About Lisa Horwell…
Lisa refers to herself as a Grateful Yogi, a Sober Witch and a Gong Goddess. Her yoga journey started in 1995 when she was in the grips of PTSD. Her first class allowed her to experience deep healing, realising she needed regular practise in her life. She studied the BWY teaching diploma, then the Pregnancy module with Wendy Teasdill. She has been teaching community group classes/ pregnancy/ post natal / children’s yoga in schools and furthered her studies at Yogacampus, as a qualified C-IAYT yoga therapist.

“Always enlightening and interesting! Good for the soul – friendly, inclusive, informative and caring, like a warm hug from a good friend. What more could you want from a podcast?”
“Fantastic podcast. Wonderful interesting subjects and very enjoyable to listen to.”
“Incredible!!! Spirituality plus real life, sprinkled with a huge dose of love. This podcast will speak to your soul. Raw, authentic and honest. Despite how it’s commercially depicted, yoga isn’t some contortionist act or sweating in a studio. Nor is it a group hippies chanting. Yoga is life. This podcast is an absolute blessing!!”
