A MESSAGE TO MY GURU 🙏

I am happy to share with you all a heartfelt message to my Guru Ganga Devi

Eight days ago I arrived at your beautiful eco village in Croatia feeling ready, but also carrying so much within me. I came with questions about who I really am, what my purpose is and what it truly means to surrender, to be devoted and to live my dharma.

I had spent so much of my life identifying myself through my roles as a mother, daughter, sister, wife, grandmother and businesswoman that somewhere along the way I had lost sight of the conscious self underneath all of that.

These last eight days with you have changed something deeply within me. Through your teachings, your honesty, your challenges and your love you have helped me remember who I am. As situations in life keep pulling me from it. I’m not the version of me shaped by what others expect or need me to be, but the part of me that has always been there. I feel more connected to myself, to the Divine and to the path I know I am here to walk, my clarity is stronger on each step of my journey with you.

You have taught me that surrender is not about becoming weak or giving away my power. It is about letting go of control, trusting and remaining open to what life and the teachings are showing me. Devotion is not something I do it’s a way I choose to live. It is in my daily practice, my meditation, my yoga, the way I teach, the way I serve and the love I bring into the lives of others.

Through the Sculpted Glow work, I have felt emotions move through me that I didn’t even realise I was still holding. I have learned to feel my face rather than simply look at it. I now understand how much emotion and tension we can carry within the face and how powerful it is to release it with awareness, breath and intention.

Sculpted Glow is going to be amazing for the women I teach. The natural transformation and the emotional release that can happen through the face is phenomenal. I feel so excited and grateful to bring this method home and share everything I have learned with other women, helping them reconnect with their faces in a much deeper and more loving way.

I arrived still questioning parts of myself and allowing the behaviour and opinions of others to affect my peace. I leave knowing that I do not need to make myself smaller for anyone. I can live with love and compassion while still having boundaries. I can remain true to myself without needing to be understood or approved of by everyone.

What never needed to change was my heart, my integrity, my love for my family, my instinct to protect others and my desire to help people. Those parts of me were never wrong. They simply needed direction, trust and a deeper connection to my dharma.

Ganga, you have been my guru since I first contacted you about coming to India many years ago. From that first contact, you have supported and guided me through my yoga teacher training, yoga therapy, emotional healing, face sculpting and now my Master Path. This experience has brought everything together for me. I feel like I am leaving with greater clarity, strength and responsibility for how I choose to live my life.

Thank you for seeing me, challenging me and reminding me of who I am beneath every role and every story.

I arrived searching for answers as life became challenging and surroundings became strange. I leave remembering that what I was searching for was already within me. You simply helped me remember again, your always there as my Guru through my life struggles, doubts and successes, I’m eternally grateful to eveything you do for me and this last week being alone with you has been so special and will remain in my heart for eternity

With all my love, gratitude and devotion

Lokatiita

Babanam Kevalam — love is all there is.

Arrived safely at Manchester Airport, with a heart full of gratitude and excitement, ready to meet my guru and begin my Master Path.

I truly believe I have been guided to this moment and that I am exactly where I am meant to be. I’m stepping into this sacred journey with an open heart, complete trust and a willingness to grow, learn and surrender to all that is waiting for me.

My guru has remained my guru since I first received her teachings in India many years ago. She has supported and guided me throughout my yoga teacher training, my yoga therapy training and my journey to becoming a qualified yoga therapist. She has also walked beside me through emotional healing, face-sculpting training and now this deeply meaningful Master Path.

Through every stage, I have remained loyal to my guru, to her teachings and most importantly, to my own truth. For me this path is about staying authentic, honouring where my teachings came from and continuing to grow with humility, devotion and integrity.

I know this experience will deepen my connection to myself, my purpose and the universal love that guides us all. I trust that everything I receive will allow me to return with greater wisdom, compassion and understanding, so I can share it with others and help them along their own paths.

This is more than a journey, it feels like a calling and I am ready.

Babanam Kevalam—love is all there is. 🤍

Lots of love,
Leeanne (Lokatiita)🤍🤍

What happens when you stop being available to everyone?

There comes a point in midlife when many women start questioning the version of themselves they've spent years becoming.

The one who always says yes.

The one who keeps everyone else happy.

The one who listens, supports, organises and somehow manages to keep everything going.

And then something changes.

Maybe you don't have the same capacity anymore.

You're starting to say no more often and realising that being endlessly available to everyone else has left very little space for you.

And sometimes the people around you don't quite know what to make of this new version of you.

Which can leave you wondering...Who am I now?

That's the conversation Vicky will be exploring at September's Midlife, Unfiltered Circle here at Inside Out Wellness Studio.

🌿 September's Conversation: Who Am I Now? Finding Yourself Again

Vicky will introduce her Identity Shift Framework and Tree of Midlife, exploring why we can reach a point where we no longer feel like ourselves and what happens when we begin to reconnect with who we are underneath all the roles, expectations and old patterns we've carried for years.

But this isn't a workshop where you'll sit and listen to someone talk for two hours.

It's a relaxed evening of conversation, reflection, connection and those inevitable "me too" moments.

Come exactly as you are. There's no pressure to share and no expectation to have all the answers.

📅 Thursday 3rd September
🕖 7pm–9pm
📍 Inside Out Wellness Studio, Seaham
💷 £15

Places are limited to keep the Circle small and welcoming.

You can find all the details and book your place here:

Midlife, Unfiltered Circle | September Finally, a place where you don't have to pretend everything is fine. The Midlife, Unfiltered Circle is a monthly evening of reflection, connection and honest conversation for women who feel they've lost sight of themselves, are carrying far too much, or simply long for deeper conversations with wome...

Good morning beautiful people 🤍

As Sunday gets closer, I’ve been reflecting on just how much this next journey means to me. I’m returning once again to beautiful Croatia, where I’ll spend a full week one to one with my guru, walking what is called my Master Path.

This is an opportunity I’ll never take for granted. So much of my training, my teachings, my inner work and everything I’ve experienced along the way has brought me to this moment.

And today, more than anything, I feel grateful. 🙏🏼

Grateful for the loyal, genuine people who are around me now. For the opportunities that are opening up. For the beautiful people I’m meeting through wellness and for the way life seems to bring the right souls into our path at exactly the right time.

I’m also grateful for what has fallen away.

The universe has a funny way of creating space. Sometimes people, situations and things we thought were meant to stay simply aren’t aligned with where we’re going anymore. And I’m learning that we don’t always need to question it or react to it.

Trust yourself. Trust your journey. Trust the universe. ✨

There is so much power in becoming the witness — observing rather than reacting, noticing what life is showing you, recognising your own patterns and allowing yourself to learn from it all.

The power of witness. 🤍

So as I prepare for my Master Path, I’m going with an open heart. Ready to learn more deeply, ready to understand more of myself and ready to continue evolving not just to hold these teachings for myself, but to bring what I learn home and share it with those who may need it.

Babanam Kevalam — Love is all there is. 🙏🏼

Lots of love,
Leeanne (Lokatiita) 🤍

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – AN EXCITING NEW OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN ✨

We are currently working on something really special through Inside Out Yoga Wellness CIC and would love to hear from women who may benefit. 🤍

We are applying for funding to deliver a FREE programme supporting women who are currently out of work and not actively job searching, helping them rebuild confidence, learn new skills and begin taking positive steps towards their future.

If our funding application is successful, RISE – Rebuilding Independence, Skills & Employment will offer a beautiful, supportive programme which may include:

✨ FREE hair & beauty training
✨ Confidence & self-esteem building
✨ Wellbeing and personal development
✨ Employability & workplace skills
✨ CV and interview support
✨ Work experience & employer opportunities
✨ Support into further education or accredited training
✨ Guidance around employment & self-employment
✨ One-to-one support throughout your journey
✨ Connections to other services if there are barriers holding you back

We are particularly interested in hearing from women aged 18+ who are currently not working and not actively looking for work, and who may be experiencing barriers such as:

🤍 Low confidence
🤍 Poor physical or emotional wellbeing
🤍 Social isolation
🤍 Caring responsibilities
🤍 Neurodivergence or disability
🤍 Financial difficulties
🤍 Lack of qualifications or skills
🤍 Being out of employment for some time
🤍 Simply not knowing where to begin

You don’t need to have experience in hair or beauty.

You don’t need to know exactly what you want to do.

That’s what we want to help you discover.

This isn’t just about completing a course. We want to help women build confidence, learn, connect and begin creating a pathway towards training, employment or self-employment.

🌿 IMPORTANT: This programme is currently subject to a successful funding application. At this stage we are gathering expressions of interest to demonstrate local demand and identify women who could potentially benefit if funding is awarded.

Expressing interest does not guarantee a funded place, and eligibility would need to be confirmed before joining the programme.

If this sounds like something that could help you, please PRIVATE MESSAGE us with “RISE” and we will send you a short confidential expression-of-interest form.

Please don’t share personal or health information in the comments.

And if you know a woman who could really benefit from an opportunity like this, please share this post with her. 🤍

Sometimes all somebody needs is the right opportunity, the right support and someone to believe that there is another path forward.
