Ripping Apart My Insides

November 16, 2018

I am constantly putting myself back together, but I have to if I am going to pick apart the pieces of myself. A little tweaking...

Ground yourself
In the courage
To surrender 💜

Some fun new stuff in Acro the last few months! ✨

Learning big new skills, trying stuff that terrifies me, working with dream teams, and soaring high 😍👌🏻

Love finishing the year with some wins, and as always, spending time with my inspiring community @acrojam_melbourne 💜

Some moments from November 🌱🌅♥️ It reall

Some moments from November 🌱🌅♥️ It really is about the simple pleasures, and committing to looking after yourself in the best ways possible. It definitely helps to have good company and support during the ebbs and flows!

Nourishment can come in so many different forms. And I'm forever learning and adjusting and surrendering to a life that honours that.

🌟 What's a new habit that nourishes you and you can't imagine doing life without?

For me it's weight lifting, so I can keep my body and mind strong. And while this highlight reel makes it seem like I have my life together. There have also been big challenges and obstacles to overcome. The mental mayhem is real. But the desire for peace and health are big drivers for me right now 💪🏻❤️‍🔥

It's never too late to be the change you want to see ✨

A little educational video about incorporating sou

A little educational video about incorporating sound and breath into your class, as I had fun doing this morning. I could also talk your ear off all day about Yin and TCM theory if you'd let me 😋 Definitely feeling inspired by @amycarmodymovement 's YTT studying I'm doing at the moment, and the pranayama knowledge from @kate.henry.yoga ✨ Not to mention as we move into the fiery season of Summer, the energy is building and we have more capacity for joy and passion! ❤️‍🔥 But also remember to make time for yourself, to nourish and recharge social/energetic batteries during December. Always space in the studio to let me assist this coming back to self 🙏

*P.s. Some of the captions are wrong and I tried really hard to fix it but it keeps glitching. I apologise 🥲

First time climbing a 3high out of lines! I needed

First time climbing a 3high out of lines! I needed these playful vibes, and to tell myself that I didn't need the spotters because I was going straight up and then back down with no problems. I got shaky but I breathed and tried not to freak out too much. Reminding myself that I was fine. It's such a mental game after all! 😈

This moment was a long time in the making! At @partner_acro_aus in 2021 I did my first ever 3high and afterwards said "That was one and done. I never have to do that again now." It was terrifying but I trusted my base and mid and did it anyway. I felt like I was so high I was going to hit the top of the rig!!

A couple years later I tried again, and it felt less scary and more fun. Being in the lunge lines more and more made me feel invincible. We started adding in tricks and transitions, counterbalances and drops. I was content to just climb to my heart's desire, feeling safe in the rare instances where I had to get off quickly because something wasn't feeling good.

Then @ryn_hooligan and @the_mighty_caesar_ suggested working it out of lines. I was VERY resistant/ hesitant. It wasn't something I had thought about or cared about. But we took it slow, working progressions climbing halfway, prepping the final climb, sitting on shoulders, climbing carefully/calmly back down again, etc.

I think all those things together were probably harder than the actual climb, and @ryn_hooligan and I both got stronger and braver during those progressions. I have so much confidence in Ryn and am in awe of her drive and passion to improve and grow constantly.

Wouldn't have had my first 3high or 3high out of lines on anyone but @the_mighty_caesar_ who's belief in me sets me free. I loved the patience, and weeks spent drilling things over and over. But I also needed the push to take that final step.

Grateful for the courage and inspiration from my acro community. And to say I am constantly pushing my comfort zone and challenging my body/mind to do new, exciting, and scary things is such a gift. Not a week goes by that I'm not blown away by the talent, encouragement, generosity, and care this community offers. I have so much love and admiration for them! 🥰

ZalaHeart Yoga

Welcome to ZalaHeart Yoga, I'm Laura. These practices are about connection to ourselves and each other, a place to explore and be playful in a safe environment. I can't wait to share this with you!

Add some gentle movement into your day with ZalaHeart Yoga! This practice is great for children aged 3-8 years old. They can follow along by themselves, or if joined by an adult it's the perfect opportunity to bond with no distractions and to focus on finding connection and trust together.
The class will include a mixture of exercises and breath work for both adults and kids. It supports mindful movements that help parents to come back to themselves and kids to explore their bodies. The class will finish with quiet time to find stillness and reflection.

This short practice can be done daily to connect in and allow you and your child to move your bodies! Either at night before bed, or in the morning/afternoon.
Please encourage them to be expressive and join in with any sounds during the video. They may follow along or they may not, but as long as they are having fun that's all that matters 🎉
I hope you find this practice valuable, to move energy and to clear the mind. If this is your first time doing yoga you're doing amazing. And know that the practices get easier the more you do it 🙏

I also offer privates, group classes, and am available for workshops and events. You can find more information on my website:

***My Zoom classes for Kid's Yoga are not currently running***

A simple 30min class to ground you into your day. Just play your favourite music/playlist (I love Indian flutes or Hang drums) while flowing along :) It's perfect for any time of day, and will leave you with a feeling of stability and openness. Enjoy!
