My name is Emily Gilchrist and I am a mother, yoga teacher, energy healer, mindfulness coach, fun loving, creative, cheeky catalyst for transformation and positive change. I am devoted to the path of creating sacred, safe, loving and nurturing spaces where people can come, unravel, and be free to show up without apology, exactly as they are. I believe in being authentic and sharing the imperfect, perfect truth of who I am and life, so we can learn to truly accept and embrace the whole of who we all are. How it began I became involved in the art of healing over 20 years ago, after my own personal journey in Yoga had started. Yoga found me at a crucial turning point in my life back in 2001, whilst living in India. It was through my own trauma and being left with little confidence in myself and who I was that got me on the mat! It didn’t take long before I noticed the profound benefits Yoga had started to have on my overall state of mind and wellbeing, that I soon found myself on the way to the ashram, in south India, embarking on my first TTC, where the course of my path would change forever! I left knowing it was my mission to share this medicine wherever my heart led me. At 17 I left home with a strong desire for freedom and discovery as well as spiritual hunger. My life took me on some wonderful, painful twists and turns resulting in living and travelling in a wide variety of countries. My work diverted from waitressing, sales work, acting, wholesaler of clothes, you name it, I tried it and finally found my path in Yoga. I have spent half my adult life living abroad,
