Yoga Life

Lies Okkerse

I can’t put into words what it does to my heart, and it gives me so much purpose to hand out certificates to fresh graduates. Here’s a photo of one of our trainees, who is now a fresh graduate, who had the courage to step onto the teachers’ mat on the last day of training. As the season comes to an end, I am grateful to have facilitated three yoga teacher trainings in addition to the retreats this year. I manage a holistic retreat centre for most of the year, and they, aka the guardians, allow me so much space that I can continue to do this on the side. Yes to freedom and entrepreneurship. I am questioned a lot about what I do for a living. I just be. I do what I love. I share my passion for yoga, breathwork, and meditation with others. This photo was taken during our second last training by the talented @theflorescer in Lisbon, PT. Big shout out to the most recent graduates of the last training held in Ericeira, PT. @anyaimany5 @doyouseaclouds @klaudia.dalia @claudia__costa @liza_alanah @mariana_junqueiro @lucajohanna @herbalmoonyoga @tams.pereira @mereiligteringen #yin #ytt #teacher #training #immersion #education #tcm #chinesemedicine #yoga #humanities #etics #philosophy #asana #pranayama #pratyahara #dharana #dhyana #gunas #kleshas #ericeira #portugal #europe
