About
​Freya has been practising various forms of mindfulness and meditation for many years. Her first experiences were as a child with a regular practice of yoga, dance, and tai chi.
​
When Freya began practising as a Chiropractor in
1997 she also started teaching mindfulness of breath techniques to patients, to help them with sleep and stress reduction.
In 2013 due to a debilitating health challenge, Freya had to suddenly stop working as a Chiropractor. She increased her dedication to her daily formal meditation practice and also found Yin Yoga. She found both so valuable that she decided to train as a meditation & yoga teacher to be able to share the benefits with others.
​
Adding mindfulness, meditation, qigong and yoga to your bag of 'life tools' is invaluable for navigating the rollercoaster ride of life, and for helping to re-fill your cup.
If you would like to join any of Freya's classes, workshops or retreats please have a look at the current timetable or contact her directly. She also shares practices in her award-winning book - WONDER FULL WOMEN. ATTUNE & BLOOM. Eat, Move & Meditate with the Seasons.
​
Freya is a registered mindfulness & meditation teacher with Meditation Association of Australia, a registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance International, and a registered Chiropractor with AHPRA. She continues to learn, regularly train with others, and attend retreats alongside her daily practice for professional and personal growth.
