Birmingham is a city I felt I hadn’t really got to know. I absolutely loved the botanical gardens, becoming one of my favourite green spaces, but the actual city I had become to see as ‘the busy bit of the M6 that makes the regular drives to Bristol a nightmare’. I used to visit the … Continue reading Discovering a Birmingham beyond the Bullring
I feel this week has been a real pivotal one, lots of challenges overcome and lessons learnt! I started a new job, which had been a real goal of mine after being off work due to my anxiety for a while now.

I thought this was a great idea for a weekly post, since I always have my camera on me and snap things as I go … Continue reading Weekly Scrapbook #1

This is how I began my yoga journey, teaching myself the basic poses, and finding pockets of time in the morning/evening to practice in the comfort of my own little space. I am now attending classes at the … Continue reading Creating a Home Yoga Sanctuary
