I have felt very privileged to offer a trauma-informed yoga series over the last few terms, working with Yoga on the Inside and The Yellow Gate. The feedback from participants about the positive benefits they have experienced has been so heartening.

About ten years ago or so, I felt so alone in my despair about the state of the world, environmental degradation, consumerism and waste, disconnection, the future that young generations would be facing, and the suffering of non-human life. And then I discovered the teachings of Joanna Macy, in particular The Work That Reconnects, which really saved me at a very low time. Not everyone is familiar with her work, but those who know, I know you get it. She has been such an inspirational root teacher of active hope, love for the world, sacred activism, deep ecology, reconnecting with ourselves and community, and how to live with presence in this broken world. Her 96 years on this planet have had such an impact on so many around the world, and her legacy will continue. We need her teachings as much as ever. RIP 💚

About Sophie and Samastah

Welcome! I'm Sophie, the yoga instructor and nature lover behind Samastah: Yoga, Sound, Connection. I'm based in Aldinga and so you will find me each summer with the sand and the waves teaching yoga on the beach. I also love to offer retreats in South Australia with a strong connection to nature. Yoga has been a part of my life since I was a child. Over the last ten years I've studied and taught hatha, yin and restorative yoga, sound therapy and meditation. I also enjoy working with young people and families, teaching courses in infant massage and kids yoga and mindfulness. My background is in adult education, teaching English language, literacy and numeracy but these days I have a strong commitment to environmental advocacy and activism and strengthening community. As a member of The Wild South I help facilitate community gatherings and workshops such as Waves of Peace and Clothes Swap for Climate. The ocean is my happy place and I volunteer as a Coastal Ambassador and a snorkel guide with Experiencing Marine Sanctuaries. I've also had the opportunity to learn how to guide forest bathing sessions to encourage a conscious immersion in nature. In my spare time I stay active and love basket weaving, gardening and learning about permaculture. I do my best to live a simple, healthy and mindful life with my two kids. I love sharing the wisdom and benefits of yoga and nature connection. We all need to give priority to our wellbeing in the body and the mind, find emotional contentment and connect within ourselves and with others for a meaningful life. I would love to connect with you if any of my offerings of yoga, sound or connection call to you. Please feel free to get in touch with any further questions.

‘Samastah’ comes from my favourite Sanskrit mantra Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu, which translates broadly as ‘May all beings everywhere be happy and free’. ‘Samastah’ means ‘all beings living in this location’, reminding us that we are interconnected to all life on this planet. This chant expands our awareness from focusing just on the self or the tribe, to remembering that we are all one, and we can radiate outwards our love and compassion to all life around us. Sophie ♥️
