Favourite pose..
Supta Badakonasana...Reclining Bound Angle Pose with bolster under spine, eye pillow, sandbag on my feet...mmmmm...that is bliss :)
Favourite prop...
bolster-there are so many ways we can use it!
What inspires me..
Letting go...opening up our hearts. Seeing and feeling students letting go, relaxing and calm after a class.
I love...
Letting go!
I fear...
Letting go... :)
Yoga is my full time passion...
Yes, it is...and my 'home', my heart center.

In healing, letting go of old patterns and creating your support system. Yoga, alternative and holistic therapies are great tools to bring healing in one's body, mind and spirit.
My words of encouragement to you-on and off the mat...
Find your peace in chaos. Cultivate and nourish balance in your life. 
Just when you think you can no longer do it, know that the 'shift' is just around the corner.
Peace

"The highest point of yesterday should be the lowest point of today".
