I'm ambitious and goal focused by nature. Left unchecked these usually positive traits leave me burnt out and dissatisfied. At 26 I had completed a Bachelors with Honours in Civil Engineering, a Master’s in Engineering Management, a Pilates Certification, a Yoga Certification, and numerous Myofascial Release Certifications.
I had experienced the corporate world burn out working full time as a structural engineer. I had experienced the hippie side of life teaching Yoga and Pilates full time. I had even successfully combined the two to create what I believed was the optimal balance. Then at 27 I found myself embarking on my next full on career, being a Mum! My midwife introduced me to Essential Oils when routine tests repeatedly showed my immune system was battling. One sniff and I was hooked! Essential Oils now feature in all aspects of my life along side Yoga Pilates and Myofascial Release. My journey so far has taught me that genuine success, control, and strength, comes only as a result of a life lived in balance. I am so excited to be able to share with you that you don’t have to live your life battling one obstacle after another. Yoga, Pilates, Myofascial Stimulation and Essential Oils can be used strategically to create balance in our lives. We can do anything, achieve anything we dream of. We don’t need to feel stressed or burnt out. We can have a full life, well lived. Julia x |
