Welcome to my Teacher Profile. Allow me to introduce myself to this community; For me personal development has a big priority in my life. I see it as an opportunity to practice self-care. Life has been hectic, chaotic and emotionally challenging. It has also been full, exciting, stimulating and energizing. It has thrown a lot at me in terms of change and yet I’ve coped. And I have friends, family yoga and meditation to thank for that. I do not think I’d be where I am today in terms of resilience if I didn’t have my daily practice. It is fundamental to making sure I remain balanced, or return to balance, when life is busy. It gives me a chance to reflect on and process my decisions so I can continue to make better ones. It has shown me compassion for others and for myself, which has proved immensely important during the COVID pandemic. After I graduated my first yoga teacher training I started teaching pretty much as soon as I could to build my confidence and within a few months, some lovely yoga teachers offered me support and gave me classes to take over. I feel very fortunate to have such a supportive network around me. Many thanks.
