Welcome. I am so glad you are here.

My vision is to create a Yoga & Well-being platform that is accessible to every body and in particular those living with cancer and other long term health conditions. I love to offer kind, caring, trauma informed, mental health aware, compassionate practices which enhance wellbeing and ease; a space  where you can come to take time out for YOU. 

Many of the modern diseases and afflictions such as cancer can be seen as diseases of disembodiment.  And its only natural to disengage with the body when we feel it has let us down. The practices I offer are those which have helped me on my cancer journey and support ways to enter back into a relationship with your body, using breath, movement, mindfulness and meditation. 

The monthly live Embodied Yoga for Cancer classes are for anyone living with or recovering from cancer or other long term health conditions. These classes have a focus on increasing lymphatic flow, necessary for our wellbeing and increasing our immune functioning. These classes are suitable for anyone wanting to boost their immune system. 

All classes take a trauma informed approach which simply means offering choice in movement - based on what you want to do in YOUR body in any particular moment, rather than being told what to do. It can feel very refreshing to move as YOU want.  

These offerings are suitable for all, but particularly useful for those who:

- are living with or recovering from cancer or other long term health conditions

• are living with the impact of stress and being busy

• are caring for others - either informally as a parent, child of an elderly or ailing parent or more formerly as a therapist, nurse, social worker, GP - and need some self-care tools and practices

• living with chronic pain/chronic fatigue/fibromyalgia/anxiety /PTSD 

Benefits of these practices include

- helping with cancer and  chemo fatigue 

• Calming your nervous system

• Enhancing sleep 

• Reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression (also known as diseases of “disembodiment")

• Increasing overall well-being and resilience

• Filling your cup so you can care more for others 

• Reducing inflammation and pain 

• increasing mobility

• Increasing the ability to self-regulate and respond rather than react to the world

• Increase interoception (the ability to sense back into our body’s signals

If you have a membership to the Online Sanctuary, watch the introductory videos and learn to take a baseline of how you are and choose your practices accordingly. Sometimes we need to move to look after ourselves, and at other times we need to be still. Both are offered here.  

Join the uploaded classes and do them in your own time, in the safety of your own space.  

And most of all enjoy.
