Your Yoga with Niamh

Last weekend we had more blue mind experience testing and I got to bring my friends along 🫶🫶thank you to Wellness Afloat

Everyone was fitted with a heart rate monitor before we started and then they went through the full experience while we watched their heart rates.

We weren’t just looking for their feedback as “did you enjoy it?”

We wanted to know did the order of the sauna, mineral plunge, food, drinks, movement, breathing and deep rest work? did each section feel long enough? did the transitions feel natural? did people actually switch off? And what would we change?

Safe to say we got a lot of feedback :)))

More trials and tweaking next weekend before the official launch 🙏❤️❤️

A new experience is coming to Sydney Harbour

A nervous system reset on the water.

Designed to help you step away from the noise and return feeling different.

the blue mind experience
coming soon.

SO EXCITED to be creating a wellness experience with Wellness Afloat. It brings together mindful movement, nervous system regulation and grounding all inspired by the science of blue mind and the calming effect of being on the water.

Wellness afloat is about being kind to your body, your mind and the planet.

I can’t wait to show you all as it all comes to life 🫶

The way you speak to yourself matters.

I grew up thinking the normal thing to do was take the p**s out of yourself. If someone gave you a compliment you had to brush it off. If you were good at something, you definitely didn’t say it out loud. I feel like this is something we grew up around when we were younger.

It was always “I’m useless” or “I’m sh*te at that”

Saying it as a joke so often that eventually you start believing it. I did it for a long time

I told myself I wasn’t good at things before I even properly tried. I spoke to myself in a way I would never dream of speaking to someone I loved !

Yoga made me notice that

This all comes from a yoga principle called Ahimsa. In very simple terms: don’t be your own bully. It means being kind to yourself with your thoughts, your words and the way you treat yourself every day!!

Now whenever I catch myself saying “I’m just not good at that” I stop and ask if that actually true or have I just repeated it so many times that I’ve accepted it as a fact? Because the way you speak to yourself becomes the way you see yourself.

The way you speak to yourself matters.
The way you speak about yourself matters.
It shapes who you are, how you move in the world, the decisions you make.

So here’s your reminder today: Stop taking the p**s out of yourself. Your mind is listening 🫶🙏
