I love stories and while I'm not the best story writer as it's national tell a fairy tale day today I thought I'd have some fun and write my own fairy tale.
Why not have a go yourself, it was fun. Let me know in the comments below if you do 😋
Script:
Once upon a time, beneath wide English skies, there lived a little girl with two worlds in her heart.
Her mother carried the soft green hills of England in her voice.
Her father carried the warmth and colour of India in his stories.
She grew up with cups of tea and the scent of spices,
with rainy afternoons and sun-soaked memories of faraway lands.
Though she lived in England, a part of her spirit always wandered east.
And whenever she visited India, something in her stirred —
a quiet pull she didn’t yet have words for,
as if a thread had been gently tugged from somewhere deep inside.
As the little girl grew, so did the quiet whisper within her.
A whisper that said, there is more of you to discover.
So she began to explore.
She stepped into heated rooms where the air shimmered.
She stood steady in careful, precise postures.
She moved and breathed and tried again.
Hot yoga.
Iyengar.
Ashtanga.
Restorative.
The years passed.
The whisper grew steadier.
And then, one day, she found something that felt like destiny —
Yoga Teacher Training.
It was not a castle or a crown that she found there,
but something far more powerful.
She found her prince.
Not a person —
but a practice.
Something she could return to.
Something that asked her to be brave.
Something that reminded her who she was.
The little girl who once held two worlds in her heart
had finally found the thread that wove them together.
And from that day on, she didn’t just practise yoga —
she shared it.
And she lived happily ever after.
