About Gabrielle HarrisGabrielle was a regular columnist for the Yoga Lunchbox in 2012, with her series 'The Suburban Yogini'
Gabrielle discovered yoga after being a body balance teacher and has not looked back. After completing her level 3 training in Australia (2011) as a power vinyasa teacher, she has taught in a variety of locations including corporate and her own private community class. Gabrielle compares her practice to ‘aspirin melting in water’, a steady path to relaxation. She is an avid reader of modern yoga philosophy and likes to bring a bit of this into each class to make it challenging and create a little transformation everytime. You can find her on her website Half Moon Yoga.

Thank you for your honesty and sharing your perspective. As a long-term sufferer of a severe anxiety disorder – albeit one well on the road to recovery – I appreciate hearing your story.
I do think there can be a significant, biological element to anxiety disorders – this has been my experience and that of friends – that nutrition can heal. That said, I do agree that the practice of yoga and being present certainly helps.
i get anxiety attack. I throw up all of the time. I have a pain in my stomach. I cant eat or enjoy my life. Pain attacks me before even i realize.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Yes yoda is absolutely right. ‘only what you take with you’
I will change my attitude towards the thing happening around me.
I can already tell i am becoming a much happier person.
Thank you so much!!
