In Flow with Natalie

In this light episode, I share a spontaneous conversation about the small, comforting rituals we turn to—like fresh socks, a swipe of lipstick, or even folding a drawer—to lift our spirits. It’s about the everyday things that soothe us in subtle, meaningful ways. So… what’s your thing?

If you are new to meditation and breath work, need to take a breather from your day, and want a few minutes to relax and reset, join me.  

This is a short breathing meditation that includes calming breath work, a bit of box breathing, and a reminder that you can take even just a few brief moments at any time during the day, to find some tranquility, ease tension, and relax. I hope you enjoy it.

"My wish for you is to live in positivity, health & harmony" 

In this episode, I share what I’m discovering in the first days of yoga teacher training - 11 hour days filled with movement, meditation, learning the ancient teachings, and deep self-inquiry. 

I reflect on how trying something new can unlock powerful, unexpected growth. This isn't just about yoga poses or anatomy—it's about the beauty and challenge of self-discovery, connection, and finding your place, even when fear and self-doubt arise.  It's about what happens beneath and beyond the physical practice. It's about what unfolds when we allow ourselves to be seen, when we challenge long-held stories, and when we meet ourselves with honesty, sometimes for the first time in years.

I talk about the unexpected emotions that surfaced, the assumptions we carry into new spaces, and what it means to show up with vulnerability. And it’s also about discovering that we are all far more alike than we realize—once we begin to set aside the masks shaped by a world that taught us to protect, to perform, or to hide. When those filters fall away, we begin to find ourselves in each other.

In this episode, I go back in time to my childhood in the 70s and 80s where I reflect on how our big yellow rotary dial phone, attached to the wall in our home, somehow became the fabric that connected our family, built a sense of responsibility and respect for one another, and gave us a little bit more independence (teaching us to learn some life lessons on our own), and I suppose teaching our parents to let go of a little bit of control and have some trust.

 I look back at having those "spaces in between" as a child with a sense of nostalgia - the space away from home, where you were expected to follow the rules, and no one could contact you until you reached another phone, or returned home.

 I also share thoughts on how the mobile phone may have impacted some of the ways the family fabric has developed since those times.

This is not meant to be an analysis or a strong opinion piece, but rather, just sharing some stories on observations from my own life. Sometimes just sharing a story and a few reflections can get us thinking about how things impact us in our own lives. it may also bring back some memories.

I hope you enjoy it

Many of us have heard about the benefits of practising gratitude. But for some of us, maybe you feel you can't find any reason to feel gratitude. Something might be holding you back.

 In this episode, I share my thoughts on why a practice of gratitude can be a healthy way to change your mindset. But for those who struggle with finding anything to feel thankful for, I offer another option. Before you can begin any practice of gratitude, if something is holding you back, you need to learn to become familiar with how you actually feel. We’ve been taught for so long that feeling negative emotions is not a good thing, that we learn to suppress them. And if we’ve been taught that feeling a certain way is bad, then we often don’t even know how to face our true feelings. 

 I share my views on why there is no right or wrong and how you feel because it’s how you feel. There’s two sides to every feeling and each of us at one point or another in our lives will experience both. Learning to understand how you really feel, to face it, and find acceptance in it is the first step in finding acceptance in yourself. When you practice becoming aware of how you feel, all of the words and thoughts in your head that create that story to justify your feelings begins to get weaker, which is a good thing. I share my views on why it’s more authentic to be in tune with how you feel than how you think.

So if you’re struggling because you know you’re suppressing something or you can’t find your happiness, and you certainly can’t find a way to begin practising gratitude, tune in  - to see if it’s something you might be willing to try. I have full confidence that if you open yourself up to this practice, you will begin to feel much better and you will be able to find your gratitude.

In this episode, I share why it’s important to be true to yourself, without comparison to others, without fear of not being good enough. When you arrive each day in your life, as who you authentically are, you’re experiencing exactly what life is meant to be… for you.  This is your life, and when you show up as YOU in each moment, you are able to experience the moments as they unfold for you. 

Living by comparison to what you think you should be, who you think you should be, what you should achieve, puts you in a place of not ever experiencing for yourself, not appreciating your moments, meant for you.  Comparison takes you away from appreciating what is happening for you, and you may find yourself never feeling satisfied with the outcome.

I share a couple of stories here about how this makes sense to me - in art, in yoga, in life.  Join me.

This meditation is to help anyone who is struggling with something, or maybe holding onto thoughts that they cannot seem to let go of.  We all know that hanging onto thoughts or worries does not serve us. And even if you can’t release those thoughts today or tomorrow, please know that you have the strength within you to find your way. 

But for now, consider taking this few moments to tune into this short meditation - less than 10 minutes - to give yourself permission to let it go.  Let Go of your thoughts and worries even for a few minutes, take a breath, relax.  Even if just for this brief time, it could do you a world of good.  

We all have times when worries or thoughts get in our way, and reminding yourself to LET IT GO, can sometimes help keep us on track.

P.S - I kept this one short for those who may find they get in their head about something, and don't have the time or interest in learning to meditate or take space for themselves.  Taking this time may help you to discover that you can take a few moments from your day to make space for yourself; to take a breath and break from it all.

In this episode I share my thoughts about why it’s important to do that thing you always wanted to do but never felt you had time, or maybe the confidence, to take the plunge.  Stepping out of your comfort zone can open up a new world of possibilities and experiences.  It’s important to fill your personal cup- as we often spend more of our time filling the cups for others.    

I also share my experience with a new painting class.  

How do you fill your personal cup?

This meditation is intended to give you a few moments to focus on yourself, to feel your essence and to discover that you have the wisdom within yourself to find your peace and happiness.  

If you are someone who feels that you often prioritize the needs of those around you, people you love and take care of, over your own needs; if you  often feel unseen by your loved ones, or that your voice is not heard; or perhaps you live with worries for the health of someone you care about, while they continue to disregard your urging them to change their habits and behaviours,  then perhaps its time to take a few moments now for you. 

 You know you cannot change others - people cannot change unless they want and choose to change themselves.  But you can learn to re-discover yourself; to choose you; and perhaps practice and learn to free yourself of the worries you carry for those around you.  
It is my hope that this meditation will help you find a few moments to remind yourself that this beautiful life is yours... you can choose to find your peace, contentment and joy.
