Pampered Mind & Body

Shamsa Johnston. My yoga journey started in my early years. I had a little yoga pocketbook and I played about with some of the postures. I attended my first very generic class at a local gym in my mid 20’s. While the experience wasn’t anything spectacular, there was something that called me to return, so I answered that call – again and again. When living overseas in South Africa, I began attending a weekly class and became aware that although my life was comfortable and looked picture perfect from the outside, under the surface was anger, frustration, fear and worry, along with a realisation that there were places and relationships that were very out of alignment.
