Yoga isn’t just a practice for me; it’s a way of life—a journey toward harmony with yourself, others, and the natural world. Guided by my favorite mantra, Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu (“May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may my thoughts, words, and actions contribute to this happiness and freedom”), I approach every class, retreat, and interaction with the intention to foster connection, inner peace, and a sense of purpose.

Ten years ago, I found myself in a dark place, feeling disconnected and overwhelmed. My journey toward healing began with a simple realization: life is meant to be lived fully, with joy and purpose.

I’ve always been curious about how the mind works. Studying to become a psychological coach was eye-opening, teaching me how to heal and grow. Now, I use what I’ve learned to help others trust their journey and themselves.
COACHING

When my mom moved to Portugal and my flat was canceled, everything aligned. I sold almost everything, packed two bags, and moved with my dog to start a new chapter.
