"You are such a great teacher and really shine a light for me on ways to connect to myself again. I've lost just under 10kg since starting yoga, I've totally quit cannabis that was a weirdly insurmountable addiction for a long time, I've managed to lovingly close the door on relationships that were damaging for all parties. I always threw myself into yoga postures in the past, but incorporating the breathing techniques before and after have become habit and it's a wonderful thing to be able to be there. I'd never considered the way I breathe to be nourishing but it truly can be, when guided by a wonderful teacher to that place you'd never acknowledged before. So thank you so much Louise. I'm so grateful." Kate, Ammanford

"I really like the mindful approach to yoga Louise uses and come away from classes relaxed, calm, and of course stretched!" Cliff, Gower
One day the sun admitted,
I am just a shadow.
I wish I could show you
The Infinite Incandescence
That has cast my brilliant image!
I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in darkness,
The astonishing Light
Of your own Being!
Hafiz
"I struggle with quite severe fibromyalgia, ME, Crohns disease, osteoarthritis and anxiety, so it is amazing to feel good, despite the pain. A normal night's sleep for me is 9.30 -2am, maybe 3 if I'm lucky and I thought I might struggle with that last night after yoga nidra, but I fell asleep at 7.30 and woke at 4am. Brilliant. I even slept through my alarm to take my meds! So glad I bought your CD as I now have you on tap. I can't thank you enough, haven't felt so good in ages. I'm just at the beginning of meditation and yoga that I can manage physically and yesterday has reaffirmed my hope that it can help change things for me. I just mentally and physically feel the best I have in years, can't wait to come to you again."
