About this episode

On today’s episode I share with you my yoga journey and lessons. I’ll be taking you back to the time where I first discovered yoga and how this practice sparked my inner light and changed my life forever.The life I lived before yoga and the life I began living after yoga are drastically different in the best of ways. Yoga woke me up from my slumber. I was just living life without questioning anything, without much presence, always living in the past or in the future. I was someone who silently dealt with anxiety and depression for a big chunk of my teenage years and young adult years. Yoga has most importantly taught me to communicate sacredness, it gave me the tools to build it, to build myself from the root to the crown, it’s given me my voice back to share it and today it’s given me the opportunity to spread it to you all. For those of you who are familiar with the Bhagavad Gita, this saying could not be more true: “Yoga is the journey of the Self, to the Self, through the Self.”  May you all find the teachers that you are looking for and may you thank your teachers past, present, and those yet to come in the future in whatever shape or form they may take. The most important teacher is yourself. The light in me, the divinity in me, recognises the light and divinity within you. Namaste.
