Feel good supper


On Tuesday The Sorority ladies gathered together for the charity Keep a Child Alive hosted by Sorority founder Lisa Tse and supported by the lovely Alicia Keys (and not to forget little baby Oscar, Lisa’s gorgeous new baby). The evening was hosted by Mews of Mayfair and the food delicious.

The Sorority will be launching a collaboration with Alicia and her charity to help to empower women in developing countries.

The wonderful evening inspired and uplifted me. And knowing that we have the opportunity to support women in developing countries to become independent is truly exciting. During the evening ideas were shared, a vision begun and a feeling that many positive things would come was felt. Watch this space…

A summer of yoga....


The workshop - Yoga + live music with Shiva Rea

Shiva Rea, the original Californian goddess comes to London with the talented Kirtan musician Dave Stringer. Shiva will lead two workshops 'Fire + Flow' which will explore ways in which we can learn to channel our energy using yoga methods to help us achieve what we are seeking and 'Drops of nectar' a class which will help you renew and rejuvenate using the method of prana flow yoga. Both workshops will be lead by Shiva to live music by Dave Stringer. This is yoga at its best and is not to be missed.

Tickets - £100

The retreat - Yogaabode's Yoga + Pilates escape


I'm treating my post baby tummy to Yogaabode's restoratative Yoga + Pilates retreat in pretty Suffolk. I will get to stretch my limbs and strengthen my core abdominal muscles by taking two daily yoga classes and one pilates class. Retreat is set in a converted barn nestled in the quiet countryside. Food will be vegetarian, seasonal where possible and very tasty. Hoping for tighter stomach, longer limbs and to come away feeling more energised after having many sleepless nights with new baby.

Dates - 10th - 12th June

The kit - Lounge lover yoga babe set

Fed up with the usual dull yoga kit? Be more inspired and invest in some yoga pieces that make you feel good. I love this chic tank and leggings set by lounge lover. Both top and bottom are flattering and feel great to wear. The price is hefty(£145) but worth it as the fabric is durable (stretch-modal)so will last many a wash and you even get a cute bag to pop it in post class.
