HONOUR YOUR BLEED 🩸🌹 Announcing four NEW playlists on the @mysoulsanctuary platform, to help you move with your menstrual cycle. These carefully curated collections honour the natural rhythms of your body with a new video for each phase, plus seven additional practices to support you throughout your cycle, all available through the Soul Sanctuary membership. PLAYLISTS: ❄️ Menstruation: Sacred Stillness - Embrace stillness with nurturing flows as you reset and restore. 🌸 Follicular: Blooming Beginnings - Ignite your creativity and flow with practices that nurture renewal. ☀️ Ovulation: Radiance in Motion - Celebrate your energy and self-expression in this peak phase. 🍂 Luteal: Grounding Shift Embrace - Find balance and grounding as you connect with your emotions. I hope these offerings support you in feeling empowered and in tune with your body. I loved filming the new classes for you, and I deeply believe that connecting to movement through these beautiful phases will help you anchor into a sense of liberation for your body and energy. Lots of love, Cat ❤️ #mysoulsanctuary #catmeffanyoga #phasesofthemonth #menstrualcycle #flowingwithyourcycle

Things you should know… ☀️ I felt so alive watching myself dance with such joy in the camera. ☀️ I’m aware my salsa moves aren’t pro and I’m not in time with the music. ☀️ Perfectionism is just an illusion. ☀️ Dancing will always set my soul on fire. ☀️ This energy was at 7:30am this morning. I love mornings. ☀️ It’s ok if you’re triggered by how much I’m feeling myself. I’ve been there. I know. ☀️ You are loved. ☀️ Dancing is never a bad idea. ☀️ We also did this as a group in our embodied movement session on retreat this morning. #dance #salsa #freedom #embodiment #feelingmyself

Coming in hot with the confidence to post just one stand-alone photo like the good-old IG days, hoping it doesn’t bomb because I haven’t made a reel or a carousel out of it. 😂🥰 Let retreat life begin. My first retreat of 2025 and it’s off to THE MOST BEAUTIFUL start. Here’s to many more this year. ❤️

I took my younger self for coffee. We both arrived 5 minutes early. I ordered a single shot oat flat white and she got a mint tea. “We hate coffee” she said. I replied “We learnt to really appreciate good coffee, but we don’t waste money on bad coffee” She starts telling me about her morning, getting up at 5am, tube into London, workout class, no breakfast, straight to her desk at a job she enjoys because of the people, but has no real passion for. I listen carefully; she feels frantic, unsure, and on-edge, constantly sitting up straight, pulling up her jeans to “hide my muffin tops” she says. She asks if we ever find a new passion after the dream of being a dancer was taken away. I tell her yes. And we still dance every single day. We hold space for people (mostly women) to feel empowered and confident in their body, soul and mind, through the power of movement. I tell her about sound healing, breathwork, light language. She laughs, rolls her eyes and says she’ll never be one of those crazy woowoo people. “Trust me” I say, “It’s already within you, one day it will all make sense. Just be patient” She laughs and says she’ll never be patient. I laugh too, she’s right, we never will be. She says she has to go now, she’s going to Topshop on Oxford Street, even though she’s told her mum she’s working late. All to avoid needing to eat dinner. My heart reaches out for her. If only she knew that her worth wasn’t defined by her weight or how she looks. I decide to tell her this. She asks “Do we ever recover?”. Yes I say, but it’s a journey of ups and downs, one of momentary set backs and low days of feeling lost again. I tell her that the journey is worth it, that in the end we wake up every day feeling so blessed to have such a strong body, blessed to have a strong soul and blessed to have a husband who also reminds her of these things. As I leave I shout “You already know your future husband! Guess who!” ❤️
