by Tracy Sadler Once you’ve done your 200 or 500 plus hours vinyasa, power, jivamukti or any other style yoga training is that it? Intimate knowledge and teaching skills gained and restored?!? Uhhhh not quite. That’s just the start, the beginning of a life long dedication, ‘addiction’, desire and passion to grow and evolve. To […]
I really feel like, saying you ‘don’t like yoga’ or yoga ‘isn’t for you’, is like saying food isn’t for you… there are SO many different styles and ways of practicing yoga, you just need to find what works for you! I am SO pleased that so many people, doctors, health professionals are recommending yoga […]
There’s a lot of myth-busting to be done around this question… and I get it, when I started yoga, I thought the same (check out my ‘Why I started yoga’ blog) So when I ask people what they think / thought yoga was here’s what I get… Isn’t yoga just… A stretch-class A waste of time For […]
Disease can be a very controversial topic and I do not claim to be any sort of medic, I am simply sharing what I have learnt through my own personal yoga journey and what I have found enlightening. I don’t understand why some people get horrible illnesses and others don’t, I am fascinated by how […]
I am not a nutritionist, I can only speak from my experience with my own battles of body weight and perfectionism.

This word has mystified me for YEARS. I have spent SO long trying to find energy throughout my life for myself that I have become obsessed with figuring out what it is and where to get it from! I can still hear myself saying, ‘yeah I would love to do all that stuff’ (socialising, business […]
I think there is a huge misunderstanding around spirituality – I have wonderful teachers in mind who I think of when I think ‘spiritual’ and those images usually involve burning sage, crystals, singing bowls and chanting. I like to understand how stuff actually works – maybe that’s the realist or cynic in me, or maybe […]
In the grand scheme of things, I am at the beginning of my yoga journey, I have met some incredible humans along the way who have much darker, more challenging journeys than I have. So I don’t claim to have all the answers and I know I have a lot more to learn. I just […]
I hesitantly stepped into my first yoga class at a time where I really felt like I had hit rock bottom. I was around 17 years old, I had an eating disorder and suffered with anorexia and depression. I had lost a sense of my basic human needs – I did not eat or drink […]
