Ad campaign
After a couple of very nasty experiences on the Underground, including one where a man tried to grab me, I dropped out of my business management course in London and went back to my hometown in Wales.
I began experiencing panic attacks whenever I had to leave the house, found it easier to lock myself away amid familiar surroundings. I was 19 and felt completely alone, suffocated and trapped. I’d ask Why me?, and throw myself a massive pity party.
Then I started seeing the same ad for a yoga class. I saw it on Facebook, on a doctor’s noticeboard, even overheard other people talking about it. Could this be a sign? It took four more months for me to pluck up the courage to take a taster class, and a friend came with me for moral support. It was hard to step onto the mat in a room full of strangers, but that one act was a catalyst for change.
I started practising yoga regularly, and attracted spiritual healers who were able to open my mind to new possibilities. Before long, I returned to university to complete my studies. Seven years on, I’m a trained yoga teacher and also work as Reiki and Theta healer.
I’m helping others to beat the negative thought patterns that once threatened to destroy me.
