Why I believe in God. God saved me. … During my informative years I was plagued by mental illness. Body dysmorphic disorder ruled my world for 12 years, from the age of 11-23. As my illness progressed it morphed into severe anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. I’m aware how some people may view eating disorders; some feel that it is a choice, but I can assure you, it is not. I tried to stop many times, but just like any other mental illness, I was unable to will it away on my own and would always end up bingeing and purging. I remember my breaking point, when I turned to God. My head hung deep into the toilet bowl, the backend of a toothbrush down my throat, my body convulsing from the gag reflux, tears streaming down my face. And all I could think about was, I don’t want to be this person anymore. I don’t want every thought of everyday to be about what to eat and when to eat and how to throw it all up afterwards. So many precious moments were half lived because I was never truly present and I knew I didn’t want to live that way anymore. I wanted to love life and live life again just as a did when I was a child. And so I begged God to help me, I pleaded for Him to give me the strength I needed to overcome this horrible disease. God heard my cries and He saved me. The very next day, the world seemed clearer, brighter, more beautiful than it was the day before, and for the first time in a very long time, I felt genuinely happy. Did I fall? Once. I binged and purged, but while purging I knew that it would be the very last time. This experience strengthened my faith in God. It reassures me during these days of darkness that God’s Will shall rule. I wish you all strength, love and peace during this time. #Godbless #havefaith #blessed #yoga #yogapractice Music by @carrieunderwood - Amazing Grace

One of my very favourite things to do with my spare time is craft yoga practices. This one in particular is inspired by the music of Nitti Gritti and Jimmy Levy - Matrix. This practice is dedicated to all of the freedom fighters around the world that are working hard to bring justice to those who seek to destroy God’s beautiful creations. Ephesians 6:10-13 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground…

Hello! My name is Dani. I’ve been a yoga teacher since 2008 in Ontario, Canada. I took a break during Covid due to the mandates. I’m a little rusty, but I hope that we can grow our practices together! I hope that this simple flow uplifts your mind and body:) Comment below to let me know what you would like to see in future practices. See you soon!

Getting some hands on experience for our future greenhouse build!
