I got my start with yoga during the COVID-19 lock-down. Like most people forced inside and left with limited options for physical wellness, I turned to virtual yoga and my personal practice to get through the trying times.
In 2020, the same year as the lock-downs, my grief was compounded by a diangnosis my mother received for early-onset Alzheimer’s. I needed solutions fast to get through the tough times - and yoga was my answer.
Yoga has changed my entire outlook on life - I am worth the effort to live a healthy and fulfilling life!
