5 years ago, I quit my job in teaching.
We were in the throes of Covid, my husband had just been given a cancer diagnosis and as a result, I couldn’t go back into schools in the near future.
I decided to use my time to do something that I have always loved and just see where it takes me. I re-trained as a Yoga teacher and it felt very much like leaping into the unknown.
Once I qualified, like many before me, I realised that I needed to also understand how to run a business. This was another learning curve.
I struck out on my own, finding cover work, running private classes and slowly building my own network
Over time, I joined organisations and studios that resonated with my own ethos like .yoga.uk & this is truly where I thrive.
But somewhere inside of me, I knew my journey was not over.
I further trained in Trauma-Informed Yoga & learnt so much about myself in the process. I learnt what it means to somatically process things that have affected us in the past.
This is where my journey into healing & therapy truly began.
I became aware that I was slowly approaching what felt like another version of my true calling.
And so I’ve begun another journey this year. Again, leaping into the unknown.
Alongside my Yoga classes, I am pursuing a Masters in Psychotherapy & Counselling. I hope to become an Integrative Psychotherapist in a few years time🥰
Juggling part time school and work on top of family stuff has meant less presence here unfortunately but I’m doing my best👊🏽
My journey into Therapy will also mean a bit of shuffling on my social pages.🙏🏽 Expect a mix of psycho-education and yoga stuff. How does that sound?
