You love your kids more than anything.
But holy moly.... sometimes the noise, the emotions, the endless “Mum! Mum! Dad! Dad!” — it’s a lot.
You want to stay calm. You want to respond, not react.
But when your child is melting down… your nervous system joins the party too.
You’ve tried deep breathing, gentle parenting tips, mindfulness apps — but they never quite stick.
You need something that works in real life — something that brings calm without pressure and connection without guilt.
That’s what The Family Yoga Vault is all about.
I used to think being soft made me a bad parent.
I’d been told I was “too gentle,” and I believed it even though I felt anything but sometimes.
One morning, I completely lost it. My kids were fighting, we were late, and I smashed their Lego build on the floor.
I was a yoga teacher, I was doing the gentle parenting stuff, I was usually patient..... and still, I snapped.
That was my wake-up call. I felt so bad, I'm even embarrassed sharing it now. It was horrible!
I realised calm can't be faked and it's not about knowing how you want to act and be. It's about building your emotional capacity - so that you can feel that dysregulation and then be able to bring yourself back BEFORE you react in a way you don't want to act. And for kids who lack impulse control anyway.... this is huge!
We alllllll need this work. And how beautiful it is that we can share it with them so young.
I started being really intentional about bringing these practices into our life — 5 minutes of movement here, a yoga game, a playful breathing practice, a moment to journal or colour mindfully.....and slowly, our home changed.
The chaos didn’t disappear, but it softened.
My kids started saying things like, “I’m overwhelmed — can we do yoga together?”
That’s when I knew this was bigger than just fun yoga.
And that’s how The Family Yoga Vault was born — a toolkit to help families come back to balance together, no matter how messy life gets.

What Changes When You Bring This Into Your Home
Let’s be real.... family life can feel like a rollercoaster some days.
One minute you’re calm and connected, the next you’re yelling “Just brush your teeth!” like your life depends on it.
Before I found these practices, our home was… loud.
Mornings were rushed, evenings were meltdowns, and I went to bed thinking, “I know better than this — why can’t I just stay calm?”
But here’s what shifted: I stopped trying to be calm all the time and started learning how to come back when things got messy.
Now?
There’s still chaos (of course there is — we’re human).
But there’s also laughter between the chaos.
There are quick yoga games that dissolve the tension.
There are moments when my kids say, “Mum, can we do a calm-down practice?” instead of slamming doors.
And even when things go sideways, we all know how to find our way back.
That’s the transformation waiting for you too.
You’re not becoming a perfectly zen parent — you’re becoming a real one.
One who can breathe through the hard stuff, reconnect quicker, and build a home that feels safer, softer, and waaaay more fun.
If you’re waiting for the ‘right time’ to start, I get it.... but the truth is, life doesn’t slow down on its own.
Calm doesn’t just happen — we create it, one small moment at a time.
The longer you wait, the more those chaotic days pile up ad the more stress that builds and builds.
Start now, before it becomes another week of yelling, guilt, meltdowns, tantrums and wishing that things felt easier.
🌿 Frequently Asked (and Totally Valid) Questions
Q: What if I don’t have time for this?
A: There’s a quote about meditation that I love — it says, “You should meditate for 20 minutes a day unless you don’t have time… then you should meditate for an hour.”
If we don’t have five or ten minutes to connect with our kids in this way, something’s off. These practices aren’t another thing to fit in — they help you slow things down so life feels easier.
Q: Will this work for my child?
A: This isn’t about forcing something that isn’t right. It’s about meeting your family where they are and exploring practices together in a way that feels fun and natural. You get to experiment, and find what fits your family’s rhythm.
Q: My kids won’t do yoga — what if they refuse?
A: Mine still say “no” sometimes too! Kids are busy building Lego worlds and Minecraft castles. But here’s the thing: if I say, “Do you want to play a game?” — they’re in.
Sometimes I just roll out my mat and start moving — and within 30 seconds, they’ve turned off their screens and joined in. The secret is, they don’t even realise they’re regulating — they’re just having fun.
Q: We’re not a calm family — will this even work for us?
A: Oh, join the chaos club! We’re a family that gets overwhelmed and overstimulated easily too — but we’ve learned how to come back. Regulation isn’t about being calm all the time, it’s about recovery.
Our nervous system naturally moves between activation and rest. That’s healthy. This work helps your family build the capacity to move between those states with more ease.
Q: I’m not a “yoga person.”
A: Yoga’s been misrepresented, honestly. It’s not about flexibility or perfect poses. The ancient texts say yoga is “the calming of the fluctuations of the mind so we can rest in our true selves.”
That’s it. It’s about coming back to yourself.
And we’re just making that ancient wisdom playful and accessible — for kids and grown-ups alike.
Q: What if I can’t stick with it?
A: The truth is — you probably won’t. Life happens. You’ll forget for a while, then something will remind you, and you’ll come back to the practices. And that’s okay.
That’s the whole point — regulation isn’t linear. You don’t fail at this; you just return to it when you need it most.
