About Tina Ward
Hello, I’m Tina and I’d like to offer you a warm personal welcome to Yoga Ward International. I’m so happy you are here.
Yoga changed my life. Having worked in the corporate world for many years in the US and Europe, I’d become accustomed to high levels of stress and as a result suffered from severe anxiety. “Why am I not happy and always worried?”, I asked myself. I had tried everything – therapists, life coaches, personal trainers – but nothing changed. Finally, I turned to my yoga practice and followed the teachings of yoga whole heartedly in a search for answers to my own struggles.
Then things started to change – I started to change. My mind stopped spinning so erratically and my anxiety eased. I stopped living in the world of my thoughts and began living in the real world. Yoga taught me that to find happiness, I needed to look inside, not outside.
I launched Yogaward in 2020 to share the process of self transformation I’ve undertaken – i.e., the deeper practice of yoga through movement, breathing, meditation/mindfulness and self exploration.
