Lift the Weight ☯︎ Lighten the Emotional Load
This is a space for people who want to feel good in the body they live in — inside and out.
Through strength, movement, and compassionate self-talk, we explore ways to build a strong body while creating a kinder relationship with yourself.
Here we explore strength without self-punishment, discovering ways to grow stronger that respect the nervous system — where movement becomes medicine and the body is supported to build strength with care.
Through a blend of mat-based Pilates, strength training, and supportive self-talk, this space helps you rebuild confidence in your body step by step.
Some days that might look like gentle movement on the mat.
Some days it might look like lifting weights, running, or building endurance.
Both belong here.
Because strength and softness are not opposites.
They are partners.
Effort and release.
Lifting weight and laying it down.
A strong body and a compassionate mind.
Here, movement flows with your rhythm, strength feels supportive, and the relationship you have with yourself becomes a true love story.
Together we are creating a ripple of wellness that travels across oceans 🩵

Step into a moment of coastal calm, with a private wellness class held at SeaSpace with Gina Louise.
Whether you are staying for a long weekend or enjoying a steady coastal week, these bespoke private sessions are designed to meet you exactly where you are — physically, emotionally, and energetically.
Each experience is shaped around our HERVANA™ method, where movement becomes medicine — a way to reconnect with your body while the rhythm of the ocean gently slows everything down.
The Love Notes Workbook is a soft, accessible resource designed to support emotional ease, self-compassion, and inner confidence. Through reflective prompts, calming practices, and nurturing words, this workbook offers small moments you can return to whenever you need to feel held, grounded, and reminded that you are already enough.
Nourishment should be an act of care, not control. Our Nourishment Guide supports hormonal balance, energy, and emotional ease through simple, soul-supportive meal ideas designed for changing bodies and fluctuating rhythms. This is not a plan or set of rules — but an invitation to nourish yourself in a way that feels comforting, realistic, and deeply supportive to your whole system.
If you’d like to know a little more about how this space came to be, grab yourself a cuppa, get comfortable, and take a look at our story.
A State of Mind Studio was created by Gina Louise, shaped by real life, changing seasons, and a longing for wellness that feels supportive and compassionate. This page shares how the studio grew from a personal mission into a supportive sanctuary — and why everything here is offered with care, compassion, and a belief that you deserve to feel loved, cherished, and confident from the inside out.

“I realised how I’d been with myself until Gina encouraged me to start each morning with one gentle sentence of kindness. Now I sit on the edge of my bed, and say something soft to myself before the day begins. It sounds simple, but it has changed everything.
It has been a big part of my healing.
Her classes and her words have become a big part of my life — a place where I feel safe again.”
“I told Gina that when overwhelm hits me, my whole body seems to lock up. She taught me a tiny finger-anchoring technique — so simple, but so powerful — and now it’s the first thing I do when my emotions start to rise.
I breathe the way she showed me, and within moments I can feel myself soften again.
Gina doesn’t just teach movement; she teaches you how to return to yourself. Her classes are the favourite part of my week.”
"I was terrified to step on a mat — I was convinced I wasn’t fit enough, flexible enough, or ‘good’ enough, I even had to phone my daughters the night before for encouragement to turn up to my first fitness class.
But with Gina, I felt welcomed, held, and completely myself.
Now I walk into any of her classes knowing that I belong.
She has created a place where women feel good enough… I am grateful to be part of it all.”
