About Chelsea...
Yoga Teacher, Naturopath, Holistic Health Writer, Retreat Facilitator, Massage Therapist and World Wanderer. Chelsea's passion lies in helping you to align with your physical, mental and spiritual health through holistic practices. In 2018 Chelsea completed a four-year Bachelor of Health Science Degree in Naturopathy which has provided her with skills and knowledge in nutrition, herbal medicine and lifestyle advice to promote wellbeing. As a naturopath, she combines these modalities to provide a holistic approach and unique treatment plan for individuals on their journey to optimum health. Throughout her studies, yoga was a big part of Chelsea's journey, keeping her grounded. She has had a regular yoga practice since the age of 16 and rolling out her yoga mat has been her steady place to return to while she floats around this earth. In 2017 Chelsea completed a 200hr Yoga Teacher Training at Byron Yoga Centre. Since then, she has taught yoga classes in a number of health retreats throughout Australia, wild workshops in nature, surf camps in Nicaragua, studios in Berlin and retreats in Germany, Czech Republic and Spain. Chelsea combines her knowledge of yoga with natural health to cultivate bodily awareness and hopes to inspire her students to find a deeper aspect of themselves through their practice and to carry this awareness throughout their daily life. As a writer, she also expresses her broad knowledge of holistic health through books, blog articles, and personalized meditation scripts for clients.

What is Third Bird?
In 2019, Chelsea was at the International Yoga Festival in Rishikesh, India where she joined a Satsang with Jamaican Spiritual Teacher, Mooji.
He explained the human states of mind in comparison to three little birds.
The first bird is the busiest, the one that goes bzzz bzzz here and a bzzz bzzz there, collecting things for his nest, for his family, for his friends. His mind is always wondering what he should be doing next.
The second bird sits just above him on a branch, silently observing this first bird. He can watch the first bird in a state of both curiosity and stillness. In mindfulness and meditation our aim is to observe without reaction, to be the second bird.
But what if there was a third bird? The bird that watches the watcher. The one who merges with the divine essence of its surroundings, who cannot be affected by passing thoughts or emotions. Maybe this is not even a bird at all, but a pure state of consciousness, of ecstatic bliss, of union with all aspects of being.
