More Than a Practice
I first discovered yoga after a running injury. Someone suggested it would help me recover so I could get back to running. Curious by nature, I decided to give it a try.
To be honest, I didn’t love it at first. There are so many styles of yoga, and I often wondered whether I was doing the poses correctly. But something kept drawing me back.
Little by little, my appreciation for the practice grew. I realised that yoga wasn’t just about movement or flexibility—it was about bringing the mind, body, breath, and soul into harmony.
Over the years, my practice has evolved alongside me. Some days it challenges me, other days it reminds me to slow down and listen. It has become a quiet practice of returning to myself, one breath at a time.
A Journey Beyond the Mat
Of all the forms of movement I’ve tried, yoga is the one that stayed with me. Not because it’s the easiest, but because every time I return to the mat, it teaches me something new.
Along the way, I’ve also discovered books and teachers who have deepened my appreciation for the practice. One that has stayed with me is On Yoga: The Architecture of Peace by Michael O’Neill. Following a serious car accident, Michael embarked on a healing journey that led him to photograph some of the world’s most influential yoga teachers. Through breathtaking photographs and personal stories, the book reminds us that yoga isn’t about perfecting a posture—it’s about embracing a lifelong practice of growth, presence, and self-discovery.
Yoga has become much more than a personal practice. Alongside my career, it has given me the opportunity to complete my teacher training, teach while travelling, support charitable initiatives, and connect with an incredible community of people around the world.
What began as simple curiosity became another way to learn, create, give back, and share something that has brought so much joy into my own life.
