Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Finding it hard to believe that PP was released nearly 20 years ago… 

I never thought that a day out in London with my mum (going to an audition, my first ever, attended only for the novelty) would have been such a significant turning point. A few months later, off we went to Australia to film. 

Here I am pictured in my dressing room, kind of taking it all in my stride/ not knowing what was going on, but that I’d end the day watching Nickelodeon with my little brother.

Being a child actor is weird af. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Ps @jeremysumpterofficially are we ever gonna work together again!?

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - What’s he about to say? Wrong answers only.
Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - 12 years old, on board the flight to Australia to film Peter Pan, my most beloved @beverleyknight CD (Who I Am) playing on my Walkman. Awkward, shy, a bit weird. 

Not a lot’s changed except I no longer own that Walkman. 

What were you like at that age? 🧚‍♀️
Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Tigerlily and Wendy! We were best friends during the filming of Peter Pan (nearly 20 years ago 😱) and now we’re digital penpals across the pond.

@iamcarsengray is one of the purest hearts out there, not to mention an incredible mama and musical talent. She’s the one who encouraged me to push through when I had feeding issues with my little Stella and the reason I’m still able to breastfeed now. A proper earth mother. 🌸

Pretty amazing how people weave in and out of your life, and can have such profound impact. 💕

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - The wonderful @emjaybassett recently sent me these throwback pics of shooting ‘Solomon Kane’ (2007). 

I played Meredith, a puritan girl who needed rescued from scary demons by the titular character. We filmed in the beautiful Czech Republic countryside and froze our 🍑‘s off, but had a lot of laughs along the way. 

I also learned a few Czech words and phrases, one of which is the tongue-twister ‘Strč prst skrz krk’. I always thought it was something to do with firefighters but I just googled it and apparently it means stick a finger through the neck!?

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - tb to being a redhead in Perfume. Think this was the day I filmed a scene in France, mainly involving my feet and legs getting out of a 🛀 , then flew back to England in time for my afternoon’s school classes. Being a child actor was weird.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - I finally got to watch this beautiful film, and loved it. Such fantastic performances from @everanderson and @alexandermolonyofficial as Wendy and Peter. They truly made the characters their own. 

As a sort of Neverland alumni, I felt proud to witness this new version. The one that will make a whole new generation of kids fall in love with the magic. 

When my two children are a little older, I’ll be sure to show them this film. Many of the cast members of the 2003 Peter Pan are parents too, now - we grew up! 

A huge well done to all involved 💗
Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Did some acting today… playing someone cold and entitled. It’s always quite nice to pretend you don’t give a 🐒 about being perceived as polite or friendly.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - It’s all worth it 🥰

So much of parenting is bone-aching exhaustion, being pushed to your limits and questioning yourself. But then, watching how sweet Liam is with his sister, how if she’s crying he’ll get her a toy or sing to her, is so totally heart melting I don’t even know what to do with myself. Makes me think I’m doing something right. 

As I’m typing this, Stella is asleep on me after we slow danced to @oliviarodrigo and everything feels perfect. 💕

The little ones are dressed in ultimate cosy and eco-chic leggings and matching jumpers from @thesimplefolkco 🤍

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - 🤳🏻 I took this pic a couple of weeks ago with the intention of posting it along with a positive message. Since then, with the whole Omicron of it all, I’ve just been hunkering down and being a social media creeper, doing lots of browsing of all my fave clothes brands to distract from the background hum of covid worry. 

🎊 We had lots of pre and post Christmas plans for travel and socialising but have decided to postpone everything until things have settled again. It’s just everywhere, isn’t it!?

🦷 Meanwhile Stella’s getting her two front teeth just in time for Christmas (spare a thought for nursing mums of teething babies) and has a new habit of needing to claw my face (and gums!?) while falling asleep. Anyone else had that?

I’m wearing a fantastic @bravadodesigns nursing bra (gifted), perfect for feeding and feeling comfy and supported ☺️ when not getting bitten or clawed…

I wore heels for the first time since 2019 and was very happy to see some old friends. 

We stayed at @thehoxtonhotel as my bday present from Russ and ate our bodyweight in toast and Oreos.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Dreamy moments at home with my little girl. 

I’m sooo excited because we’ve just booked a holiday to California! 🇺🇸

It’s been ages since I’ve left the country (aside from a few days in Scotland last summer) and I can’t wait for some heat and a change of scene. ☀️

The last time I was in the US, I was pregnant with Liam - it’s funny to be travelling back there with my two children! 

If anyone has travel tips re. little ones, please do share! ✈️

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - How’s everyone? 

Here’s a diary extract from the last week. I’ve been a little quiet on here as I’ve been laid up in bed with some sort of flu 😷 it wasn’t the Rona (I’m fully vaccinated anyway) but still knocked me out. Thankfully Russ and my mum were around to take care of the kids. 

After being a bit concerned that Stella was on the small side (people keep commenting on how petite she is), she was weighed today and I’m really happy that she’s doing just fine. She’s not that into food so we’re taking it slow with weaning. 🍌

I often wonder if there’s more to my life than just my kids as since they’ve arrived, they’ve been the focus and dominant force. It’s oft-repeated but true that they are now the reason for everything I do, every choice I make. Everything from work to lifestyle, big decisions and small are (mostly) made to prioritise them. Obviously they’re the most important thing but sometimes I long for the time to really focus on something else. And not just for the hour after they go to bed. Idk this is turning into an essay now but just felt like sharing. 🌷
Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - How is it nearly December?! Can’t believe we’re already discussing when to put up our Christmas tree. 🎄 

Trying to decide whether to allow Liam a chocolate advent calendar or go traditional. I know which I’d prefer 🍫 but he’s enough of a treat addict as it is. What are your thoughts?

Both Stella and I are really into my beautiful new bag from @pompomlondon (gifted). It’s the perfect size for all your essentials (& a little extra!) and you can mix and match the straps 💙

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - On a run, thinking about an earlier convo with Liam:

(frantically trying to finish a piece of work with an impending deadline before Stella wakes from her nap, and Liam interrupting every 30 seconds):

Liam: Mummy, I’m bored.
Me: Can you play with some of your new toys? There’s a whole bag of them there. 

*patters out, then back in again*

Liam: I don’t want to play with any of those toys. 
Me: Oh dude, please can you just give me five minutes? Then I promise we’ll play all afternoon.
Liam: Oh-kayyy. I’ll just go in there and wait. 
Me: Well don’t do that, why don’t you build me a tower or something?

*patters out, then back in again*

Me: Oh Liam, what is it now?
Liam: Mummy, my pretend husband’s name is Beef.
Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Feeling relatively peaceful, and lucky that Russ is around to help with the kids, allowing me to go for a run this morning. Something that would have once felt like a chore, is now a huge privilege to have the time to do. (Running with a pram doesn’t give quite the same sense of freedom, I have tried it, but Stella just gets frustrated at being cooped up nowadays!)

Grateful for the blue sky and a hit of endorphins today. And borrowing Russ’s @patagonia jacket, lightweight and warm against the 🥶

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Had a wonderful few days in London recording an audiobook. It’s been a while since I’ve worked anywhere but from home, and while that has its advantages, actually going to a nice building and being around professionals was such a treat!

Even the sweaty morning tube commute felt like a luxury (especially after two nights of caring for a toddler with a stomach bug 😅)

There’s such pressure (externally and internally) for mothers to live up to some ‘perfect’ ideal - whether that pertains to career, looks, parenting, anything. If you’ve been following me a while, you’ll know I’m keen to steer clear of perfectionism, and focus on doing what’s best for me and my family, whatever that looks like. While I’ve loved having so much time at home with my little ones (mostly), I’m starting to feel ready for the next chapter, the one beyond 24/7 motherhood.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - So there’s something I’ve debated sharing about on here for ages. But if openness and honesty can help just one person feel less alone, then it’s worth it, right? 🤷🏼‍♀️ (TW: It’s on the sensitive topic of disordered eating). 

From my teens until a few years ago, I had a really disordered relationship with food. It wasn’t something I needed medical help with or anything, but it dominated my mind and life for waaaay too long. 

After my first child was born, I finally became ready to confront it and read ‘Just Eat It’ by @laurathomasphd which totally changed everything. It’s been a work in progress, but I’ve had sustained and blissful relief from the mental obsession that came with the binge/restrict cycle I was trapped in and have felt genuinely neutral about eating and my body since adopting the Intuitive Eating approach. ☀️

Over the Christmas holidays, I found myself slipping back into old ways and acting out (feeling/being out of control, overeating until it hurt on the regular, obsession, generally being weird about it all).

Thankfully, I have enough self-compassion and desire to heal that I have recalibrated back into a more balanced, mentally peaceful state. Big middle finger to diets, it’s not about that, but returning to equilibrium and just getting on with my life and enjoying eating rather than being ruled by it. 

I wanted to share in case anyone else can relate and if so, point them lovingly towards the wonderful work of @intuitiveeatingldn as well as @diet.culture.rebel for really helpful professional guidance on Intuitive Eating and recovery ❤️‍🩹 from disordered eating. 

Please only take guidance on all things related to nutrition from qualified sources (doctors and registered dieticians/nutritionists) rather than ‘wellness influencers’ who’ll be extra noisy this time of year. 

As always, sending you love 💗

I know I’m getting my confidence and sense of self back when I get the urge to work on creative projects again- it feels good!

If your eye has been drawn to this beautiful bag, I don’t blame you. It’s from @tiggyandbo and holds anything and everything. It gives me a feeling of being dressed up and glam even when doing the nursery run in my PJ’s 😊

Being a total over-thinker, sometimes I deliberate on what to post on here. There’s the updates on life kinda thing, the more informative thing-

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Today I’m going to try and practice not overthinking everything. There’s a lot of darkness in the world (aren’t we all painfully aware) but today I’m going to (try and) stay focused on what’s in front of me, what I can do to make things go smoother. 

Are you an over thinker or are you more of a do-er ? What are your tips? X

Ps This beautiful mug is from @fenellasmithlondon (gifted) and I’d love to claim is full of lemon water but that would be a lie. ☕️

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - We’ve been so lucky to fit in travel before getting entrenched in term times. First Spain, now California. I don’t know about you, but I even kind of enjoy jet lag!? It makes me feel dreamily disassociated, and I like being up in the quiet before dawn. 

I wanted to share some of my fave products that I’ve been using on my travels - from @lavera_uk. (Products gifted). They use all natural ingredients and give my complexion the boost it needs :)

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Didn’t break a sweat on this morning’s run because it’s sooo cold! ❄️ Frozen ears and fingers!

I’m not very good at running - not particularly fast, no amazing stamina. But I do it because it makes me feel better. I’ve never gone for a run and felt worse after…

…but I know it’s not for everyone. As a Pilates teacher, I always recommend people find a form of movement they enjoy, and do that. Forget what you think you ‘should’ do. 

What do you enjoy?

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Sunday mode 🛌 

There’s so much emphasis on productivity and achieving that it’s easy to forget to slow down. Even though taking care of two small children is a full-time job in itself, I often feel under self-imposed pressure to ‘do more’. As the season changes, it’s a good time to slow down and prioritise rest wherever possible. Both mentally and physically.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - After a looooong time of taking a dim view of my body, I finally made peace with it a few years ago. Now, two babies later, I’ve got the opportunity to work through whole new layers of self acceptance! (Yay 🎉😐)

Jokes aside, my focus now is on feeling well, mentally and physically. Anything that has the opposite effect has to go. 

What with your skin being the biggest organ in your body and all, it’s worth taking care of. I’m loving the new Women’s Balance Body Collection* from @nealsyardremedies. I might not be able to make it to a spa on the regular, but the aromatherapy scents are still so relaxing 💗

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - ☀️ ‘I just want to feel how they look’ - how I used to feel about anyone I saw, online or IRL, who seemed to have it together. 

🏝 Maybe they wore chic designer clothes, could contort themselves into spectacular yoga poses, claimed to live on smoothies and superfood salads. Whatever it was, I’d compare how I felt (a mess, chaotic, insecure, inadequate) to those I envied and end up feeling worse than I already did. Compare and despair.

🤷🏼‍♀️ In my experience, most people don’t actually know wtf they’re doing half the time, aren’t satisfied in all areas of life or feel emotionally stable, let alone that elusive idea of ‘happy’ (which I used to think meant elated, but actually can just mean calm).

💗  I’ve found it helps to focus on the things that are good in your own life, to live authentically, and nurture what’s important to you.

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Beginning to feel festive now after taking Liam to a Christmas fair today ⭐️ thankfully both kids on the mend now, although I’m starting to feel run down as of today…

I’ve recently found @loopearplugs to be a dream for keeping noise stimulation down in loud environments (like my house)- they help me keep my zen in trying times! 🧘🏼‍♀️

Oh and Loop has a great Christmas offer! Buy 3, Get 4. Or you can use LOOPXRACHEL for 20% on one or two pairs 😌

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Still figuring things out… still don’t have definitive answers. Wouldn’t it be ideal if we had control and more certainty of how life will turn out!? 

I’m doing my best to practice letting go of expectations, of the outcome of things. What do you find helpful for this?

(Internally my head is often chaotic but externally it’s cute af thanks to @powder_uk’s shades and headband)

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Beginning to feel like the author of my own life… 

I’ve spent so many years subcontracting out life decisions to other people. Becoming a mother has meant it’s time to grow up and face the music. 

Turns out it’s better when you create the life you want for yourself 💗

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Spa day ⭐️ 

Got treated to a day at @glassworkshealthclub in the beautiful city of Cambridge yesterday by my kind husband. After a massage, sauna and jacuzzi overlooking the river, I feel brand new!

How much simpler did the world feel even three years ago…

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - More from Norfolk… we stayed at the fantastic @thehostearms in Burnham Market. It more than made up for a less than perfect birthday last week 😅 

The food was so good - they do a wonderful vegan cheesecake - and it was such a treat to lie in bed watching tv once the kids were asleep 🌟

Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram - Secrets: 

1) I’ve written a book of poems and I don’t know what to do with it ✍🏻 

2) My #1 dream is to take my kids to Nepal🇳🇵 

3) Every year I plan to get flexy enough to do the splits and every year it doesn’t happen 🤸🏼‍♂️

4) Your turn! Tell me something 🙂

I’m using @lavera_uk natural cosmetics (swipe to see!) - including their gorgeous foundation which I didn’t even use a primer for and still kept my skin looking/feeling hydrated and smooth :) 🌸 (products gifted)

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 50.8K Likes - Finding it hard to believe that PP was released nearly 20 years ago… 

I never thought that a day out in London with my mum (going to an audition, my first ever, attended only for the novelty) would have been such a significant turning point. A few months later, off we went to Australia to film. 

Here I am pictured in my dressing room, kind of taking it all in my stride/ not knowing what was going on, but that I’d end the day watching Nickelodeon with my little brother.

Being a child actor is weird af. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Ps @jeremysumpterofficially are we ever gonna work together again!?

@iamcarsengray is one of the purest hearts out there, not to mention an incredible mama and musical talent. She’s the one who encouraged me to push through when I had feeding issues with my little Stella and the reason I’m still able to breastfeed now. A proper earth mother. 🌸

Pretty amazing how people weave in and out of your life, and can have such profound impact. 💕

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 24.8K Likes - The wonderful @emjaybassett recently sent me these throwback pics of shooting ‘Solomon Kane’ (2007). 

I played Meredith, a puritan girl who needed rescued from scary demons by the titular character. We filmed in the beautiful Czech Republic countryside and froze our 🍑‘s off, but had a lot of laughs along the way. 

I also learned a few Czech words and phrases, one of which is the tongue-twister ‘Strč prst skrz krk’. I always thought it was something to do with firefighters but I just googled it and apparently it means stick a finger through the neck!?

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 15.5K Likes - I finally got to watch this beautiful film, and loved it. Such fantastic performances from @everanderson and @alexandermolonyofficial as Wendy and Peter. They truly made the characters their own. 

As a sort of Neverland alumni, I felt proud to witness this new version. The one that will make a whole new generation of kids fall in love with the magic. 

When my two children are a little older, I’ll be sure to show them this film. Many of the cast members of the 2003 Peter Pan are parents too, now - we grew up! 

A huge well done to all involved 💗

So much of parenting is bone-aching exhaustion, being pushed to your limits and questioning yourself. But then, watching how sweet Liam is with his sister, how if she’s crying he’ll get her a toy or sing to her, is so totally heart melting I don’t even know what to do with myself. Makes me think I’m doing something right. 

As I’m typing this, Stella is asleep on me after we slow danced to @oliviarodrigo and everything feels perfect. 💕

The little ones are dressed in ultimate cosy and eco-chic leggings and matching jumpers from @thesimplefolkco 🤍

Since then, with the whole Omicron of it all, I’ve just been hunkering down and being a social media creeper, doing lots of browsing of all my fave clothes brands to distract from the background hum of covid worry. 

🎊 We had lots of pre and post Christmas plans for travel and socialising but have decided to postpone everything until things have settled again. It’s just everywhere, isn’t it!?

🦷 Meanwhile Stella’s getting her two front teeth just in time for Christmas (spare a thought for nursing mums of teething babies) and has a new habit of needing to claw my face (and gums!?) while falling asleep. Anyone else had that?

I’m wearing a fantastic @bravadodesigns nursing bra (gifted), perfect for feeding and feeling comfy and supported ☺️ when not getting bitten or clawed…

I’m sooo excited because we’ve just booked a holiday to California! 🇺🇸

It’s been ages since I’ve left the country (aside from a few days in Scotland last summer) and I can’t wait for some heat and a change of scene. ☀️

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 8.8K Likes - How’s everyone? 

Here’s a diary extract from the last week. I’ve been a little quiet on here as I’ve been laid up in bed with some sort of flu 😷 it wasn’t the Rona (I’m fully vaccinated anyway) but still knocked me out. Thankfully Russ and my mum were around to take care of the kids. 

After being a bit concerned that Stella was on the small side (people keep commenting on how petite she is), she was weighed today and I’m really happy that she’s doing just fine. She’s not that into food so we’re taking it slow with weaning. 🍌

I often wonder if there’s more to my life than just my kids as since they’ve arrived, they’ve been the focus and dominant force. It’s oft-repeated but true that they are now the reason for everything I do, every choice I make. Everything from work to lifestyle, big decisions and small are (mostly) made to prioritise them. Obviously they’re the most important thing but sometimes I long for the time to really focus on something else. And not just for the hour after they go to bed. Idk this is turning into an essay now but just felt like sharing. 🌷

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 8.3K Likes - How is it nearly December?! Can’t believe we’re already discussing when to put up our Christmas tree. 🎄 

Trying to decide whether to allow Liam a chocolate advent calendar or go traditional. I know which I’d prefer 🍫 but he’s enough of a treat addict as it is. What are your thoughts?

Both Stella and I are really into my beautiful new bag from @pompomlondon (gifted). It’s the perfect size for all your essentials (& a little extra!) and you can mix and match the straps 💙

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 8.2K Likes - On a run, thinking about an earlier convo with Liam:

(frantically trying to finish a piece of work with an impending deadline before Stella wakes from her nap, and Liam interrupting every 30 seconds):

Liam: Mummy, I’m bored.
Me: Can you play with some of your new toys? There’s a whole bag of them there. 

*patters out, then back in again*

Liam: I don’t want to play with any of those toys. 
Me: Oh dude, please can you just give me five minutes? Then I promise we’ll play all afternoon.
Liam: Oh-kayyy. I’ll just go in there and wait. 
Me: Well don’t do that, why don’t you build me a tower or something?

*patters out, then back in again*

Me: Oh Liam, what is it now?
Liam: Mummy, my pretend husband’s name is Beef.

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 8K Likes - Feeling relatively peaceful, and lucky that Russ is around to help with the kids, allowing me to go for a run this morning. Something that would have once felt like a chore, is now a huge privilege to have the time to do. (Running with a pram doesn’t give quite the same sense of freedom, I have tried it, but Stella just gets frustrated at being cooped up nowadays!)

Grateful for the blue sky and a hit of endorphins today. And borrowing Russ’s @patagonia jacket, lightweight and warm against the 🥶

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 8K Likes - Had a wonderful few days in London recording an audiobook. It’s been a while since I’ve worked anywhere but from home, and while that has its advantages, actually going to a nice building and being around professionals was such a treat!

Even the sweaty morning tube commute felt like a luxury (especially after two nights of caring for a toddler with a stomach bug 😅)

There’s such pressure (externally and internally) for mothers to live up to some ‘perfect’ ideal - whether that pertains to career, looks, parenting, anything. If you’ve been following me a while, you’ll know I’m keen to steer clear of perfectionism, and focus on doing what’s best for me and my family, whatever that looks like. While I’ve loved having so much time at home with my little ones (mostly), I’m starting to feel ready for the next chapter, the one beyond 24/7 motherhood.

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 7.8K Likes - So there’s something I’ve debated sharing about on here for ages. But if openness and honesty can help just one person feel less alone, then it’s worth it, right? 🤷🏼‍♀️ (TW: It’s on the sensitive topic of disordered eating). 

From my teens until a few years ago, I had a really disordered relationship with food. It wasn’t something I needed medical help with or anything, but it dominated my mind and life for waaaay too long. 

After my first child was born, I finally became ready to confront it and read ‘Just Eat It’ by @laurathomasphd which totally changed everything. It’s been a work in progress, but I’ve had sustained and blissful relief from the mental obsession that came with the binge/restrict cycle I was trapped in and have felt genuinely neutral about eating and my body since adopting the Intuitive Eating approach. ☀️

Over the Christmas holidays, I found myself slipping back into old ways and acting out (feeling/being out of control, overeating until it hurt on the regular, obsession, generally being weird about it all).

Thankfully, I have enough self-compassion and desire to heal that I have recalibrated back into a more balanced, mentally peaceful state. Big middle finger to diets, it’s not about that, but returning to equilibrium and just getting on with my life and enjoying eating rather than being ruled by it. 

I wanted to share in case anyone else can relate and if so, point them lovingly towards the wonderful work of @intuitiveeatingldn as well as @diet.culture.rebel for really helpful professional guidance on Intuitive Eating and recovery ❤️‍🩹 from disordered eating. 

Please only take guidance on all things related to nutrition from qualified sources (doctors and registered dieticians/nutritionists) rather than ‘wellness influencers’ who’ll be extra noisy this time of year. 

As always, sending you love 💗

I know I’m getting my confidence and sense of self back when I get the urge to work on creative projects again- it feels good!

If your eye has been drawn to this beautiful bag, I don’t blame you. It’s from @tiggyandbo and holds anything and everything. It gives me a feeling of being dressed up and glam even when doing the nursery run in my PJ’s 😊

Are you an over thinker or are you more of a do-er ? What are your tips? X

Ps This beautiful mug is from @fenellasmithlondon (gifted) and I’d love to claim is full of lemon water but that would be a lie. ☕️

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 6.7K Likes - Didn’t break a sweat on this morning’s run because it’s sooo cold! ❄️ Frozen ears and fingers!

I’m not very good at running - not particularly fast, no amazing stamina. But I do it because it makes me feel better. I’ve never gone for a run and felt worse after…

…but I know it’s not for everyone. As a Pilates teacher, I always recommend people find a form of movement they enjoy, and do that. Forget what you think you ‘should’ do. 

What do you enjoy?

*after two minutes the elation fades and I’m racking my brains for the next idea !

I’m wearing some pieces from the beautiful SS collection by @powder_uk - the headband and kimono jacket, and sunnies. 💗 (gifted)

What’s your creative outlet? I love hearing from you all :)👇🏻

Today, nearly six years later, we went back with our two kids 💗

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 5.9K Likes - Sunday mode 🛌 

There’s so much emphasis on productivity and achieving that it’s easy to forget to slow down. Even though taking care of two small children is a full-time job in itself, I often feel under self-imposed pressure to ‘do more’. As the season changes, it’s a good time to slow down and prioritise rest wherever possible. Both mentally and physically. 

Cosy silky pyjamas from @powder_uk 🍂 (gifted).

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 5.9K Likes - That post-workout glow you get on the INSIDE is what I like! Melting the stress away through movement. 👑

I’ve just started uploading Pilates-inspired workouts to my YouTube channel. I’m still working on improving production quality 😅 but the classes are 🔥!

https://www.youtube.com/rachelhurdwoodpilates

You can expect low-impact, no-equipment mat-based movement. Enjoy!

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 5.7K Likes - After a looooong time of taking a dim view of my body, I finally made peace with it a few years ago. Now, two babies later, I’ve got the opportunity to work through whole new layers of self acceptance! (Yay 🎉😐)

Jokes aside, my focus now is on feeling well, mentally and physically. Anything that has the opposite effect has to go. 

What with your skin being the biggest organ in your body and all, it’s worth taking care of. I’m loving the new Women’s Balance Body Collection* from @nealsyardremedies. I might not be able to make it to a spa on the regular, but the aromatherapy scents are still so relaxing 💗

Rachel Hurd-Wood - 5.7K Likes - ☀️ ‘I just want to feel how they look’ - how I used to feel about anyone I saw, online or IRL, who seemed to have it together. 

🏝 Maybe they wore chic designer clothes, could contort themselves into spectacular yoga poses, claimed to live on smoothies and superfood salads. Whatever it was, I’d compare how I felt (a mess, chaotic, insecure, inadequate) to those I envied and end up feeling worse than I already did. Compare and despair.

🤷🏼‍♀️ In my experience, most people don’t actually know wtf they’re doing half the time, aren’t satisfied in all areas of life or feel emotionally stable, let alone that elusive idea of ‘happy’ (which I used to think meant elated, but actually can just mean calm).

💗  I’ve found it helps to focus on the things that are good in your own life, to live authentically, and nurture what’s important to you. 

Have you felt the same?
