Michelle is a long time yoga practitioner, yoga teacher, folk herbalist, non-dual dharma practitioner, contemplative psychotherapist (in training) and nature enthusiast. Her passion is exploring the application of therapeutic tools of the yogic and dharma traditions to build resilience, cultivate lasting change and instill life-long positive habits that support and balance her clients. Michelle trains yoga teachers and runs retreats and mentorship programs in South Africa and Europe. Her love for plants and plant healing led her to Peru as a teenager and birthed a life long love and fascination with the Amazon basin. She has spent time immersed with local tribes gaining knowledge and understanding the plants and cosmologies of healing while doing personal work and facilitating retreats in the Amazon. 
Her path has woven together plants, people and spirituality in order to cultivate an environment of peace and growth. Her wish is that all beings may benefit from what she shares and through this, recognize the preciousness of this human life. In our conversation we traverse the landscape of Michelle's work and daily practice and share with you invitations, ideas and hopefully, inspiration.
