Finding Felicity
Location: Chorley, Lancashire
Language: English
Satisfaction coach, yoga teacher and reflexologist. Empowering people to create and live a happier, healthier and more satisfied life they don’t need to escape from.
Having left her husband and not really knowing why, happiness became an obsession. Felicity has had a fascination with her own name since a French waiter proclaimed "Ah, Felicity! Happiness!" when she was a child. She was astonished that her name was in the dictionary. Felicity felt a sense of loss for the life she had walked away from. She pondered her own name. If she WAS “happiness”, why did she just abandon her “happy” life?
She started Finding Felicity as a reflexologist, then as a happy place on Facebook. She changed direction when she completed Yale’s “Science of Wellbeing” course. Felicity realised WHY she hadn’t been happy - that happiness is not just hedonic pleasure but also compassion, community, meaning and purpose. It opened her eyes to the neuroscience and psychology of what makes us happy and how we can change our happiness.
Felicity deepened her yoga practice of 20 years and her yoga teacher training. A workshop with yoga teacher and osteopath Peter Blackaby was a lightbulb moment when he spoke about neuroplasticity in both our bodies and our brains. Hold on? Didn’t Professor Santos talk about that in the Science of Wellbeing?
The links between the sciences of yoga and of happiness multiplied. Self enquiry. Meditation. The constant process. Felicity could see how the ancient teachings of yoga can guide us to modern day happiness. Yoga & Happiness brings students into their present moment, where self care comes first to empower us to create a better world.
