About Caroline
I have always been drawn to exploring the depth of the human experience. My professional background is in the classroom, teaching English Literature and leadership but I wanted to teach and learn about life on a deeper, more embodied level so I trained in and taught multiple disciplines of yoga, Eastern philosophy, elements of TCM, trauma, psychology, philosophy and the energy body. I took courses on breath work and became a devoted mindfulness student, then practitioner, teaching myself and many others how to begin to observe and disidentify with the mind. Motherhood was my greatest teacher – when my son was born, it catapulted my personal growth providing an opportunity to explore how I nurtured and parented myself and the unconscious patterns I was carrying. I became acutely aware of the embodied power of the feminine – I devoured books and courses that came my way but it was my own experience of feeling something greater inside me that was most profound. I was given the deeply uncomfortable opportunity to slow down and really be with my experience during those early years of mothering so keeping busy was not an option. I was slowly, painfully and beautifully ‘re-birthing’ myself! I now teach classes and one to ones on all I have and continue to learn.
