yoga practice
The grounding practice of yoga improves focus and brings us to a state of connection with the self. The mind is calmer allowing us to become more aware of our inner thoughts, the leads to reflection and meditation. We balance and practice self care.
“We do not learn from experience. We learn from reflection on experience. Reliving of an experience leads to making connections between information and feelings produced by the experience.”
– John Dewey, 1933
about me
I have been practicing yoga for 28 years. I discovered Hatha yoga in my twenties and recognized the grounding benefits of mindfulness and breathwork during my years as an Art student. After college, I travelled to India, attended teachings by the Dalai Lama, and volunteered at Mother Teresa’s mission. My interest in yoga and spirituality has been a constant presence in my life. My career has been in the caregiving field, working with elderly people and children. I taught yoga and mindfulness to adults and children for 6 years before deciding to focus on adults.
I was born in England near the Peak District and have a love of travel and nature. I travelled to Africa in my late twenties and met my Canadian husband in Kenya. In Toronto, I discovered Kundalini yoga and philosophy. My love of the Canadian outdoors continues to grow, as I enjoy kayaking, portaging, and camping. I have two boys who are now adults; watching them grow has been a privilege and continues to inspire me.
