I think there is something really extraordinary about that moment you look at a dear friend, or a beloved lover or partner and you realize that out of all the places you could be in world, and with all the people you could be with …that you’ve both chosen to be here in that moment, and no where else.
It’s even more extraordinary when both people, truly choose to be there, to fully inhabit the experience of being there together.
For every day we make new choices that bring us further or closer together, and when two people stand in front of each other knowing the rare possiblity of fully choosing to show up in the moment….magic is possible.
So whoever is giving you their presence today, breathe it in …..and show up. What you may be running away from or paying little attention or gratitue for, may not be there tomorrow.
A moment of presence in love….is eternal. You can spend the rest of your life running towards what is better, more abundant, or more aligned with what you desire….yet presence is presence and in a world of distraction, it is rare. Be rare, it’s needed.

Sacred Mirrors
THE WORK
SECOND EDITION
December 27th • 1–7PM • Dalston, London
The world moves fast, often in many directions at once. In this speed, nervous systems carry more than they can process, oscillating between anxiety and numbness, contraction and dissociation. Yet there is another way of inhabiting the body—a way that invites stillness, spaciousness, and presence in the deeper ground beneath constant motion.
This day-long retreat offers a chance to step out of the pace of the city, to set down productivity, performance, and optimisation, and simply arrive. The container will be gender balanced. You do not need to identify as male or female. All identities and orientations are welcome. This balance honours those born into male and female bodies equally, supporting a field where diverse experiences, perspectives, and embodied wisdom can be shared.
The day will unfold through a variety of experiences and connective practices, each designed to bring presence, awareness, and energetic aliveness into the body and the field. Some will be ceremonial, others practical. Practices will include embodiment and somatic attunement, contemplative and meditative presencing, Circling and Authentic Relating, Giving and Receiving, conscious touch, energetic exchange, eye-gazing, breath-based connection, subtle movement, and voice work.
There will be opportunities to explore stillness and sensation, to tune into the aliveness of the nervous system, and to meet both self and other with clarity, honesty, and compassion. Each practice is offered as a doorway into deeper awareness, the natural flow of life force, and the subtle currents of presence that move between us.
The intention is to cultivate connection while remaining rooted in your own centre, to meet your boundaries, needs, and desires with presence and sensitivity. We will explore defensive patterns, protective strategies, and the ways contraction limits the flow of life force through body, voice, and field.
This is a space of group attunement, energetic clarity, and simultaneous emptiness and fullness. Sensual and erotic energy may arise naturally, yet the space is not explicitly sexual. It is offered as an invitation to authentic presence, moment by moment, and to the subtle movement of mystery that underlies all experience.
Questions or particular needs are welcome, please do reach out. There will only be 14 women's tickets and 14 men's tickets. It would be wise to grab a spot while they are still available.

We are living in tremendous paradox these days — miraculous and messy, deeply inward and powerfully outward. Our attention is pulled in many directions, yet so many are feeling the inner anchor calling them back home to the seat of their true Self.
As we enter 2026, we step into our sixth year of
Full Circle: The Art of Living
Yoga, Meditation & Facilitators Training
With my incredible co-teachers @mariamacsay & @evangelos_aik we hold a space where the inner journey is supported by outward tribe, where we are witnessed, challenged, and invited into deeper integrity.
Full Circle, in a way, serves as a life-school for many. A remembering. A place to shed what has kept us small and a courageous path into acceptance of uncertainty. This is threshold work: connected deeply to the teachings of the Void. Working with embodied, and deeply transformative contemplation and expression. It asks for your whole heart, and gives back in ways that reshape the way you meet yourself in and of the world.
We meet online in March, May, August and September, allowing spacious months between modules for digestion, integration and renewal.
For those seeking a path through a mystical and nondual lens — weaving science with spirit, form with the formless, the seen with the unseen — this may be your next step.
THE FOUR MODULES
1. Foundations of Form
• Somatic and asana-based study
• Meditation and breath practices
• Yogic history through a mystical lens
• The doorway where form meets the great mystery
2. The Body, the Heart & the Energetic Self
• Deep embodiment and emotional intelligence
• Energetic anatomy and subtle systems
• Exploring death, temporality and the human condition
• The heart as a portal into the void
3. Listening as Practice
• Yin, slowing down and receptive presence
• Tuning to inner and outer subtlety
• Cultivating stillness and nondual awareness
4. Walking the Path in the World
• Bringing practice into daily life
• Living with sustainability, ethics and integrity
• Embodiment as a way of being

Love & Suffering
Online
Nov 28th 4-5:30 PM
London TZ
Love and suffering are inseparable. The open heart is willing to experience it all, the agony, the anguish and the ecstasy. Every intimacy, every heartbreak, every longing holds the potential to initiate us into a deeper understanding of ourselves and our capacity to connect. Every breaking, every shattering is an opportunity to own more parts of ourselves and to open more deeply.
This online ceremony is a space to explore love not as comfort, but as initiation. To feel fully the pain, desire, and vulnerability that relationships bring, and to allow these experiences to awaken presence, clarity, and wholehearted connection. This space is a space of exploring our defense mechanisms, and the ways in which we hold ourselves back from loving and being loved.
We will descend into the shadow of our relational patterns, meet the wounds we carry, and uncover how suffering can become a gateway, a rite of passage into honesty, intimacy, and integration.
Expect reflection, shadow work, dyadic practices, and sacred witnessing. Bring a candle, a journal, and anything that anchors you in your own depth.
For those ready to meet love and suffering as teachers, and themselves as initiates on the path of intimacy.

For my Londoner’s
The Sacred Mirrors Ceremony
Descending Through the Lover’s Wound
📍 Dalston, London
🕒 Nov 29th, 2–5 PM
Before transcending gender, conditioning, biases, preferences, burdens, and the myths we’ve inherited about one another… we must first see what has not yet been seen or spoken.
We must look deeply into the mirror — to witness where we have caused harm, created divide, and been misled by our parents’ conditioning, our society, our culture, our gender, and our moral judgments.
It is not enough to use spiritual or non-dualistic language to bypass our deeper truths. We must descend into the soil of our being, unearth what is rotten, outdated, and what was planted to divide us in the first place.
To clear the weeds, we must first get our hands dirty.
This ceremony invites you to go as deep as your vulnerability allows. The space will hold equal numbers of men and women, with full inclusivity for all orientations and identities. Here, we will speak clearly and courageously about the gender wounds that have created division, self-harm, shame, guilt, and isolation.
Together, we will enter a space of tenderness, sacred council, and shared humanity — a journey from personal pain into transpersonal grief, integration, alchemy, and wholehearted living.
If you have been wounded by love or intimacy, if you feel pain or bias in connection to certain genders or experiences, this is an invitation to be brave — to see where you have limited your openness, and to reclaim your capacity to love more fully.
Please arrive 15 minutes early so we can begin on time.
Bring sacred totems for our collective altar, food to share, and something cozy to support your journey.
Expect practices of reflection, contemplation, shadow work, and transgressive process.

Anyone else feel a bit like the Mad Joker these days? The world we live in, the fu£&ing audacity of certain human behaviors. I feel rage. I feel anger, but I won’t choose hate, and I won’t take sides. ll I’ll laugh instead, in madness, at the ridiculous amount of sh£& we don’t stand up for or speak out loud.
It’s time to say the things you’ve been silent about for too long. Now is not the time to numb out, to disociate, to distract, to run away from truths you feel to afraid to face.
Stand up, look around, take inventory, we’ve become the walking dead. Step back into your body, lengthen your spine, open your voice and fu&@ing scream. It’s time to wake up.
You don’t have to fix the whole world, no one can, but you can pick ONE thing that matters to you, that would make life better for you as well as everyone else, and master that ONE thing. Step by step.
The path we are walking isn’t easy, and I have no idea where it is that we are going, but I do know we’re all going to have to be much more present, much more aware, and much more courageous than we are now.
Let’s get to work, the garden needs to be dug and the weeds need to be plucked.
