Lead Teacher

Vicki Shields

Are you seeking an awakening or a transformation that will help you lead a more grounded, heart-centred life, true to your most authentic self so you can help others to do the same?

Life can be messy. Often our minds can feel pulled in so many directions, conflicted and triggered by things that throw us off balance. What we do know however, is that the breath ( Pranayama ) is our superpower, a way to transform the mind and bring the body back into balance.

Course Intention

This 40 hours CPD course includes 3 weekends over 6 months through simple conscious breath work techniques that shift the activity of the ANS alongside the deeply transformative qualities of Pranayama that help us to go inwards (Pratyahara) and develop a greater ability to focus and concentrate to experience Meditation (Dharana, Dhyana, Samadhi)
