My Approach 

When it comes to cultivating a regular yoga practice, I love how small acts, in the long term,  can create significant change. The phrase “You won’t always be motivated, that’s why you have to learn to be disciplined” really resonates with me, serving as encouragement to get on the mat and change how I feel. 

 I'm absolutely fascinated by the altered states we can take ourselves to, where we can have autonomy over our own body. Knowing that posture, breath and stretch can change how we feel, that feelings are in the body, not in the mind, can give us autonomy over our own state of being. I believe your nervous system is adaptive, it can change. By having a still mind, we are less likely to act out or become triggered. Anxiety, fear and anger are states of contraction within the body, as this is where our feelings are. In my classes, we focus on moving these feelings out of the body, stilling the mind and reclaiming our power. This is where the transformation lies!

For 25 years I have immersed myself in yoga. Firstly, with Iyengar yoga, I then trained in Hatha yoga before completing the Kundalini Global teacher training.  I can wholeheartedly say this was one of the most beneficial things I have done in my life. 

I’m fascinated by the anxious and addictive mind; the way we use mobile phones, social media etc. and I host workshops centred around addiction and compulsive behaviours. 

Change is possible. Join me for a class and experience it for yourself.

My Journey 

After years in and out of sobriety, my journey really began after completing Carolyn Cowan’s Mastering The Addictive Personality in 2018. This transformative experience gave me the courage to put down my vices and really face what I was experiencing. I embraced the challenge not to numb, not to avoid, but to stay conscious of everything I was feeling, and to choose change using my own intention, body and breath.

After 5 years sober, I now fully understand how deeply rooted anxiety and addiction have been throughout my life. I was constantly looking for something outside myself to soothe or disassociate. I now realise how exhausting it was to live in this place. These extraordinary techniques have helped me to find my purpose, turning my poison into gold. What a gift it is to finally have the tools to bring myself out of these destructive states and now to be able to share them with others.

Yoga and breathwork have been deeply healing and it is an honour to now be able to share these practices.
