She began exploring meditation and yoga nearly 20 years ago and over the years it has become an essential part of her life journey. Feeling stressed and off-course in 2011 she bowed out of the corporate world to explore her creativity and healing modalities ranging from transpersonal therapy to shamanic plant medicine. Jessica's practice seeks to balance the integrity of the Yin (Feminine) and Yang (Masculine) natures within us. In order to nurture more balance in the Yang environment of modern society; her focus is on the more receptive, nurturing and passive Yin aspect. The Yin qualities of her practices create deeper relaxation allowing the body to naturally restore itself and enable feelings of resistance to be released as we surrender to the teachings of the breath.Her approach cultivates an awareness of the formless; the breath, the energy channels and the fluctuations of the mind and emotions to restore balance and presence while gently guiding our bodies and minds to release the build up of tension in the body-mind.♦ QualificationsOsho Meditation FacilitatorKundalini Yoga Teacher KRI Certified Level 1 (200hrs)Initiate 13th Rite of the Munay-KiHatha Yoga Teacher Training (200hrs)Restorative Yoga (30hrs)Yin Yoga (100hrs) With Yin Yoga Reiki Level 1 - 3Lo Ban Pai Practioner
