Ki-Tie
is a yoga teacher based in Chester and on the Wirral in the North West of England.
She has been practising restorative yoga for 48 years and conducts regular weekly
classes.
About Ki-Tie: "When I was 8 years old and living in Hong Kong I
experienced persistent ill health with tonsillitis. My parent s felt it was appropriate to
send me for Western medication, as it was deemed the most advanced medical care. I was
given penicillin injections and medication frequently for around 4 years. I was unable to act
like a child because of illness. Instead I became a watcher of life, contemplating people and
life's journey.
I came
to England at age 12 and my health transformed through the less polluted environment. The new
environment offered a fresh start for me and I left my illness behind. I experienced a
new lease of life but I still retained my need for contemplation and
stillness.
I have
been practising yoga for 48 years and am an officially trained yoga instructor with the
Comprehensive Yoga Fellowship (CYF). My personal life experiences have taught me the true
meaning of yoga and how to apply it to everyday life. Whilst sharing my philosophies and way
of life for many years throughout my varied career, it is ony in the last 13 years I started
conducting structured restorative yoga classes.
Many
people think of yoga as exercise and movement but I know that yoga is much more;
it is a way of life. I have used my beliefs to help many people who have been suffering from
either physical or mental illnesses or emotional disturbance.
I have
mentored many students and have empowered them to bring positive change and enabled them to reach
their goals and ultimately achieve peace and fulfillment.
Philosophy: My new life in the west brought many new challenges
and fears but my beliefs enabled me to focus on accepting the challenge and the fear and to work
with them rather than fight them. I became friends with my fears.
Through
gentle but consistnet work with the body, I teach you how to let your beliefs work for
you.
I have
learnt to heal myself through experiences in life. Whilst we all have different experiences,
through my teachings, you can learn to heal yourself through your own
experiences.
All
experiences in life are gifts that bring lessons that enable us to achieve greater
fulfillment.
Exercise relaxes the mind; the mind is the key to everything. the mind controls
the body; the body is a reflection of the mind. Mindsets are habits, habits we can
reverse.
Once we
have learnt, we can share. Through your own peace; people around you will become
peaceful.
Peace,
calmness and positivity are contagious.
