Five years ago I answered a call to a life in tune with the rhythms of my soul. After many years fascinated by yoga, meditation, eastern spirituality and plant medicine I followed my heart and made these interests my life, moving to Thailand to immerse myself in learning and sharing feminine embodiment practices. I’ve been living on Koh Phangan for the last three years, immersed in self-inquiry, nature, ceremony, and sadhana. For the last 18 months, I have been teaching daily classes of Vinyasa, Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra and meditation at Orion Healing Centre to practitioners from all over the world. My waking-up was catalysed by a deep unrest and disconnection from my body. From a young age, I had the feeling that the way modern life is lived – goal-oriented, isolated, stressed and separate from nature – was not healthy. It took me a long time to understand this feeling was true and from then on I learned to listen to my intuition. Falling in love with life as a woman transformed me and I know it can transform other women who are crying out to be heard, seen and to feel their power in its fullness. Since creating my weekly Yoga for Women workshop, I have borne witness to the deep need for women to connect to the power within them, rooted in their yonis, and to learn practices that help them let go of experiencing everything through the mind and drop into the messages of their body. My passion is to share ancient practices in a way that is accessible to the modern woman. I bring my studies of Yoga, Chinese Medicine, Qi Gong, Ayurveda and Bioenergetics to this retreat with a lot of love and a no-bullshit attitude. It is my heart’s calling to share the practices which made me more orgasmic, healthier and more my self with others and to be reacquainting women with their deepest inner-knowing and energetic sovereignty.
