About Living Room Yoga.
Since an early age, I have been fascinated by the art of expression and the human psyche.
My yoga journey is a soul-calling.
A remembering and reconnecting to myself.
My yoga journey is a soul-calling. A remembering and reconnecting to myself. I have been practicing yoga for over 15 years and completed a 200H Vinyasa Flow Training with Teresa Murphy in Yoga Sacred Space in Wicklow in 2018/19, followed by a 100H Yin and Yoga Nidra Training with The Swara Academy in Thailand in 2019. Currently, I have undertaken a training in YogaSomatics with Ateeka.
Since an early age, I have been fascinated by the art of expression and the human psyche.
As a child, I developed interests in fashion, art, music and dance and I have always been interested in the arts and more recently, the healing arts.
The search for my true self has permeated my whole life. There was a search within myself for more depth and meaning beyond the physical and psychological. It was my own personal journey which led me to yoga. It was through my process of deep inner work, that yoga demanded my attention!
There is a beautiful term in yoga called Sadhaka - which means " truth seeker".
The Sadhana is a process of self-realisation: the inner path of yoga - the path of self-knowledge and self-transformation. I believe that yoga is a practice to connect to one’s own spirit and the Divine. An inner and outer connection, inviting darkness and light. My strong desire for truth, authenticity and inner freedom steers me through my life to this day.
From my work as a psychotherapist, I have helped people from all walks of life, accompanying them on their journey.
My work and training in this area underpins my yoga teaching and offers this duality with mind and body.
It was the arrival of the Covid pandemic in 2020, that made me confront myself in a very honest way.
I asked myself: “what do I want?”, “what am I passionate about?” and other existential questions!
It became quite clear that I was on the wrong path and there was a beckoning to commit to the path of yoga.
Needless to say, throughout my journey and life, there have been many tests and hurdles along the way and experiencing a “Dark Night of the Soul”. Yoga has helped with healing and integration. The path of self-discovery is not easy but deeply enriching.
My logo is two overlapping “O’s” which resembles union and connection. To one self, with others and beyond.
I am grateful to yoga as it has helped connect me back to myself, my being and to spirit. So, through my own journey, I want to share this magic with others.
