You’re busy. You don’t have time for anything else. But you’re tired… and stressed… and anxious. There’s no quick fix but I can show you restorative habits for your mind, body and essence. Through my own experience of mental health, I am inspired to share what’s been my soothing tonic.
Despite what social media depicts, slow living isn’t a secluded woodland cabin, hens roaming free or living off homegrown produce. To slowly live is to experience what life looks and feels like with intention and thoughtfulness at the core; living and loving life in tune with our emotions, values and needs while moving away from the ideas of power, pressure and perfection.

Fancy some fun with a healthy side order of calm? My yoga parties in and around Llangollen are ideal for birthday parties, hen-dos and other special occasions.
