I Feel For You

darling, lol we have to laugh…

Or sometimes cry...

But also

Remember.

So that's what this minisode is.

Turning it around.

Cause today is not over yet.

This one’s for anyone else crawling through the week. A pep talk for difficult days or moments when you need to remember who the hell you are.

Hope it lands.

Love dionne x

In today’s podcast, we’re exploring how to take a holiday when you can’t take a holiday, with lots of low to no cost ideas to rejuvenate your cells, wherever you are.

I’m sharing something i wrote in 2018 which feels….apt at this time we’re in, global pandemic and being at home… maybe you like me have been in a small flat with no garden for the last 18 months or elsewhere. And so if you, like me, are yearning for a different perspective, i hope there’s something here for you to lift your spirits. Many of us social distancing still, or exploring re-emergence and sidenote: if that’s something that’s on your mind and you missed the last episode (75) we’re chewing on that so feel welcome to dig in.

But for now let’s dive into the episode! I really hope you enjoy it.

Cue cheesy sound effect!

As we traverse these wild times, we’re talking about re-emergence, negotiating boundaries and body wisdom - aren’t we always?

How do we stay centered as we negotiate boundaries when the news is constantly changing? 

What staves off the spiral?

How do we feel safe and free?

I have some ideas! 

So in today's podcast we are regulating our nervous system babyyyy with an embodiment chew! ”Whats that you might ask?” possibly with a screw-faceIt’s a mini exploration and practice we can do together, with some storytime seasoning of course!”Why a chew?!” I don’t know, i guess it’s cause i don’t like telling people what to do, rather, invite them to explore something in their own way, adding their own seasoning. Whatever happens on this journey, i hope it will meet you where you’re at, and invite some spacemaking.And you know, i always love to hear from you, so reach out to me!

Love,

Dionne x

and it wouldn’t be right if i didn’t share a visionboard of my personal pleasure: Find Prince exploring embodiment (in my mind) outdoors in the shownotes via

A reminder we get to tap into practice anywhere, anyway. enjoy! 💜

i spent so long wondering what i could possibly to say to you, as i’ve been putting off sharing this podcast with you for so long.

The reason? Well, some life stuff but really, truly, i think i was scared of sharing it. i’ve been scared of making any public moves lately. a lot behind curtains, camera off, hidden places. in that process of processing, needing time to figure out what i wanted to say, then getting so tied up in worrying i’m waiting to say the thing, and suddenly weeks go by.

If you’re in my Patreon gang, you probably have a gist of what’s been going on, ‘cause i’ve been sharing there, but nowhere else, but

i’ll level with you. i recorded this podcast in one take as a stream of consciousness conversation with you in my head. does that sound weird? i was going to post it as it was then deferred - default mode took over help- wanted an intro. wanted it to be neater. perfect. which is impossible right?

i wanted to hide but knew and know i have to be seen. we all do. that doesn’t of course mean we have to scream or shout for attention. rather, that we will be seen, whether we realise it or not. whether we are shy or not. whether we hold back or not. is this making any sense?

i wanted to explain. over-explain. i’m kind of doing that, but hopefully with purpose, to demonstrate the process!

dear listener. if this resonates with you right now, i hope it comes with all the love and encouragement you can imagine. i want for us all to be free, in all ways, always. trust what you know and feel to be true.

In today’s episode we’re revisiting the archives - self care and wellness for spring.

It’s a deep dive my friends with what i hope is a feast for you to explore.

We cover topics including:

→ the seasons and their impact on us

→ Ayurveda and how it can support us to find balance

→ we explore how we can sync up with the seasons - especially useful during transitions and when times feel weird - hello!

→ i share some things to consider and think about when exploring taking care of yourself in the springtime - lots of practical tips whether or not it’s spring where you are

→ we talk about fluids and mountains (not a euphemism!)

→ what a wu tang clan song has to do with immunity

→ we talk a bit about body stuff. the weird but real pressures.

→ we get into immediate ways to support yourself and shift your state - things you can do right now!

→ we talk about the paradox of balance and how to reframe it for real life

→ we also have some real talk about meditation and the challenges of it. So for those of you who don’t have a meditation practice, or those who might be pulling a face at me right now like, meh, whah? I really hope that bit is helpful.

→ I’ve got a treat for you as well: there’s also presents from me peppered like little bits of seasoning throughout this episode, free presents, which i hope will aid as an extra booster when exploring this stuff

i want us all to be as well as we can be… you know? and right now, over a year into lockdown for me at least...i started social distancing on 12 march 2020 and i’m recording this on 18 march 2021…

hello fam. hello friends. miss you very much.

So yeah. i hope this offering is useful.

And after listening through to it as i was writing a transcript for it, i realised it’s still applies and can be relevant despite lockdown, so think of this as a big distanced hug from me.

and let me know how you go eh? i always love to hear from you.

Love,

Dionne x

Today’s episode is based on a piece i wrote 16th February 2021 and was reflecting on my 40th year, pondering why i get energised around my birthday, and wondering whether fear was motivating me. So we talk about ageing. And societal pressures as we grow older, and i share some insights gained from trauma-i mean “learning moments and experiences” i’ve had on the journey. Lol.

I hope you’ll find it an uplifting and hopeful episode.

With love and thanks for listening.

From this 41 year old by the time you hear this!

Thanks for supporting the show!

Love,

Dionne x

Hi my loves, i hope this finds you as well as can be. Today i’m sharing ideas about surviving these times with joy, rest, ease and tenderness.

First off, thank you so much for listening to and supporting this podcast, special shoutout to my Patreon Fam who help make this possible.

And if anything resonates with you in this episode, please feel welcome to pass it on and perhaps even share it with a friend, maybe take a moment to like and review the show. It means so much and i’d really appreciate it!

Today’s episode is based on is a piece i wrote for VOKS magazine in Norway around September 2020 and…. you know, it was quwhite a year! I felt i wanted to offer some more words on rest, something i’ve been exploring on my own journey and as many of you know who listen to this show, rest has been a major part of my work and offerings since 2010, but to be honest, longer than that. And for a taste, you can head back to the 90s and early 00s with me in a previous podcast i’ll link for you in the shownotes.

I am certain this journey has been a lifelong learning moment, for me at least, and i expect it will continue to evolve, and i really hope that some of the ideas that i’m sharing today might be useful in supporting someone out there to feel more at ease with their own relationship with rest, as well as offer some tips in how we can access this necessary tonic, particularly during these times.

I believe rest is a powerful liberation practice, not just for ourselves, but for our communities. So i hope this envelopes you in soft duvets of tenderness. Lets you soak in your own rest fantasies and encourages you to make them accessible and real.

I really hope you enjoy this episode.

Love,

Dionne x

Recorded on the beach, 1st December 2020.

2020 has forced us to reexamine our relationship with a lot of things

so expect swirls on topics including

work

worth + value

productivity

rest

feeling enough

guilt

consumerism

freedom

inequality

social media

how we're in relationship with people + things

etc.

+ questions like:

how are we in relationship with work?

how are we in relationship with ourselves?

how do we feel enough?

what do we value? what do we need?

what are the non negotiables?

how are we consuming?

what is it we’re actually doing? - i’m more interested in that question as opposed to actually labelling something so that i can sell something and package it up (more here https://dionne.space/about )

hbu?

and the crux:

how can we live our lives with less tension?

share your thoughts on any or all of the above via a swirl below! xx

ps there’s a bit of wind early on but it eases off!

More on my life in Monaco in podcast episode 23! 🍹

It’s hard and it’s real and we can’t ignore the hard sh✨t. But staying with ourselves and acknowledging (if possible what’s there. What hurts? What can we do about it?

An offering:

Stay with yourself.

Find ways of being with yourself in a tender, loving way.

Don’t feel you have to do something about things immediately and take on every single thing causing anguish and despair or anxiety.

Ask, "what small adjustment can i make to offer myself some space and support?"

Let's show up for ourselves and each other. 💜

Episode produced by me + Ketil Kinden Endresen (www.ketxl.com) who also made the music!

“ (…) when you're working on repatterning something or unlearning or learning something new or learning a new way of being in relationship with yourself, which is everything to do with sleep and rest, right? It's about allowing, it's about enabling yourself or giving yourself permission to step into this new place, this new relationship, this new way of being, - if you're approaching that with a tension, with a kind of hostility, it's not going to feel so good. There's just going to be pure resistance, pure bumps along the road. If you're at least starting from a place where you're just being tender and kind and as sweet as possible with yourself, i truly believe that it offers more space, more receptivity if you like. Because when we're open, we're more able to receive right? When we're contracted and closed off and maybe defensive, it's not so easeful.

So, there's your challenge”

Rest is the topic of this episode, which of course is vast, many of you who have been coming to my public yoga + movement + meditation events and talks over the last 10 years (10 years baybee!) will know that there's always ground to cover, but today, i thought it might be helpful for us to review our relationship with rest. Particularly at this moment in time.

Expect a creative activity later in the show (of course) but as with everything, it’s optional, but if you’re into it, have a pen and paper handy or whatever you like to use to take notes. ...Should i wheel out that old dictaphone episode now? lol.

Hope you dig!

I’d like to thank my Patreon supporters for enabling me to make this episode.
