Hi, I’m Malinda the founder of Deep Within Yoga. With a decade of personal practice in Vipassana meditation and a 200-hour Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training, I am here to offer a quiet and supportive space to help people slow down, move mindfully, and reconnect with themselves.

I travel across Sydney for private and group sessions, welcoming all levels. 💫

Please get in touch if you have any questions.

I know this energy that I am feeling today will pass. There is fear of the uncertainty, the unknown of what my tomorrow will hold.
My current thoughts have been whether you are rich or poor, death will come to us all.
So today, I woke up thinking that if every day the sun will rise - that is a gift.
Then this mind, this body, this breath is also a gift.. I am a ok! 👌

“Patience and timing… everything comes when it must come. A life cannot be rushed, cannot be worked on a schedule as so many people want it to be. We must accept what comes to us at a given time and not ask for more. But life is endless so we never die; we were never really born. We just passed through different phrases. There is no end. Humans have many dimensions. But time is not as we see time, but rather in lessons that are learnt.” - Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian L Weiss 1988

If I live to 100 I’m 35% of the way there.
If I live to 70 I’m 50% of the way there.
If I live to 50 I’m 70% of the way there.
If I live till tomorrow then I’m pretty much there!

We don’t know how far we will go in this life-time so enjoy every bit of the way.

This one goes straight into the gratitude memory bank. Thank you, Grow N Flow Yoga Studio in Carlton for inviting me to lead this event. Despite the fresh and brisky start to the morning today, we had a great turnout. The sky was clear, the sunrise was spectacular, and I’m feeling truly blessed for the shared experience and connection.
Thank you! ☺️

The phrase “Goddess of Wealth” came up in conversation today - oh so beautiful!
I wish to be her and live a life full of abundance.

It takes a lot of courage to face your own demons, to realise that we are not who we think we are, and to be challenged by the unfamiliar. 🏋🏻‍♀️

I’ve heard - Malinda, you are so inspiring but I could never do what you have done.
But truth is, I have bloody faced a lot and you can do.

I am just like you.
No more, no less.
Gosh… I am just like you.

Do you want change? - that is the real question.
I understand that not everyone is ready to confront their demons or to admit that there is something wrong.

It’s easy to stay up late when you know you need to rest.
It’s easy to eat more chocolate even when you know you’ve probably had enough.
It’s easy to have another drink because, hey when will we see each other again?
It’s easy to stay in bed, on a cold ass winters morning.

The easy option is not always the best one.
They say ignorance is bliss.
If only you knew…
You might then choose differently.

Yes, I may be brave but I’m also chicken s**t.
I only recently overcame my irrational fear of the dark and am still terrified of swimming with fish.

I am just like you.
If only you knew…

“Practising mindfulness doesn’t reward you after death, however it will stop rebirth. It will stop you coming back to this realm of suffering.”🧘🏻‍♀️

At my last meditation retreat, I shared with a fellow Vipassana meditator that I was so scared to go deeper. Already I had felt the whole experience was so profound, it was feeling like the more I gained insight into my internal world - the more I connected with a deeper truth, the more I was feeling quiet isolated in this outside world or should I say the reality I have grown up believing in.

She replied, “If we were using a knife I would be scared too, but we are using our minds. Don’t be afraid to go deeper, you will always come back.”

A note to self, and my love message for you today: ~
Don’t be afraid. 💌

I had a dream that my baby boy was lying comfortably on my belly, and I felt really content. First things first, I don’t have any kids and have no desire to be a mum although I love children. ChatGPT is saying that it could be symbolic and that maybe my subconscious is connecting with that nurturing or mother-like energy on an emotional or spiritual level.

Maybe my heart chakra is opening up, letting more love and compassion flow inwards. If that’s what it is, I’ll take it! 🫀

I have to say, lately I’ve been feeling like I’m entering a new chapter where I feel more comfortable connecting with others. I’m usually pretty introverted, but all the recent social gatherings have been so wholesome. 🥰

I thought I was king s**t at 18 and at my prime at 21. But as the years go by and I grow older, I’ve come to realise, I don’t know anything at all. And honestly, that’s such a relief. 💡

I don’t have to know it all, it’s not even possible.
I’m not perfect.
I make mistakes.
I follow my heart.
I take leaps, always hoping for the best. 🤞
I fail sometimes, and it really hurts.

I’ve spent so much of my life putting pressure on myself to be this ‘good girl’. But I’m done with that.

As someone who struggles with unrelenting standards and perfectionism, I’m learning to observe my highly critical mind. A vicious cycle it goes in, until I allow myself to let it go.

I’m no angel. I’m just human.
And that is enough. 🙌

I am happy I have this photo to remind me of how much tension I had stored in my body then. Before my yoga training I would say I was pretty fit and healthy. I wasn’t that flexible but how important was flexibility anyway.

Since becoming a yoga teacher and practicing mindfulness consistently, I’ve felt my body open up in ways I never imagined. My heart is learning to trust and release fear. My shoulders are softening, my chest expands with deeper breaths, and my hamstrings finally allow me to touch my toes. My hips, inner thighs, back, and core—everything is shifting, not just physically but emotionally.

The connection between mind, body, and breath continues to amaze me. As Dr. Gabor Maté says, it’s all about “mind-body unity” and reconnecting with our authenticity. We were always meant to be strong, healthy, and whole yet our conditioned state pulls us away from our natural essence.
The journey back home to ourselves starts with awareness. 💫
