I founded Wellbeing Rituals during the first lockdown of 2020. We were all living in a world that was undergoing an intense transformation like we'd never seen before, and had to adapt to a new way of living. During this time, many of us became more aware of the neglected needs in our lives, the changes we needed to make, and the things that truly bring us comfort, joy, and contentment. It really was a wake-up call. What began as a yoga accountability group called 'Yoga Buds' in the early days of the pandemic (initially aimed at keeping us sane and connected), quickly evolved into an online community and virtual wellbeing retreats. Wellbeing Rituals became an antidote to our feelings of isolation, slumped motivation, unstable mood and energy, the stresses of modern life, and our daily struggles, and a place to connect with like-minded individuals. Bringing together physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing practices such as yoga, meditation, breathwork, embodied dance and more, in a way that feels authentic, down-to-earth and digestible, WBR offers an inclusive and accessible safe space for everyone to focus on their wellbeing and experience more connection, self-love, acceptance, inner-freedom and a sense of purpose. Incorporating a sense of lightheartedness and playfulness where fitting is also a key-factor, as I believe that healing can be found through the simple act of embracing joy. By seeking out and engaging in activities that bring us happiness and laughter, we can cultivate a sense of joyfulness that nourishes our soul and promotes healing on a deeper level, uplifting our spirits, dissolving stress, and creating a more harmonious balance within ourselves. Whether facilitating myself or collaborating with a guest facilitator, Wellbeing Rituals aims to cultivate more love, inspiration, unity, and connection, taking care of ourselves both individually and collectively through holistic mind, body and soul care. In an often problematic wellness industry, we celebrate diversity and ensure that individuals of all races, genders, body types, ages, and abilities are welcomed, respected, and encouraged to be their most authentic selves in this space, and that the roots of the practices shared are done so with honour and respect for the cultures they've derived from. With inclusivity in mind, there's always a wide variety of options and flexibility to fit different lifestyles, providing affordable rates with low-income discount options for anyone experiencing financial difficulties, no questions asked. Holistic wellbeing means caring for our whole selves, not just in terms of diet, exercise, mental, spiritual, and emotional health, but also in terms of our social and environmental wellbeing.  Recognising that positive changes can be made both within ourselves and in the world around us, we even have a 'Be The Change' retreat special, that focuses on conscious social and environmental awareness and activism and how it can be integrated into our wellbeing practices.
