Elena is a trained yoga and meditation teacher from the Gita Hatha Yoga tradition. She is also a Chiropractor and Acupuncturist. She has a passion for the ancient wisdom teachings and making them practical in our lives.

I have studied the ancient wisdom teachings for 20 years, particularly the works of Alice Bailey which are rooted in the Theosophical tradition. Her writings offer a synthesis of esoteric philosophy, spiritual psychology, and insights from the great yogic cosmic cycles. The teachings speak of the evolution of consciousness and humanity’s role in a bigger plan of world development.

The emphasis of the wisdom teachings is to show us that our Guru is our own Soul - the inner teacher and that soul is light. The story for each of us is the journey to enlightenment, to love or ethics, to service to humanity. These teachings are more than a philosophy, their practical application to life leads to greater fulfilment and understanding of our individual and collective purpose.

The ancient wisdom teachings help us to zoom out and take the overview and look at life as a series of ebbs and flows, or cycles. Rather than getting bogged down in the difficulties or the drudgery of life we expand our awareness and see swathes of time that have passed behind us and are yet to come before us. This expansive outlook takes the pressure off and lightens the load.

The ageless wisdom teachings remind us who we are beyond our roles in life and remind us that we are all connected. They especially remind us that there are steps to achieving freedom that we can follow - these steps may be arduous but they are steps nonetheless that we can follow when our restlessness with the physical plane forces us to begin to look inward.
