LIFE CHANGING - I am completely blown away by Michelle's post below that I had to share it because THIS IS WHAT CHALLENGING YOUR MOVEMENT DOES! #Repost @michelle_girlentrepreneur (@get_repost) ・・・ It's not often you capture the moment your life changes on video. That's what happened when @abigail_adamsmma at Oolong Yoga interviewed me about my progress at her Mixed Movement Class. I told Abi that her awesome class made me feel physically and emotionally stronger. Like I can probably handle anything. The two months that followed really put that to the test. Horrific and horrible two months. But out the other side, it turns out I was right. I can handle anything! And I am strong. So, Girl Entrepreneur is moving in a new direction. With a brand new online course supporting teenage girls in developing countries. Encouraging them to be strong for their communities. To be kick ass entrepreneurs, make profit AND give back. Abi showed me how to be strong, now it's time to pay that shit forward.

Those that judge...... What’s worse, the people who are close to you, family and friends, judging you, or the internal voice of your own self doubt and missed opportunities? Hhhhhhmmmmmmmm………. Juicey one, right?! I have experienced all of the above. I have been judged (of course you have I hear you cry! Your life is on social media?!), I have judged (which was a reflection of my current situation and a sense of lacking), but most damaging for me is the self judgement that I have sat with on a daily basis. It was never enough, never good enough, never right, what was I doing wrong?……. If someone had spoken to me the way I was speaking to myself I probably would have been in a right sorry state and on antidepressants! Can you imagine that constant abuse every single day? And yet we do it to ourselves unconcsiously as if its the norm. Why? Because of the brains function towards the Negativity Bias (great article and easy to understand blog on this http://sequencewiz.org/2017/04/12/negativity-bias/). An evolutionary quality of our brain, the Negativity Bias gets us to err on the side of caution with everything which has lead to our brains turning on ourselves. Way to go brain! I honestly wonder how we’ve survived this long?….. Living in a tight knit community at @budokonuniversity ; sleeping together, training together, eating together, sharing our most intimate thoughts and pushing ourselves beyond what we thought possible, you begin to see how your judgement creates your own cage of limiting experience. How emotions, of the very small, can create such drama, and how that drama can seriously effect the people around you. The people you care about. When you look at it like that, it looks like a right shitty experience doesn’t it? Why would you want to limit yourself and hurt those around you? Is there a solution?

DYNAMIC VINYASA/MOVEMENT CLASS, THURSDAYS @ 10AM Playing around with movement, energy, sensations, rhythm, And what I believe to be true this morning (perfection in movement. Does it exist?). The sun's shining, why don't you come on over and play? #yoga #yogaclass #yogainessex #vinyasa #movement #mma #budokonyoga #freestyle #sensations #abiadamsmixedmovementartist #yogawithabiadams #oolongyoga #woodford #essex

BELIEF - hhhhhmmmm, we've all got a few of those right?! So what's "wrong" with my floating frog, kindly filmed by my fellow Budokon brother? Strength, alignment, flexibility? What do your eyes see that's holding me back? There is absolutely nothing wrong with this situation other than believing I can and trusting myself to lean forward more. Because my belief is currently telling me I can't, that if I jump too far I'll break my face, that I just can't do it...... Ooohhhh change the bloody mental record, right? Our mind science sessions with @cameronshayne has SERIOUSLY bubbled to the surface my bullshit beliefs and how I contain myself within my own limitations. I can continue to worry about that jump, or just fucking own it. I choose you latter. What about you? @budokonuniversity #budokon #budokonfamily #budokontraining #yoga #movement #body #belief #expression #mentalpushups #breakthrough #justfuckingjump #miami🌴 #choice #yogawithabiadams #oolongyoga

Thank you to the wonderful group that made Moving the E-Motions workshop so beautiful. An afternoon of feeling the body by pushing through charges that felt light lightning bolts, learning to reflect to create understanding and connecting and sharing to lighten the load. And the workshop was made even more gorgeous by @chefn1ck organic lunch. Our next workshop will be held on Sunday 13th November, focusing on creating balance through the heart #yoga #meditation #reflection #contemplation #energy #bioenergetic#movement #freedom #chakras #grounding #findingself #connecting #community #health #wellbeing #holistic #360me #yogawithabiadams #oolongyoga #organic #food #workshop
