of those rebellious energetic crazy wild young men that takes my shirt off in Yoga class.
