Semester 2 Examination Diet @uniofstandrews will be underway this month of May where parallel to being a therapist and yoga teacher I lecture on the Pre-Med program and it’s a whirlwind few weeks ahead. Hence my availability is less before a shift in June when my students flee for summer vacation ☀️
Thank you for your unwavering loyalty, understanding and support. Being a therapist for 22 years and counting I continue to learn something new in each and every client treatment which is a humbling and rewarding gift I am grateful for.
Peace and love to you, ♥ Alice x |
