Filomena has been practicing and studying Yoga for over 27 years following a first career in Occupational Psychology, vocational guidance, and counselling. She left the latter to prioritize family life.
She subsequently qualified as a Yoga Teacher with TheBritish Wheel of Yoga and has been teaching since 2000.
Her focus on personal practice, self-study, and research is reflected in the themes presented in her sessions, workshops, and courses. These have included:
Yoga Meditation; The Yoga Sutras; Breathwork; Chakras and subtle body awareness and
Managing anxiety, anger, and sadness.
Fil has facilitated and led workshops and courses for various organizations including: –
The N.H.S; The John Lewis Partnership; The Himalayan Institute (U.K.), The British Wheel of Yoga;; Age Concern Carers and Homeless Charities; Family, Youth, Adult Learning and Well-Being Services; Mental Health and Support Groups.
Filomena’s current teaching direction is to share Vishoka Meditation as the pure and simple method that allows us to explore, transform and expand the inner dimensions of life.
Though she will consider herself ‘a work in progress’ she says “Vishoka Meditation has the potential to replenish, free us from any sense of limitation, and allow us to embrace our intrinsic source of vitality, joy, love, and equanimity.
Life becomes purposeful, fulfilling, and complete.”
