瑜珈路上 Yoga Journey

“our mind is a garden, our thoughts are the seeds, you can grow flowers or you can grow weeds” – Ritu Ghatourey

成为瑜珈老师，是各种因缘使然。

因为瑜珈，结实了新的朋友，启发了新的学习，拜入瑜珈大师门下，更是感恩和惜缘。

瑜珈智慧，远超越强身健体或者瘦身塑形；瑜珈对我，甚至不仅是身心的连结。她好像一条天梯，可以连结到各种憧憬，通向无限潜能。而我最愿意连结到的，是快乐。通过瑜珈，传递正能量，启发快乐的绽放，on and off the mat。

A trained psychologist and well-being scientist, I’m fascinated by learning, practicing, and sharing the Eastern wisdom of yoga and Western science of happiness.  In my life-long yoga journey, I had the privilege to study with renowned teachers in alignment-based Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, iRest Yoga Nidra, and Therapeutic Yoga. Adopting an integrative approach to holistic health and well-being, I’m passionate about weaving the art and science of happiness into the cultivation of body, mind, and breath in my yoga and mindfulness teaching.  Planting modern psychology into traditional yogic practice, I hope to hold a space that inspires yogis to flourish on and off the mat and play a part in nourishing greater well-being in the wider community.
