  • Description

    Hi Loves, my name is Esti. I'm an experienced retreat manager and a certified yoga teacher, looking to connect with a wellness resort, preferably longer term. I can run your retreats, guide meditation, yoga and qi gong sessions, as well as write and lead workshops relating to health, yoga and wellness.

    If you're looking to add unique individual and group therapeutic sessions to your schedule, I'm a certified clinical hypnotherapist, and I'll be glad to share my gifts as part of your spiritual wellness offer. I also have a keen interest in somatic therapies, especially yoga therapy for emotional wellbeing, with a focus on personalised yoga programmes for individual clients with hands-on alignments and integrative holistic health practices.

    I also do a lot of work around teaching relationship skills: romantic - as I believe we're all looking for love, and dating or staying in a committed relationship these days can be somewhat tricky, and family - as our familial relations tend to radiate to other areas of life and often affect our overall level of happiness. My interests are vast and I'm always looking to expand personally and professionally. Details of my professional qualifications are listed below.
    --------
    During my workaway with you, your business and your home become my business and my home, which means you can expect me to be respectful, professional, responsible, go the extra mile and put my heart in the everything that I do. If these are not your values, or it is not what you're after, do let me know as I'm likely to burn out if I can't be truly engaged in my work. Also, I'm a sucker for praise - tell me often what i do well (and what you'd like me to improve, too, so we're both happy).

    If the above sounds like the kind of person you'd like around, I'd love to hear from you. Best wishes. Esti

  • Age

    45

  • What else ...

    Other than personal and spiritual development work, I can build a simple website, write your social media content and blog entries (I love creative writing), look after your guests and volunteers, teach your staff English (I was an English teacher and a teacher trainer in another life), meet and greet people, take bookings, man the reception and engage in any aspect of your daily business or family life I feel i can make a positive contribution to.

    I also like DIY, and would not frown at an opportunity to develop my (basic) carpentry and gardening skills. Additionally, as a former teacher, I could look after your kids or homeschool them drawing inspiration from nature and create child-led child-centred educational activities. If you're running a school, I could train your teachers and help write cool educational programmes relevant to your specific context.

    One thing though, whatever you do, do NOT leave me in the kitchen unsupervised. I can peel, slice and dice, but do not let me cook. I can be your sous chef, especially if you cook vegan, gluten-free or do raw food prep, which I really want to learn more about. Just don't let me use the oven or raid your fridge. You've been warned.

    Thanks for reading this far, you rock! If you have any questions, be sure to ask - I will answer 100% truthfully. Communication is key and it's important we both have a positive experience. Sending love. Esti
