After a rather innocuous fall, resulting in a broken spine, 3 prolapsed discs and a dislocated pelvis, doctors discovered she had a severe degenerative disc disease and was told she would never be able to do any form of high impact or heavy load exercise again. So she focussed instead on yoga, meditation and her mindset. Within a few months it became apparent that the benefits she gained from practising yoga would not just be physical, but mental. Within 6 months, Alex was stronger physically and mentally than ever before.  While she now still endures pain, it is manageable, predominantly, she feels, as a result of having a new positive relationship with her body. She went on to train as a teacher in India and has since travelled the world teaching yoga in some wonderful places. She has also written and created 6 top selling beginners yoga dvds, and reached #1 on the Amazon UK fitness charts.Alex is also a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist and combines her love and knowledge of the holistic world with psychotherapy. She created the Mindset Group Ltd and runs a yearly, very popular wellbeing festival in Wokingham as well as many other wellbeing events -  Upcoming events: 1st Feb - Unfiltered Sessions: Winter Reset at South Hill Park, Bracknell, Berkshire For more info www.mindsetunlimited.co.uk www.alexandralegouix.comStay Connected:Follow Oliver on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yeskingoliverWant to regain control of your life from modern-day stress, anxiety, and influence?Check out my FREE course - take control!     http://www.talkwitholiver.com#Tagsself improvement, Time Management, Motivation, mental health, Financial Literacy, Growth Mindset, Personal Development, philosop
