About Me
I am a a fully certified to teach yoga to adults, teens and children. As a primary school teacher I saw the vast range of benefits yoga can have on children and as a result I set up 'The Wonder Tree' to concentrate on teaching yoga and mindfulness to as many children as I could. Now The Wonder Tree also provides adult yoga sessions to parents, school staff, corporates and anyone who would like to experience the benefits for themselves. No matter what your age, yoga helps you to discover the wonders that lie within. It is a healthy and powerful way of developing not only your physical fitness, but also your mental fitness.

Such a fantastic class to teach at All Saints!

Year 2 today enjoying yoga with a winter theme - they practised breathing with tiny snowballs and went sledging all in the school hall.
All classes get to take part in yoga and forest school as part of our broad curriculum.
Thank you to Mrs Thompson from The Wonder Tree

I loved the warmth and comfort from the arrival of the Spring sunshine this week. It was so special to run two of my childrens yoga sessions outside. Such a great way to exercise and teach mindfulness. Being outside we could engage our senses, feeling the sun’s warmth and the gentle breeze on our skin, hearing the birds and smelling the fresh air.

Mindful Monday: Take some mindful breaths today to help you release tension. Add a mantra, such as repeating to yourself “let” as you breath in deeply and “go” as you slowly breath out.

The intension this week was to help relieve tension. For my younger yogi’s, we called it Spaghetti Yoga! Raw spaghetti verses cooked spaghetti is a child friendly way of explaining what tension can feel like in the body and mind. We worked on releasing tension with cat/cow, plow and childs poses, a tense and release meditation and a relaxing Spaghetti Massage.
My adult session today certainly worked - my body and mind feel like I am beginning to release not only my Covid illness but the tension I felt from having it and trying to recover as quickly as possible.

This storm will pass. Sometimes we all need to ride out our emotional storms because inevitably they will pass; our mood will change just like how the weather is always changing. Mindfulness technique to grow emotional awareness: We are the blue sky where the weather happens and the weather is our feelings. Feelings are just things passing through your mind. You are not your feelings. For more info see my blog on ‘Emotional Literacy: Exploring and Expressing Emotions’ : https://www.thewondertree.co.uk/single-post/exploring-and-expressing-emotions
