I was first introduced to the power of yoga for healing and anxiety-reduction in my teens and early twenties in Ireland. Then life and other priorities intruded; a new country, children, building a business, and ventures in small-scale organic farming. However, I never lost touch with my quiet quest for spiritual meaning, a deep connection with the natural world, whole body health, and inner calm.
About seven years ago, I began my deep-dive journey of understanding, healing and self-acceptance. In tandem with caring for bees on our organic Amber Bee farm, and eating plant-based food -- for health, the good of the environment, and all sentient beings -- I started to seriously pursue studies in various yoga and healing practices. Oxygen Hot Yoga, at Eagle Landing in Chilliwack, is where I have met some of the dearest yoginis and yogis to be in community with. They guided my first steps and it is my yoga home.
I am Yoga Alliance certified, and am qualified in: Teachers 200 YTT; Yoga Nidra; Restorative Yoga; Chair Yoga; Thai Massage, and Reiki (level 1). I studied Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and I am currently enrolled at the Buteyko Breathing Clinic in Galway, Ireland in the Certification Program.
