Friends, I know I've been quiet on the social media front, but have been busy, busy, busy learning, practicing and growing!

Part of this growth is moving more into the healing side of my work, so I'll be merging this page with my new page Victoria Nhan Yoga, Mindfulness & Reiki. Please give that page a like, and stay tuned for some exciting updates on my travels and personal growth adventures! 🙏🙏❤️

Our ops boss Victakes' current office views in , Thailand! Just because your plate is full with emails, Skype meetings and to do lists doesn't mean you have to complete them indoors 🌿🌊

Looking forward to chatting more about practical ways to bring mindfulness into our daily lives: as we travel, answer emails, scroll through social media, and even when we drink our coffee in the morning.

Don't forget to register for my special 2-hour workshop, "Mindfulness for Digital Nomads" on Monday 28 August, 4-6pm at Nomad Yoga Hoi An, PM for full details.

"Good times happen over coffee." True ✌️☕️

Ever wonder why at the end of EVERY yoga class Savasana is the closing pose? The next time you want to leave a yoga class before Savasana, I’d encourage you to think twice. “When we calm the body, we calm the mind.” And in this state of calmness and stillness, magical things can happen. Healing and transformation can happen.

Today I Cried in Savasana | victakes An incredible insight came to me as I laid there. For the first time ever, I cried at the end of my yoga practice while in Savasana.

Practicing next to the river and under the clouds. What a beautiful way to share International Yoga Day with all of these folks during Nomad Yoga Hoi An's yoga flashmob in the middle of Hoi An's Old Town. ⠀

Yoga and mindfulness are practices that've changed my life. More than balancing on one foot, I've learnt how to embrace both happiness and suffering, how to communicate with myself, how my breath is a magical tool and ways to live mindfully off the mat. Thanks to everyone who've shared this beautiful journey with me 🙏
