IMPACT

 

IMPACT 


Sometimes impact is difficult to measure.

Sometimes it looks like thousands of views.
Sometimes it is one person taking a deeper breath after a long day.


Since starting the platform, this growing collection has reached people in many different ways—through classes, articles, guided practices, talks and conversations.


Every view, every conversation and every shared breath represents a real person taking a moment to pause. 


Here are a few milestones from the journey so far.

🌸 What people often tell me

Instead of listing every compliment, vat samen wat steeds terugkomt:

Participants often describe the experience as:

  • calming
  • grounding
  • authentic
  • welcoming
  • gentle
  • inspiring
  • practical
  • deeply restorative

Many mention leaving with a slower breath, a quieter mind and a greater sense of connection to themselves.

Journey so far

Diary of a Yoga Teacher: Settling In, Shifting, Showing Up (Incl. YouTube video link)

Diary of a Yoga Teacher — Getting Settled In There’s a moment  before  the pose. Before the breath deepens. Before the class begins. Before I fully arrive. You’ll see it in the video — the quiet shifting, the grounding, the subtle micro-movements. A soft shuffle forward, lowering into a seat, adjusting my stance. It’s not performative. It’s not curated. It’s the settling in. These in-between moments matter to me. Because being a yoga teacher isn’t just what I do when I’m guiding others. It’s how I move when no one’s looking. How I listen to my own body first. How I meet myself before I meet the room. Settling in is part of the practice. It’s not polished. It’s not always graceful. But it’s honest. And it’s mine. 🌀  Gentle reflections for your own practice: Can you allow yourself to be present in the  in-between  moments — before the “real” practice begins? What do your transitions say about your state of mind? How would it feel to honour the  way  you...

🌱Holistic Wellness: A Vital Component of Healing and Productivity

Holistic Wellness: A Vital Component of Healing and Productivity 🌱 Recently I was feeling a bit under the weather. I had to call in sick from work.  Honestly, I could barely get out of bed. I just wanted to stay there, hoping I’d recover soon.  But deep down, I had this feeling: when we don’t actively change anything, the chances of feeling better right away are slim. 💭This made me think: what if healing isn’t just about waiting for time to pass?  What if  fueling our bodies with good food,  staying hydrated,  and stepping outside for some sunshine  could actually make a positive difference in our recovery?  Which brings me to the comparison with a plant. 🌱 The Plant Metaphor    As I’ve shared in previous posts, I believe it helps to view ourselves as plants. 🪴  Not that we’re not complex—far from it—but like plants, we too need proper care to thrive.  We need the right nutrition, the right environment, and the right kind o...

🙇‍♀️Child’s Pose: A Simple Practice with Big Benefits

Child’s Pose: A Simple Practice with Big Benefits Known as a resting pose in more active classes, this powerful yet simple pose has many benefits. To really feel the difference, I made up my mind to add this pose more frequently.  So recently, I decided to try Child's Pose 3 times for 5 minutes each. I made time for 5-minute sessions at 3 key points of my day whilst working from home:  Morning : Before work, to start the day feeling calm. Lunchtime : A midday break to reset and recharge. Evening : After work, to unwind and release any lingering tension. Here’s what I noticed after the sessions: Calmer and More Collected : I felt a noticeable shift in my mood, becoming more focused and at ease. Less Tension in My Lower Back : Sitting at a desk for hours can lead to tightness, but Child's Pose helped release some of that tension. Better Core Support : I felt more engaged through my core as I held the pose, which helped me feel more stable. Overall Relaxation : The more I practic...
