Autorenporträt
Michelle is a qualified meditation instructor, children's yoga teacher, homeopath and lawyer. When her three children were at primary school, she felt the need to support them and their friends through the stress of exams and qualified as a children's yoga teacher to teach yoga and relaxation at their school. The children particularly enjoyed relaxation at the end of the class so she introduced meditation exercises to increase their imagination and creativity as well as helping them to reduce stress levels and discover 'quiet time'. During her career as a City lawyer, Michelle gained insight into the stressful lives that many City workers lead, working long hours with pressurised deadlines. After leaving her full time career in the City, she qualified as a homeopath and later on as a meditation instructor to gain deeper insight into teaching meditation. Michelle includes meditation exercises in an holistic approach to treating homeopathic clients. She also provides individual and group meditation session for adults and children in North West London area. For more information see www.wonderofstillness.com
