Hi, I'm Augusta
I accept myself as a multifaceted human being. I have had a varied career, ranging from law to primary school teaching. It was in this last role, working with eleven-year-olds, I witnessed first-hand many issues that we face in the "battle of the should". We compare and judge ourselves constantly against others and often find ourselves lacking.
I noticed that this begins in the early years of school as some children begin to feel failure, for the first time if they haven't yet reached certain academic standards. We then continue to carry around this wounded inner child into our adult lives. This is having a huge impact on our mental health and I wanted to do something to help. So last year, I stopped teaching and set off on a year of training, using myself as a Guinea Pig.
What I discovered is a huge gift to children and adults alike.
Through the power of the breath and other somatic tools, my ideas about mindfulness and yoga, which I had been practising in the classroom, have now blossomed into workshops and sessions, which encourage people to believe in themselves, to trust their intuition and learn to know and love the person they really are. It is from this position that a healthy life can begin.
I offer to individuals and groups of adults or children alike sessions which will help you wake up and remember how lovable you really you are.
