My Yoga Journey
I started practising yoga 5 years ago as a means to distract myself from
the emotional pain I was feeling at the time. I had two goals - one was
to create a new routine in my life, and the other was to be able to
plant my heels onto the mat in downward dog.
I did not expect to meet amazing teachers who supported, inspired and
encouraged me throughout my yoga journey. Over the years, I have been
able to uncover inner and physical strength I didn’t even know I had or
could have. I have also come to appreciate the practice of leaning into
discomfort and fear.
I love practising yoga is because you get to experience multiple
practices within each practice, such as, self-compassion, patience, and
the art of surrendering.
