A glass here and there, something I instinctively felt good drinking long before I fully understood why. And over the past month, thanks to a lovely friend who gave me some grains, I’ve started making my own milk kefir at home, and honestly, it has felt like the final little piece of my peri-menopause puzzle. Since drinking homemade kefir daily, I’ve noticed surprisingly significant changes.

Most people notice it at some point. The spine doesn’t move quite as easily, the hips feel tighter, and there’s a general sense of stiffness that wasn’t there before, even if you’re still relatively active. It’s easy to put this down to ageing, but what’s really changing is the behaviour of the connective tissues in the body. And you do not have to 'put up with it'!

On 1st May, we meet the full moon. We are not yet in the height of summer, and not yet in the softness of early spring, but we find ourselves in that in-between space where things are no longer just beginning, and not yet fully formed.

Today’s new moon rises in Aries, the first sign of the zodiac and the point from which everything begins again. If Pisces was the dream, the dissolving, the softening at the edges… Aries is the moment we open our eyes and decide what we are going to do with it.

This month, I invite you into the element of air, and into something even more refined than that - space. This is the place of the heart. Not just the physical heart, but the energetic centre of Anahata. The space where breath moves freely. Where we meet ourselves and others with a little more gentleness. Where we begin to soften the edges we have been holding so tightly.

April’s full moon brings with it a sense of encouragement and dynamism. It symbolises courage, renewal and blossoming - it is a moon of change.

On 19th March, we arrive at the New Moon in Pisces, the final new moon of the astrological year. There is something quietly powerful about this particular moment in the lunar cycle. Pisces sits at the very end of the zodiac wheel, where things soften, dissolve, and begin to return to the great ocean of possibility. This is not simply a beginning. It is a threshold between an ending and a beginning.

Fire is often associated with intensity, transformation, and power. But in yoga philosophy, fire also has another quality that is quieter, but just as important: clarity.

We may not be able to change everything happening across the globe, but we can shape the atmosphere in our homes, our streets, and our communities. A small act of kindness offered quietly, right where we are, is never insignificant. In its own gentle way, it helps tip the balance of the world toward a little more care.
