During my teenage years, I was introduced to yoga as a way to combat the challenges of anxiety and depression. This sacred and ancient practice nurtured me with so much grace, compassion, and patience. In my early twenties, I joined my first yoga studio and very quickly found community which held me in the same way this practice did. Through breath and movement, I developed a deeper connection between mind, body, and spirit. 

As a Palestinian woman in the diaspora, the ability to find joy in the midst of suffering is something I have become accustomed to quite well. Through yoga and the guidance of my teachers, I have acquired the tools to remain anchored in this joy, even when it feels impossible to find. 

In the Eight Limbs of Yoga, Samadhi is the final limb, translating to bliss in Sanskrit. When the mind, body, and spirit harmoniously become one, Samadhi is achieved. This universal consciousness within is the first step in achieving universal liberation as a collective. 

Through Studio Samadhi, my desire is to pass along these tools to help you stay rooted within as the world continues to change. I hope to guide you in finding universal internal consciousness which will ultimately contribute to universal collective liberation. 

Samadhi within, Samadhi beyond. 

I’m so grateful we found each other,
and I can’t wait to work with you!

Sending you my love,
Hadeel
