Karen opens with a steady, spacious start on the mat, easing into breathwork, gentle waves through the body, and a clear focus on releasing tension as you go. From there, the class builds into resistance-band work for the hips, core, and glutes, then moves to a chair and standing sequence with bicep curls, tricep work, Warrior 1, Warrior 2, triangle, and supported leg lifts. It finishes with hip-flexor opening, reclined bound angle, and a long, restful landing.

Journal

Here you'll find writing on mindfulness, neuroscience, mental health, physical wellbeing, and yoga.

These topics often overlap: attention, behaviour and embodiment are all part of the same ecosystem of experience, and the aim here is to explore those connections in a thoughtful and practical way. Some posts draw from research, others from lived experience and teaching. The intention is to share ideas that are useful, considered, and occasionally a bit different from what is typically said.
