About Me...

Picture
After a rewarding, yet intense, 15 years working in the marketing industry I decided the time was right for a change in direction and one that would hopefully bring a more nourishing work-life balance.   Inspired by a life-long interest in yoga, meditation and natural therapies I left my hometown of Edinburgh in October 2012 to travel, study and gain professional experience in a variety of disciplines that would lay the foundation for an eventual career in holistic healthcare.   ​              
My studies and practice took me through India, Thailand, Laos, Australia and France, during which time I was able to build up 7 years’ experience working as a yoga & meditation instructor, yoga therapist and bodyworker.   It also saw me gain additional qualifications in nutrition and Ayurvedic therapies which have been useful tools in my yoga and massage work.
             
​Whilst working in South West France in the summer of 2015, the Tarn countryside captured my heart and convinced me it was finally time to put down some roots. I moved to Les Cabannes in the spring of 2016 and launched Amulet shortly thereafter.    After a successful start in Les Cabannes, Amulet moved to new permanent premises in Saint-Martin-Laguepie in May 2017.   Amulet aims to offer massage, meditation and yoga to the local community and visitors to the region.
