Hi 🌸

I offer virtual wellness counselling for anyone needing a little more support with their mental and emotional wellbeing.

My role is to listen and support you in finding connection with yourself. I work with clients navigating anxiety, burnout, grief and loss, and life transitions, as well as those who simply need a talk space to sort through mental clutter.

If you’d like to work together, you can book via the link in my bio or send me a message.

Sliding scale & free intro calls available.

I’ve been struggling with socials a lot lately. I honestly don’t know what to post anymore. Most of this year was spent behind a computer, reading journal after journal until I was dreaming about p > 0.05. My desk setup wasn’t Pinterest-worthy. My days felt too “boring” to share. It’s nice to have bits of my life back again… but some things haven’t changed.
Like the damned dishes.
And deciding what to eat every day.
And living in old t-shirts.
I think I’m just a little tired of the perfect, curated, highlight-only version of life we see here. And I see how much it affects people. In sessions, the same theme comes up over and over: “Everyone else seems to have it together.” But they don’t. We just don’t post the messy bits. Most of us are doing our best in messy houses and normal bodies.
If you ever feel behind… you aren’t.
Here’s my contribution to the mess. 🤍

The Artists Way Book Club 2026 🎨

Join our little WhatsApp bookclub while we work through Julia Cameron’s The Artists Way (I am DETERMINED to get through it this time)

The Artist’s Way is a 12-week journey (✨through hell✨ and back again).
You don’t need to be a painter, a writer, or a musician. You don’t need to consider yourself a typical “artist” to find significant benefits from The Artist’s Way.
This book is for anyone interested in exploring their creativity (and creativity comes is many, many forms) and connecting to their inner self.
I’ve read heaps of “self-help” books, none of them have kicked my ass the way the Artist’s Way did.
If you have questions regarding the book, please pop me a message, I’ll do my best to answer them.

Our Bookclub is very casual. We meet online from time to time, but otherwise discussions happen in our WhatsApp group.

Anyone is welcome to join🙏 the WhatsApp group link is in my bio.

Somatic meditation is a practice of awareness through the body… a way of listening to sensation, movement, and emotion as the language.
It’s mindfulness embodiment, where we learn that the body is not something to overcome.

Instead of a “top-down” process driven by the thinking mind, Somatic Meditation uses a “bottom-up process”. It involves accessing a meditative space through the feelings, sensations, visceral intuitions, and felt senses of the body.

Let’s talk about a cooling pranayama practice: Sitali Breath ❄️
This technique is known for its ability to soothe and calm the mind and body, especially during those hot summer days or moments of intense emotions.

How to do it:
* Sit comfortably with a straight spine.
* Stick out your tongue and curl the sides to form a tube.
* Inhale deeply through the “tube,” feel the cooling sensation as the air passes over your tongue.
* Close your mouth and exhale through your nose.
* Repeat

Give it a try and let the waves of calm wash over you

Hello, wonderful humans! I’m Cait, a dedicated and passionate yoga instructor with over 500 hours of certified training.
My journey with yoga began in my teens, initially as a means to manage anxiety and insomnia. What started as a therapeutic practice quickly became a profound love for the fluidity and mindfulness of yoga. At 19, I embarked on my first teacher training in Johannesburg, and although teaching yoga wasn’t my initial plan, the mat kept calling me back.
In 2017, I founded Udaya Yoga (originally Meraki Yoga) in Somerset West, focusing on private sessions and classes tailored for seniors and children. The studio found its first official home when I moved to Nelspruit in 2018, blossoming into a welcoming space for all.
I’m versed in various styles, including Vinyasa, Hatha, Restorative, and Ashtanga yoga. My heart, however, is drawn to the creative flow of Vinyasa. My classes strike a balance between gentleness and challenge, catering to both the body and the mind.
Beyond my foundational training, I’ve delved deeper into the world of yoga, completing courses in Ayurveda, yoga therapy, meditation, and advanced teacher training. These experiences have not only enriched my teaching but also my personal journey.
Yoga has become more than just a practice for me; it’s a cornerstone of my life, leading me to new passions and paths I never would have discovered otherwise.
I’m excited to share this transformative journey with you, blending ancient wisdom with a modern understanding of the mind and body.

Qualifications:
200hr Vinyasa Yoga Training
100hr Ashtanga Yoga Training
300hr Multi-style Yoga Training
