Author: yogigems

I’ve been teaching Kundalini and Hatha yoga (qualified as a RYT500/Level 2) since 2009. I was born in Iran, grew up in Zimbabwe, and have since lived in South Africa, Japan, France, India and London (where I am now). So I’ve had lots of different addresses around the world, but I increasingly find that yoga is where I feel most at home. I’ve also completed lots of training certifications in health and wellness, from Reiki to Theta Healing to Angel therapy to Ayurveda, but my best teacher has consistently been… yes, yoga. I’m a little bit in love with yoga. It’s through this simple practice that I’ve found a way to hush those eternally repetitive (and unhelpful) chatterings in my mind, and to find a portable corner of sweet stillness in this rollicking roller coaster that is life. So I started this website to help you find that same sweet stillness too. If we all know how to find it, there will be much more sweetness and stillness in the world. And maybe we’ll all be a bit kinder, a bit calmer and a bit happier. - See more at: http://www.yogigems.com/gemma-bliss/#sthash.6m8G8rsy.dpuf
