You will learn how to 'go within' and 'create a better life' ... a balanced life! You will learn a new way of thinking which wlll serve you and bring you joy.
Yolanda is a wonderful communicator and manages to clearly un-complicate the complicated. She is passionate and compassionate.
Yolanda is not an ordinary person and her sessions with you will be extraordinary. She will work with you on your issues to assist you in finding the balance that is right for you.
Her life has not been easy and she has overcome adversity and barriers which might well have defeated others. She was raised in an orphanage from a baby to the age of seven. She was homeless and required to totally self-support herself from the vulnerable age of fifteen.
Yolanda started on her path to self discovery in her early twenties. For many years she conducted the empowering Personal Development course 'Powerful Planning'. She is selfless in sharing her wisdom and knowledge for those who are also interested in finding true joy and meaning to their own lives ... a better life!
She believes that daily life is a constant learning ground and forever evolving and that life itself is the teacher. She believes it’s how we handle what occurs in our every-day lives (good or bad) and how we evolve from this into better people.
Yolanda is a warm, funny, inspiring teacher and presenter … now in her youthful mid-50’s, she is truly a living testimony to the positive benefits of her teachings.
The ancient teachings of Yoga say 'Our body is the temple which houses our Soul'. The 'holistic' practice of Hatha Yoga stretches and strengthens our body and nurtures our Soul.
The Yoga style is classical HATHA ... uniquely 'Yolanda-style' and very do-able.
Her classes are holistic and nurturing, incorporating yogic breathing (pranayama), deep relaxation (yoga nidra), Chakra clearing-energising and a philosophy for positive daily living.
Her beautiful studio/sanctuary is a true haven for peace and calm in a busy city and is set up for comfort... the floor is heated in winter and is naturally cooled in summer.
Yoga class maximum attendees at any session is only 12... bliss!

Testimonials …
I originally sought Yolanda’s guidance to help me overcome immense anxiety and sadness due to a relationship breakdown. I was hoping to learn some techniques to deal with this anxiety, and thought meditation would be the way to go. Yolanda’s holistic approach to the obstacles I was facing was not what I expected. Having been to a counselor before, I expected similar from Yolanda – that we would discuss my childhood, my previous relationships, and how they had shaped me. What a surprise I got when Yolanda instead focused on the ‘now’, on my strengths and on building a more positive self image. She taught me to talk more kindly to myself, to be patient with myself, and to appreciate myself. She helped me to recognize that with a breakdown, there must come a breakthrough. She taught me how to write my own affirmations, which I have found incredibly empowering. She has helped me to build a faith and solidity in myself that I never thought was possible. Then there came the meditation - what a wonderful thing to learn! It brings me a sense of softness, of faith, of warmth and stillness, of lightness and guidance, and it is a true pleasure to practice it. Yolanda helped me to find the pride and happiness inside of me again, and since attending her sessions I have never looked back! I would thoroughly recommend her life skills sessions to anyone, no matter how big or small their challenges.

Having suffered years of anxiety, lacking confidence and control of my life, Yolanda turned my life around. I was on a hopeless cycle of psychiatric treatments and getting worse, not better. From high doses of medication, I no longer take or need any. Trusting Yolanda, I experienced a powerful hypnosis session and overcame what I thought were complex life issues. I overcame my depression, anxiety and have learnt invaluable skills to manage life challenges. Yolanda has innate wisdom, compassion and kindness like no other person I will ever meet in my life. She has literally saved my life!

My sleep was the main problem through an overactive mind! I tried more exercise, less exercise, massage and even herbal sleeping aids. None were long lasting. Then I read about Yolanda and knew the time was right for me to try Meditation. Learning to Meditate has without doubt lifted me to a new level of enjoying life both at home and at work, so much so if someone said I had taken a drug at the same time, I might believe them. My patience, listening ability and emotional control are at completely different levels to only a few weeks previously and most importantly I am gradually quietening my sub-conscious mind and sleeping better much more regularly"

I originally went to see Yolanda to help me with a phobia, little did I know at the time that she would change my life. The sessions, which involved counselling and hypnotherapy, not only helped with my phobia but showed me a new way of approaching and living life. At the time I was recovering from 4 years of illness and a divorce and had not realised how much I had been struggling. However, I left these sessions feeling very happy and wanted to ask people if they knew how easy it was to feel that good and did they know what they were missing? This sense of joy happened immediately, within one session, and as I met with Yolanda more and more the feeling intensified. With her guidance I have now learnt the basics of meditation and am also attending her yoga sessions. Whilst it is necessary to meditate each day to gain maximum benefit this is not a chore, it is something I always find time to do. By giving myself 20 minutes a day to meditate I can now take life’s ups and downs in my stride. I am more confident and find work much easier and can work more effectively. I can’t believe how simple it has been and how lucky I was to find such a teacher as Yolanda.

... the problem was I didn't know how to relax, I never had, I'd go home and I'd think about work or something else, never able to switch off and I started having panic attacks. Someone suggested I learn Meditation. Yolanda and I did our first guided meditation and it felt very bizarre, already felt like I was coming out of a dark cloud, I was feeling strong and confident, more in control but I was still scared that at anytime I could get an attack. The next session was to hypnotise me, again something I didn't believe in and I was sceptical, it wasn't like anything I ever thought, I felt amazing. Over the weeks with Yolanda, I transformed from a 'mess' to being strong and confident again. Thankyou Yolanda for helping me with something that I really did think was sending me crazy. You're a special person and I feel like I owe you my life.

I appeared on your doorstep feeling lost, sad and lonely and quite sceptical. I had come out of a very upsetting relationship breakdown and had been on medication for about a year by that stage. You taught me how to love myself again. Through meditation and guidance, you showed me what was really missing from my life. I was amazed at how incorporating simple affirmations and meditation into my daily routine changed my entire outlook on the world and my life. I realised that I had the power within me to change things that were upsetting me and bringing me down. I learnt the absolute power of positive thought and how it brightened my inner self which consequently made my days better. With each session, I grew stronger and learnt more about myself than I ever thought I could. Living each day with more acceptance, tolerance and patience has improved my quality of life. I have learnt to accept things that I cannot change, and also have faith in my abilities to change things that are within my power to do so. You showed me how to let go of my past and most importantly, I believe that your sessions were the sole reason that I am now happily living my life without medication. I learnt that rather than having “depression” as many doctors informed me, I was simply depressing feelings of sadness and helplessness. Instead of focussing on the past, as so many psychiatrists do, you taught me how to let go and move forward to a future filled with love, happiness and health. I am less judgemental of myself, more accepting of my own mistakes and have a much more positive outlook on my future. Thank-you for showing me the the way out of a very dark hole that I could not have gotten out of on my own. I owe my new lease on life to you Yolanda, and I will always be grateful for everything that you taught me. After every session, I leave your doorstep feeling light, happy and carefree!

By going within and finding peace and calm I am now better able to cope with life. I'm not saying it's easy because facing your pain is never easy but I do now have the inner strength to cope. I've realised a lot about my condition also and from research have confirmed what I already knew deep down, that my disease was only a physical symptom of how I was feeling inside. I am ready to heal myself now that you have shown me that I have the tools within me to do this. I never thought when I came to you, that meditation could have such a profound effect on my life, it has literally changed my life, it has given me the inner strength I need to make those changes that I was too afraid to make before. It stills my soul, brings me peace and joy and helps me cope. If only all the world could meditate, it would be such a beautiful world to live in. I feel blessed to have found meditation and couldn't have asked for a better teacher.
