Founder of Inspire Health & Well Being

Owner of The Yoga Barn

TKYM Vinyasa Yoga Instructor

Breathwork  and Meditation Teacher

I predominantly teach in my elegant boutique yoga studio, called The Yoga Barn, nestled in the picturesque Cotswold country side. On sunny days, we head outdoors in to my beautiful garden, complete with summer breeze-house.


I have been practicing yoga for myself for the past 25 years and used it to support and strengthen my once very weak lower spine, misaligned pelvis and to control my early bouts of depression.

 

I am also gluten, lactose and refined sugar free and have been for the past 8 years, since being diagnosed with a rare intestinal and bowel condition, that also affects my blood.

 

As a follower of all things natural, I chose to go down the route of natural healing, as opposed to suggested medicines and it has completely changed my life for the better, and to the astonishment of my medical professor.

 

Growing up, my life was very different to what it is today. I lived and loved the high life; where my feet barely touched the ground.

 

For almost 30 years, I worked in the Travel Industry; initially in retail travel and then moving to work for “The worlds favourite Airline” where I landed my dream job as Worldwide Cabin Crew. This new role completely enriched my life, taking me across the globe and immersing me in different cultures, cuisine, and a fascination of Eastern philosophy.

 

I was later recruited as a Global Brand Ambassador, in addition to my flying, but still taking me around the world, promoting a company that I loved, from celebrity film shoots, film festivals, US
TV shows, red carpet events and the pinnacle of my career, being invited on 2 Royal Tours with Her Majesty The Queen, and His Royal Highness, The Duke. We toured Australasia and the United States of America, where I was invited to The White House.

 

This was my life and I loved it!


But in 2019 The Corona Virus changed the world and in particular, the airline industry, when aircraft suddenly came to a holt and jobs were uncertain.
Through lockdown we had time to slow down and re-set, time to look within and re-evaluate life.

 

I realised that with all the changes that were happening, my flying career could be coming to an abrupt end. My career was my life and my dream since I was 14 years old and I certainly didn’t want to change my career to one that didn’t feed my passions and fill my heart.

 

So through lockdown I did some soul searching and started to look at other areas of my life that I loved, and what I discovered was ...


Nature,Well-being, Nutrition and Design


My question was.....How could I combine all these elements into one key role?


One morning I woke up and there it was, clear in my mind. I was to train as a yoga teacher, be my own boss and design and build my own studio, then create a website of my yoga offerings, nutrition suggestions and well-being ideas.


By using the tools I had learnt through my personal yoga practice and my ever growing knowledge of nutrition for healing, I began to connect fully with my inner self, becoming consciously aware of who I was and what my body needed in order to stay healthy and fully control my condition.


I am now 49 years old and never felt better. I am the healthiest, strongest and most flexible I have ever been and I put it down to my clean diet, positive mindset and daily yoga.


Since Covid 19, I fully understand the importance of looking after and nurturing our body, to create good health & well-being, and so I felt I needed to share my knowledge and to dedicate my life to helping others realise the power of nature and nurture.


I spent 7 months studying The Kaivalya Yoga Method, to become a fully qualified Vinyasa Yoga teacher and in April 2021 I set up INSPIRE HEALTH & WELL-BEING.


So now I help professional men and women, who seek to improve their general health and wellbeing through my holistic fusion of Vinyasa Yoga, chakra healing, breath work, Meditation and thoughtful nutritional ideas and recipes.


My powerful system not only creates physical strength and flexibility, it balances stress and anxiety, controls the various systems within the body, nurturing it from within, and improving overall physical, physiological and mental health.


This transformative method gives you a greater sense of well-being, leaving you uplifted, cleansed and in full control of your body and mind.
