Hello, I’m Michelle from Opting Out, based in Brighton (and sometimes London), UK. Subscribers can enjoy monthly posts around slow living, rest, and opting out of burnout culture, plus my weekly Weekend Mood Board of what’s currently inspiring me. Paid subscribers get access to ALL my work, including the Slow Reading Group, live Co-Resting sessions, yoga nidra audios and pre-recorded full-length restorative and yin yoga classes.
It’s my intention to create a community of resters, questioners and misfits. Are you in? ✨
What I’m reading:
Deep into Ocean Vuong’s The Emperor of Gladness and it’s good! Exploring chosen family, addiction, work and relationships.
What I’m enjoying:
Morning movement.
The heated throw.
What I’m listening to:
The mighty Goblin Band, who I had the pleasure of seeing live last weekend.
What I’m Noticing:
The hormonal ebbs and flows of the perimenopause journey (very much ebb this week!)
What I’m Eating:
Butternut squash and sage risotto.
What I’m Grateful For:
Supportive practices.
People who get it.
Autumn sunshine.
Walks in the rain.
What I’m Looking Forward To:
The Mandala Method Facilitator’s retreat this weekend.
What’s Inspiring Me:
Late night philosophical discussions.
Making time for rest.
