My journey to mindfulness interventions began many years ago when I experienced burnout and illness from living in a constant state of fight or flight. I had been living this fast paced life with very little self-awareness for so long that it had become my normal. I also lost my father 12 years ago to cancer and this made me realise how precious time and life really is. I realised how so much life had already passed and I wasn’t really there, not fully present in the experiencing of it because I was stuck replaying the past or anxious and fearful of the future.

I decided to make a change from that point onwards and fell awake to my own life. I fully embraced who I was and really lived my own experiences as they were happening.
