I love to create safe spaces for people to come together, to connect with themselves and others and to take a little time away from the daily grind of modern day living, to appreciate themselves for who they are without judgement or self-criticism and to stretch out relieve tension and reset the body and mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I am also passionate about creativity and sustainability and believe that when we are being creative, we often enter a mindful, peaceful state of mind, staying present in the moment and helping ourselves to alleviate the stresses and anxieties of everyday life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I believe it is so important to reduce waste and look for ways we can reduce our carbon footprint.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I am currently exploring different ways to repurpose unloved garments and prevent them heading into land fill.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>In an effort to reduce plastic bag waste I have been designing and creating sustainable Bags for Life.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Each bag is recycled from denim jeans and other garments, recycling natural fibres wherever possible. They are all individual in design, durable and washable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I have also been experimenting with hand crafting cards using remnants of fabric and am keenly exploring other upcycling and repurposing projects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">All in all, I love how Yoga and Arts and Crafts blend together, both enable us express ourselves, to clear our minds from clutter and help us to create a calm and more peaceful state of mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">You can view some of my repurposed projects on facebook at Upcycled Designs by Diane Waite or view my yoga website at https:\/\/www.dianewaiteyoga.co.uk<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I teach face to face Hatha Yoga at Birchencliffe Community Centre in Huddersfield and can be contacted via facbook at dianewaiteyoga<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>or email <a href=\"mailto:dianewaite.yoga@gmail.com\"><span class=\"s2\">dianewaite.yoga@gmail.com<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I am also available for one-to-one yoga, or group introduction to yoga bookings.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, I\u2019m Diane, and I am truly excited about joining CollaborARTi.
