“Don’t underestimate how small actions you take every day to honour yourself contribute to opening up new ways of being for all.”
—Bethany Webster
My spiritual journey began when I was very young, and as a result of this I always felt a strong awareness that there is something far more complex and magical than what we can simply see in the physical reality around us.
My yoga practice began in 1999 .. I was 22 and had just completed my degree at university and by chance discovered Iyengar Yoga. This first yoga teacher of mine was instrumental in changing my life and was my first introduction to mindfulness and the concept of non-attachment to our thoughts. This was the beginning of my journey as I went on to explore many other yoga disciplines over the next 20 years: Hatha, Ashtanga, Budokon inspired Vinyasa, the Baptiste method, Yin and, perhaps most instrumentally, Kundalini.
In 2014 life, and my perspective of it, changed completely when I gave birth to my son. Serendipity led me to another wonderful yoga teacher who inspired me to pick up my mat far more regularly than I had before - and with a different intention, which was to heal: physically, emotionally, spiritually & mentally. I went on to formally train as a yoga teacher in 2017 and completed my RYS Alliance-recognised 200 hour Power Vinyasa Yoga Teacher at a Baptiste Yoga Affiliate Centre.
After it being in my sphere of consciousness for many years, in 2017 I also began my journey with Reiki, and in 2020 became a Reiki Master Practitioner. This work humbles me and the power of energy healing never ceases to amaze me. Helping others is, to me, one of the greatest endeavours and to be able to share these teachings and train others in Reiki is a truly wonderful gift that I am so grateful for.
As I write in now in 2024 I am beginning to offer Cacao Ceremonies to share this beautiful heart opening plant medicine in sacred circles alongside either Breathwork, Yoga or Sound baths. I am also training in the very powerful transformative powerful holistic healing technique EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). This powerful method is based on the ancient principles of Chinese Acupressure and modern psychology. I look forward to sharing more with you when I have completed my training and for any more information please do not hesitate to contact me :)
“When you come back to your body, you come back to the clearest guidance system you have. When you give yourself the amazing gift of more time to really listen, you’ll hear what the body wants you to know. If you take the time to check in with your body on a regular basis, you won’t have to face a more intense signal from it when it needs your attention.”
