It all started when…
My professional background is in Fashion Marketing, where I have worked for retail brands such as Dundrum Town Centre, Arnotts & most recently Liberty London. This side of my life channels my inner girl boss drive working on exciting projects such as Fashion Weeks, Seasonal Campaigns and new product launches. While on weekends, I enjoy loosening the curls, kicking off the heels and teaching yoga. I like barefoot weekends either spent on a surfboard, or a yoga mat, where, I love surrounding myself in the outdoors with good friends . Until very recently, I always thought, I would have to choose between Fashion and Yoga and when I was unable to make that decision in 2017, Earth and Purpose was born. A creative space proving that fashion and spirituality can live in harmony. I am a 500 YTT and now looking to start Pregnancy Yoga Training this year something that I have become very passionate about.
Earth and Purpose Yoga wants to bring you fun and uplifting wellness events, where we gather together to breath, move and connect with a new group of people who share similar interests. I offer something for everyone, and wish to give you a new steadiness, a new perspective, and a new understanding to take with you - wherever you go. And I hope you'll come back soon.
Join me on this exciting journey of self style, self expression and self love.
For what it’s worth, it’s never too late to be what you want to be. I hope you live a life you are proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over”
F. Scott Fitzgerald
MY YOGA JOURNEY SO FAR
I have learnt yoga seems to find you when you need it the most. Five years ago, after Christmas, I signed up for an intro month with a friend, as sometimes going solo can be a little daunting especially for your first class. I quickly felt uplifted, positive and relaxed. I wasn’t sure what I was experiencing but instantly knew it made me feel better. It was at a time when I felt a little bit lost, slightly confused and looking for new direction.
I practiced yoga most mornings before work, either in a local studio in Clapham or in my bedroom. It became my morning ritual. Working in fashion in London, running weekly events and project managing large seasonal campaigns definitely has its stressful moments and tight deadlines. Love a deadline or learn to love!
However, I enjoyed it all, and soon realised it was all about balance in my life. Fortunately, Yoga has provided that for me. I was able to work 6/7 day weeks (sometimes) because I had my yoga practice. Those 60 minutes a day on the mat allowed me to stretch, breath, and connect with myself. It was like my secret set up for the day, some people like running, for some people it’s a double shot espresso, for me it is my favourite playlist and my coconut skinned yoga mat from Sri Lanka.
When adventure comes knocking ...
Last year, I moved to work and travel abroad at a beautiful Surf and Yoga Retreat called Sunshinestories. It is located along the south coast of Sri Lanka. It was a big move for me, like a leap into the unknown.
'Seek and you shall find' ... adventure it was! It was during my time there, that I studied yoga teaching and I loved it. This training was one of the most important and enjoyable courses I have done to date. I continue to practice and improve my yoga learning. I am involved in various off shoots of yoga practice especially, in the area of nutrition hence the monthly Yoga Brunch Club and sound healing with crystals. Currently, I am standing on a new path way and I would love to take you with me.
Now it is 2018, I am teaching yoga and working in wellness, Marketing Manager for Dublin's premiere well-being hub The elbowroom . What it means for me now, I am busy, I am curious to learn more and extremely excited to share the benefits of a modern yogic lifestyle with you.
