I've been quiet online this summer, I've taken some much-needed time to soak up the sunshine, spend precious moments with friends and family, and enjoy being outdoors. 🌿☀️

Now it's time to refocus, look ahead, and start bringing some new plans to life.

Over the coming weeks and months, Journey to Inner Peace Yoga will be evolving with:
✨ A brand new booking system
✨ New yoga, Tai Chi and wellbeing classes
✨ New venues
✨ Virtual class options
✨ A fresh new website and an improved platform to keep you connected and up to date

I'm looking forward to share this next chapter with you and create even more opportunities to support your wellbeing, wherever you are.

Now... I'd better put my head down and get it all finished! 😊

Thank you for your continued support. 💚

It's a privilege to be part of this year's virtual CFRI Summer Retreat, supporting people living with cystic fibrosis and their families across the USA.

I'm really looking forward to sharing some of the Tai Chi and Chi Gong practices that have made such a positive difference to my own health and wellbeing
The skills I have learned through this art form has been invaluable to my physical health and mental health

Tai Chi and Chi Gong offer so many potential benefits, including improved balance, strength, relaxation, breath awareness, reduced stress, improved immune system , improve mindfulness and meditation skills and a greater sense of calm and wellbeing.

I'm really excited to share simple practices that participants can continue using long after the retreat.

Thank you to the Cystic Fibrosis Research Institute for the invitation. I can't wait to meet everyone online! 🙏☯️💜
