PEGGY CHANG, 33
Founder of cafes The Tiramisu Hero (which recently opened a new counter space at coworking space Found) and Butter My Buns.
Anxiety attacks led to Chang practising yoga more this year to help her “clear her head”.
“I want to be physically stronger. It makes me feel good about myself. Yoga also helps me to become mentally stronger. I’ve tried many different breathing techniques, but I found that having a peaceful mind is the most important. Yoga is a great place to start.”
This year, Chang also fought her fears of travelling alone and went on a solo yoga retreat to Phuket on her birthday in August. “It was a challenge for me, because I tend to worry about scenarios like falling sick when I am alone, but I wanted to put myself out there and do something I was not comfortable with. It was a good experience.”
