I love rainbows, colour, outdoors, animals, the unique, the different. Yoga has always been something I enjoyed, and when I have difficulties it helps me find the answers I am searching for. Of course like anyone I do require a need for quiet from time to time to reflect and meditate as I have a desire to understand and learn as much as I can about people, and life. HOWEVER I am a people person without a doubt. I absolutely adore laughing, it is helpful for all ailments.  I truly believe that your perspective can make or break your day.  Some of my favorite quotes include: The journey is the reward -Chinese Proverb Tension is who you think you should be, relaxation is who you are -Chinese Proverb Every morning when you wake up we have 24 brand new hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way that these 24 hours will bring peace, joy and happiness to ourselves and  others. -Thich Nhat Hanh The reason I decided to become a yoga teacher: I was working in a high stress job and came into a rough patch in life, and I had significantly slowed down in my personal practice. I started to take my practice inward, developing a more meditative practice. This has been something that I am so grateful for. I realised that my love of yoga and meditation was growing and I wanted to dive in deeper to help with PTSD that I had been dealing with. When I went away to Costa Rica for my YTT it was an eye opening experience, realising that yoga is more than just postures and a physical practice, it was a way of life. I wanted to be able to bring the skills I had learned in my YTT back to where I am from and hopefully one day help someone else the way yoga has helped me.
