My journey into mindfulness began with my own story of healing childhood trauma of experiencing a long-term illness as a child.
After spending years working with children in hospitals, schools and private practice, witnessing the impact of mindfulness and yoga on children, I created Monkinya to pass on my learnings and share tools to help build resilience, self-compassion, and courage from an early age.
Now, as a mom to my little one, I’ve learned that mindfulness begins with us and fills our homes with calm, kindness and compassion.
