Hi Everyone,
It’s been such a long time since I’ve written but what a beautiful and busy time it’s been!
We’re in heart of Summer (and what a Summer it’s been so far!), schools have broken up, people are travelling, nature is in full bloom and it’s hot hot hot!
I can’t help but feel uplifted when I look out of my window every day and see the vibrancy of colour and fullness of the plants, trees and flowers from my garden across to the allotments. Nature just feels so alive: the sounds of the birds, the scampering of the squirrels and the buzzing of the bee’s just gives me an extra spring in my step.
Living Your Yoga has been all go last term with it’s first AMAZING yoga retreat in Turkey; June’s beautiful Yoga Nidra & Sound Bath Event; Sunday monthly online classes with The Feminine Connection Subscription Service, along with all of our regular weekly classes and the Funky Wellness Radio Show. It has definitely been one of my favourite terms to date! I hope that you’ve enjoyed all that LYY has had to offer over recent months…and there’s more to come as always.
Yoga Shala at Grenadine Lodge, Dalyan, Turkey. June 2026.

LYY community exploring inversions supporting one another
LYY SUMMER YOGA CHALLENGE 2026
Over the years, I’ve tried to keep our community connected to one another and our yoga practice during the holidays. We’ve spent many of our holidays doing the Sun Salutation Challenge, so this time I wanted to do something a bit different!
Join me this Summer with a 21 Day Yoga Challenge, beginning on Monday 10th August at 7.30am where we’ll be practicing together on YouTube for 21 minutes a day., everyday ! And if you sleep in, don’t worry, the class will stay on the Living Your Yoga channel for you to practice when you’re ready.
The classes will be live Monday - Friday, there’ll be a recorded flow on the Saturday and a recorded Yoga Nidra for the Sunday practice.
Subscribe to the channel here for free to receive the information and links to the daily practice.
I look forward to practicing with you and anyone else you’d like to share these details with. The practices will be suitable for all levels, designed to get us moving and breathing together, welcoming the day :)

YOGA RETREAT: TURKEY 2027
This year’s Yoga Retreat at Grenadine Lodge at Dalyan in Turkey, was nothing short of a truly heavenly, uplifting and inspiring experience. The days were spent practicing yoga for 2 hours upon waking looking out onto the hotels orangery and mountainous surroundings; a delicious breakfast provided by the gorgeous staff; relaxing by the pool, cycling to the town or going on an excursion to the local market, the haman, a boat trip or a visit to the ruins, a mud bath or turtle sanctuary; a late afternoon restorative yoga class; followed by more fresh produce for dinner and then an evening chatting at the hotel bar, a meal out or some quiet time for oneself in the air conditioned apartment. Everyone on the retreat got to know one another and days were spent joyously full of laughter, conversation, connection and ease. We had such a lovely time that on returning, I agreed to teach on the retreat next year and over 11 spaces have been booked already. I will teach a maximum of 20 people on the retreat.

FUNKY WELLNESS RADIO SHOW
Since starting Funky Wellness this year, I have recorded 23 shows with a whole range of fantastic and inspiring guests from all different backgrounds, experience and interest in health and wellness. I’m now taking a break from the show over the Summer and will return in September. Recent shows have included the lovely Sports massage Therapist Andrea Ramus; the gorgeous reflexologist Nikki Cahill; the fabulous Nat & Sal from Meno Quirks Podcast; the wonderful Susie & Laura Feminine Connection Subscribers; the talented musician and sports & laryngeal therapist Charlie Ward, and more recently my first ever solo show on Yoga with questions from our community! To listen again to all shows, my wonderful partner has created a page on my website dedicated to Funky Wellness, with dates and guest description of each show, so that you’re able to access all shows with ease. Click here to go Funky Wellness!
There is also a link here for anyone that would like to be a sponsor for my show and a Just Giving page for anyone that is in a position to donate to Radio Abbey. We are all volunteers at Radio Abbey and to keep the Radio Station going we rely on donation and sponsorship.
Phew! I think that’s enough for now. Thank you if you have read this far.
I’ll be sending out a mini newsletter in the coming weeks to keep you updated on Summer happenings and preparing for Autumn term classes and events, but I think we have enough to look forward to for now!
I’ll leave you with my favourite disco song to boogie to here and I hope to see you on the mat soon.
Much Love,
Lucy xx
