Fawzia Munshi ~ The Foodie Yogini
Certified Yoga Teacher since 2015, the path took me on a wondrous journey of discovery through East Africa and SE Asia, before leading me to Senegal – one of the countries I now call home. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that Yoga is for everybody, as well as every (type of) body.
For me, yoga – in all its shapes and forms – is a practice of devotion. Physical postures release blockages in the body, Meditation reminds us that we are the embodiment of the Divine, and the breath is the bridge that unites them.
