I wanted to share with you all a little about my journey into this work. It's developed over time of course but my own battle with burnout at the end of '24 led me to starting all over again with my approach to whole-being wellness. I only had the capacity for either lying down in bed or on a rug (sometimes 3 times a day to do guided meditation and nervous system regulation movement & then followed by a cat nap). I began to recognise that these 'lovebites' that I was creating for myself throughout the day and the repetition of these practices were seriously what was bringing me back to life. And ultimately rewiring how I viewed rest & healing. My body started to crave these practices, our nervous system loves repetition! So they became a regular part of my everyday coping mechanism. SO I have created the Baseline Practices for you too, to bookend your day. To rise calmly & in a powerfully regulated state to then close the day is a peaceful acceptance as well as gratitude for the day. Making a commitment to yourself for 10min (x 2) to feel the difference is where it's at. Everyone has this time! How do I do this? You ask. I suggest to put two alerts in your phone calendar, one just before you rise and one just as you head to sleep. This way you are treating it as an important meeting with yourself - which it is! Observing how these small shifts can alter your day is like magic. See if you can do this for 7days, then a month and then into your everyday. It becomes as easy as making your morning cup of tea or anything else you do on the regular. Find The Daily Baseline Practice below to get started. I will check in soon to see how you are getting on. I just know you are going to love it as much as I do (yes, I do my own Baseline Practices daily!) With love Kelly

Somatic Movement Under the Tawa Trees | The ME Project Half Day Retreat on Te Aratipi Station A raw & real video of my very simple session from today’s retreat. Since you couldn’t be with me, I decided to film it so I could share it with you. This was a gentle introduction to somatic movement & dance in the bush - we channeled tree nymph & fairy vibes! We began very simply with dropping in & slowing down, softening and learning to listen to the body before asking it to expand out of its comfort zone ever so. This is where the work starts & begins to resonate with those it needs to. I loved dancing in person with this great group of women and under the trees on the land.
