I would like to acknowledge or deep gratitude and respect for the ancient traditions of India & Greater Asia, in which I have been able to learn these sacred teachings from. I acknowledge my privilege of being able to source masterful teachers and teachings which have enabled me to practice and infuse myself in this work I am so passionate about. I practice them with great reverence and respect for what has been gifted to me. 

I offer my gratitude to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island People, the traditional owners and custodians of this land, and extend my respect to their Elders, past and present. We are grateful to live, move and create on their very beautiful land that is the majesty of Great Nature.

I offer my heartfelt gratitude to Chantelle Malone from Chantelle Malone Creative who is the brilliance behind the artwork, photography and graphics for Presence.

I reiterate my privilege to have studied with such masterful teachers. The following women have been incredibly important in sharing their life's work with me. Dana Flynn of Laughing Lotus Yoga. Ivy Ray for her mentorship in life and Katonah Yoga. Diane Long for inspiring me with the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli and Debby Badger for my ongoing studies in Vedic Chanting.

To Kristen & Lauren who have encouraged and inspired me to create this work for practical home practice. 

Thank you for practicing and supporting this work, it is very appreciated. 

Namo namaha

With humility and respect, I honour you
