Monday 10th September
Ooooffff We have returned from our holidays (just great to have a few days by the beach/sea), the girls have finally after over 2 months of no school gone back to school, Melodie has turned 9 and the birthday festivities have finally finished (completed in a big party/sleepover/treasure hunt etc....) and Mummy can at last get onto tackle the vast list that has been accumulating for weeks.
We are still blessed with great weather donehere in the Ardeche and thankfully for both us and the guests the Summer seems to have carried on. Just amazing to cycle around the Ardeche roads through the heavily laden chestnut trees today with the warm south wind blowing and the scenery just breath taking. I am truly blessed....
Yoga in the garden on my return
And school pick up - " had a great day Mummy" thank you
Dinner all went even the broccoli and now both girls are tucked up in bed and I will not be long behind them.
I am single parenting this week with Papa away in savoie working on balconies and so some major juggling acts are happening but all is so far well on the Ardechois front.... to be continued as the week progresses!

Life has moved into a pace I can only call frantic and the days are getting longer and nights shorter – ie I am eating into the night time hours to catch up on things I just have not been able to cram into the spaces of time I have. Life has changed rather radically as I moved out familiar surroundings and into a new home, as I started to share my children’s time with my husband and we both got used to being apart after 14 years together, as the Winter season has kicked in a pace with new students, rooms, time schedules and as all sorts of new projects get under way…… But despite all the change, late nights, tiring days there a few amazing and beautiful things that are surfacing and that make me realise a) I have made totally the right decision to act on the deepest truths within me and b) that I am extremely lucky to have the life I have. My relationship with my ex is

This is the story of a Girl

THIS IS THE STORY OF AN ORDINARY GIRL MY BODY, MY BATTLE HAVE YOU HAVE HAD THE FEELING THAT YOU WERE NOT IN THE RIGHT BODY? TO NOT BE STANDING IN YOUR FULL NATURAL ESSENCE? Have you ever had the feeling or have the feeling that you are burying, hiding who you are? Let me explain ….. As a young girl I was always   a bit “too big” in all senses of the word – too tall, too large, too much. I always felt a bit different, I spoke loudly, I was always loud, always “too much”. I never felt like I looked like or acted like the other “little girls”.   I went o my ballet class just like the other girls and just like them dreamt of being a ballet dancer on the big stage, graceful and full of light elegance. In my head I was that beautiful ballet dancer, the reality was very different. Ballet dancer in the skin of a “big fat cow”! As a young girl I read a book called “Clumsy Clara”…. An extremely clumsy young girl. One day she finds fairies in her garden

For thse who know me you will know that my body has been quite an issue over the years and if anyone had told me I would be photographed in HD in a magazine doing yoga poses I would have said you are mad! But in the March edition of Esprit Yoga you can see me doing the advanced sequence of poses and preparation for mermaid pose. I hope you like them - go and buy the magazine if you are in France...... Life continues to be manic as I progress with the festival, web site, the school holidays (thank god for Mélodie and her independance and the amazing Village des Enfants in Val) ..... can I get any busier? No; But is it all well and lenty of fun projects afoot too Who said being a yogini was about meditating and chilling out all the time? I have never been busier or happier!
