About the Author

Yoga has become my staple – the more I practice, the more the nourishing and sustaining effects permeate my everyday life.

There isn’t a particularly romantic story about my foray into Yoga. I remember an overriding feeling during my first class at the tender age of 16 that I wasn’t good enough or flexible enough to do Yoga. It wasn’t until many years later, after several ruptured discs, and a bundle of anxiety and body discomfort that I found a teacher who provided a safe and nurturing form of Yoga.

I was hooked. Instead of being a means to get my leg behind my head or suck on my big toe, Yoga made accessible a world of self-acceptance, self-care and curiosity. I began to notice that I was less anxious, scratchy and foggy, and I think it’s safe to say, a whole lot easier to be around.
