I realized that hey, I talk about yoga, about my amazing clients who have me create anti-sunburn and hangover yoga routines, but the people reading me don't really know what I actually do. So I decided to detail all of this a bit, so you have an idea of what happens when you join Yoga with Clem. Because it's not just good vibes, there's a process, a logic to my madness. Every person who joins Yoga with Clem goes through the 5 initial steps of my method. This is what makes my follow-up...

One of my clients recently asked me a question that really made me think: "Have you ever felt disappointed in your yoga practice?" It brought me back to my early days, when I was obsessed with those insane poses I could see on Instagram: the splits, leg behind the head, arm balances... Back then, I was doing yoga before and after work, intensively, because I wanted to master everything. Every time I asked my teachers for advice, I heard the same response: "Practice and all is coming." The...

If it does not lead to more peace, it is not worth it. Use this simple framework next time you're not sure which way to go. Does it lead to more peace? If not, it's not in alignment. We put too much focus on more (productivity, money, social status, things to own), and not enough on what we're all surely longing for: peace. Life is only as complicated as we make it. Om, peace 🧡 Clem

Have you ever noticed how stress makes us time travel? But the vibe isn't exactly as cool as in Back to the Future (not to ruin your day but I just realised it was released FORTY years ago). Anyway, what we're talking about here is a much more insidious journey. 40 years... The Stress Journey Stress transports us to two toxic places: The Anxious Future You're already worried about upcoming deadlines You imagine all the catastrophic scenarios You doubt your ability to succeed Your brain is...

In a world constantly telling us "if you want it, you can achieve it" and promoting self-care at every turn, I've been reflecting on a crucial question: Are we truly responsible for our own well-being? Our generation has been raised on empowerment narratives, yet we sometimes forget that our mental and physical health doesn't solely depend on us. Social, cultural, environmental, and political contexts significantly impact how we feel. Media and social networks profit from our fears and...

This week, I want to encourage you to cut yourself some slack. Letting go is a very popular concept, and for good reason: we're constantly pulled in all directions, and at the same time, we never feel like we're doing enough. This leads us to have thoughts that are natural, but really not constructive, like: "if only life were simpler", "if only I had more time", "if only I had fewer things to manage". But guess what? Life is chaotic. That's the price to pay for a rich life, surrounded by...

Let’s talk about mental health. It’s a topic that’s close to my heart, both for personal reasons, and because it comes up often with my clients. One of them asked me last week: “What can you do when your self-esteem is at zero? How can yoga help you take that first step toward having a little bit of ego?” I think that’s such a powerful question. I truly believe that one of the main ways depression keeps itself going is through inaction. Depression makes you not want to do anything, so you...

Does it really matter if we're breathing through the nose or mouth? A short one today because one of my wonderful clients asked me this question last week, and I think you could all benefit from the answer. The answer is: yes, it matters. A LOT. And not only when doing yoga. If we've already practiced yoga together, you have probably heard me encourage you to breathe through your nose. Why? Because your nose is a wonderful machine. See, when the air comes in through your nostril, your nose...

You know what they say: "Variety is the spice of life." We all get it when it comes to food, it’s been drilled into us. When it comes to mental balance, it’s already a little trickier. Our brains love learning new things and exploring different perspectives… yet somehow we keep getting pulled into echo chambers that just feed us more of the same. But it’s just as true for our bodies, and that’s really what I want to talk to you about today. When it comes to movement, most of us are on an...
