I struggled to find any recorded birth affirmations that I didn't find cringey or a little heavy-handed on the day spa background music, so I created my own! These affirmations focus on the power of surrender and allowing birth to happen, as well as reminding us we are safe to birth, ready to birth and that birth can be joyful and beautiful.

Cyclical Being: Autumn/Winter of your Cycle (Part 3 of 3)
In this final episode of the Cyclical Being series, we explore the profound spiritual practice of the menstrual cycle's autumn and winter phases. Picking up where we left off at ovulation—the peak of summer—we dive into the descent toward autumn, where the body begins to shed, reflect, and retreat in preparation for winter, the most dormant and introspective phase of the cycle. Anna guides you through the transformative power of this transition, showing how the premenstrual and bleeding phase...

Cyclical Being: Spring/Summer of Your Cycle (Part 2 of 3)

Creative energy does not just take the form of conception of a baby Towards what are you dedicating your creative energy? Are we outputting energy in a way that aligns with our values and our dharma? These are the questions that lead us to truly...

Cyclical Being: Understanding the transitions within your cycle (Part 1 of 3)
How to track your menstrual cycle and why it matters. This episode explains a unique two-phase approach to cycle awareness that might just offer you more more ease in the way you think about your cycle and plan your life around your cycle. I know for some, even just me saying the words "plan your life around your cycle" might bring up a level of discomfort because perhaps you wish that your cycle is something that would just happen silently in the background and not impact on your day to day...

Yoga Nidra Journey to Align with your Authentic Desires
In this yoga nidra, we journey towards a state of creative visualisation in which you can align with your authentic desires, and bring to light the highest vision you have for yourself in this lifetime. “In yoga nidra we experience a state of harmony between body, brain, and mind. Then the unconscious barriers and blockages within the personality, which exist due to our negativity, are removed and the healing power of the mind begins to manifest.” - Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati...

Yoga Nidra Journey for Clarity and Ease
In this yoga nidra, we move through the stages of sankalpa (intention setting), rotation of awareness, pranayama (breath awareness) and creative visualisation. Each of these is designed to lead the body and mind into a state in which we can let go of tension from past events and emerge with more clarity and ease. “When awareness is separate and distinct from mental activity, when waking, dream and deep sleep pass like clouds, yet awareness of Self remains, this is the experience of total rel...

Manifesting with Vision Boards
Can a vision board really bring your dreams to life? I believe YES, but there are a few subtle but important techniques we need to understand to make the most of this practice. The ability to manifest is a natural byproduct of a spiritually-attuned life. When we have clarity around our desires and what our unique purpose in life is, the joy and beauty we are seeking in life seems to find us! A vision board is just a useful tool to assist in this process. In this podcast I explain: how man...

Chapter One of 'Everything I Do Not Know'
Being at peace with not knowing came to represent something very powerful to me: faith. We cannot know how life will unfold, or when or why, but we can find ways of trusting in the unknowing, and in that trusting I have found we receive a special kind of access to working with the subtle forces that are at play in our life. Being at peace with not knowing, having faith, is a very powerful place to be, and it's the place I invite you into in the book. In this episode I read to you chapter one ...

What is a mystic?
The spiritual world is FULL of different labels that seek to define who or what people believe in. All the jargon can be a little confusing, and perhaps not very helpful in dissolving the boundaries that exist between us so we can find mutual understanding and respect. It can also feel scary to 'claim' spiritual vocabulary for ourself. It's as if we think we need to reach a certain level of holiness before we could identify as belonging to a particular group. Over the years, I've come to i...
