My Breast Cancer Journey

I found many resources of benefit to me as I navigated my own diagnosis of Invasive Lobular Breast Cancer in 2021/22. I was very keen to get back to my previous yoga practice and studio. I learnt how to help myself heal post surgery (mastectomy, axillary clearance, DIEP reconstruction) and during follow up treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, target and endocrine treatment)

I have since qualified as a Yoga Teacher and completed further Teacher Training in Yoga for Cancer.

I offer Yoga for Cancer support classes at my home studio or via Zoom. I also teach at St. Margaret’s Hospital in Epping and The Rivers Hospital in Sawbridgeworth.

My aim is to help you build a personal toolkit for your own cancer journey. In particular to help ease the side effects from treatment / long term medication, build back strength, increase range of movement and learn to trust your body again.
