Having worked with teenagers for 10 years, in my role as a secondary school teacher and more recently as a mindfulness and self-compassion coach. I have a strong desire to learn more and more within this field as I see the positive impact mindfulness has on teenagers mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.

This story begins with a demon and like most demons, he wanted to rule the world. But although he was big and strong, he knew that he didn’t possess the power of the Gods and there would be no way to beat them without being very clever. So he began to study. He spoke to the Sages, he travelled to distant monasteries and he made a discovery. Tales of arcane gifts and mystical powers given by the Gods themselves to those that showed their perfect devotion. The god that was most vulnerable to a bit of flattery? None other than Shiva himself. The King of the Yogis.
