Lots of rain
Heavy currents since yesterday, so I am safely dipping near the shore. The level is a lot higher too.
Some pics are from yesterday some from yesterday, you can already distinguish how the water is clearing up

I didn't sleep the amount of hours I would have liked to but I did sleep well, and I am enjoying this slow Sunday so far a lot. Yoga, reading, time at the river and with my cats, making a colourful salad... I'm heading to visit the closest waterfa...

Here we are, at a point of equilibrium. Darkness and light are equal. A good point to stop and reflect about our inner balance, about what could...
It took me ages to immerse today. I was standing in the middle of the river with the water until my waist for a really long time; I could just not find the moment. I felt really torn. I've been feeling colder in the last few days, and the warmer s...
2025-03-18 14:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostGoodness me. Yesterday I went to a new beach. Without expectations. And I found a paradise of turquoise sea. I found it quite cold, but mind you, the air temperature was only around 9 degrees. It looks like summer but it's definitely not!

A day full of many different things, from teaching Spanish to chainsaw action, from cat-related DIY to gardening... I loved all of it and now I'm definitely ready to stop ππΎ the river was a great activity to transition between some of them. ...
2025-03-14 17:22:53 +0000 UTC View PostToday's dip was incredibly beautiful. The morning was really rainy and cold, at some points the sky was really dark, as if it was getting closer to nighttime. When I came back from work I went to the river and sun came out!!! Really blessed to ha...
2025-03-13 14:43:28 +0000 UTC View PostBack home after my training. My heart is full after such a rich and nourishing long weekend. Sadly no swimmable/dippable rivers. I did check one waterfall out on my way there but it was a 'no' for me. Gladly I have my beloved river ππΎπ 2025-03-10 15:46:30 +0000 UTC View Post
Last dip in my swim spot for a few days. I'll be on a training in the middle of Spain. I've heard there's a river near the venue, so fingers crossed for some dips in a new river ππΎ really excited!
2025-03-06 19:24:13 +0000 UTC View PostI loved the ball of bramble roots floating in the river. How did they get to that point, only they know.
Water is still very cold, mad beautifully pristine. Day by day little changes appear, a few more birds and blossoms...
Such a good morning in the garden, preparing a new extension of the patch and planting some veggies. You can tell by my red cheeks that it was quite a lot of work. I felt super great going into the water afterwards
2025-03-03 17:56:07 +0000 UTC View PostMorning dips when the sun is out are so delicate in terms of light. I love the mist and being able to see my breath, both combining too, similar components.
Very mysterious, ethereal atmosphere.
Have a nice day!
There are a couple of nice musical events this weekend that I'd like to go, depending on energy levels π€πΎ and I've been feeling sociable again.
I'm at home in nature, I feel recharged and at ease. Nowadays going to events is very rare...
Super busy day. Came back home. Priority number one river, then food.
I could feel my nervous system calming down as soon as I entered the water. Time went slower and my appetite decreased for a bit (until I got home!)
I dipped twice today. The first one very early in the morning (air temp of 3 degrees) and at midday. They felt like different days.
In the morning I believe it was my shortest dip this winter, really freezing, and I could feel the cold get...
Yesterday I combined the faery waterfall and this favourite beach of mine. Double dose of bliss. I thought I was going to walk along the coastal path but my body only wanted to lay down in the sand, rest, soak in sun (clothes on, still chilly), sw...

Today I just walked a few meters up the river where I normally dip, and it felt so different, like entering another world. Thanks to rock and moss and rays of sun filtering through the branches. Gorgeous little place that invited my imagination. I...
2025-02-19 13:05:12 +0000 UTC View PostWow the last few days have been like a century; so rich!
Now I'm back home, in my river. Gorgeous to reconnect with river after a few days without the possibility to swim.
Today I'm flying to the UK for some days of training. So I made the most out of the river dip. Really taking in all the medicine it gives me π
Looking forward to being back in the UK, my second home, learning and being with lovely collea...

I'm really feeling this transition from winter to spring, both outside and inside. Inside it comes as waves of energy followed by waves of low energy. Just like the weather these days rapidly changing from heavy rain, hail, to sunshine. Outer natu...
