About | Nicola Jane Hobbs, MSc.
I'm a slightly hippie, super geeky, writer, researcher, and coach. I have a Master's degree in Psychology and specialise in eating and exercise psychology, am a qualified Nutritionist and certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. I teach yoga internationally and write books, blogs, and articles about the things that really matter (love, freedom, healing, mental health, personal growth, yoga, nutrition, fitness...). I live in Brighton, UK, by the sea.

I love handstands, falafels, daisies, old books, sunsets, psychology, trampolines, turmeric, coffee, clouds, anatomy, movement, bad jokes, massive scarves, naps, blueberries, the ocean, 3am conversations when hearts are open and walls are down, cream teas, pigeon pose, flowers growing in the cracks of pavements, starry nights, big old trees, and poems that make your heart skip a beat.

I love hugging, twisting, cooking, dancing, healing, stretching, writing, growing, meditating, wandering, learning, creating, listening, belly breathing, day dreaming, discovering new words, eating breakfast for dinner, and making my body my home. 

I love doing the the stuff that only I can do. And I love helping people do the stuff that only they can do. I love helping people find trust in their body, in themselves and in the world. I love teaching people to handstand, to move better, to breathe deeper, to truly nourish themselves. I love helping people to grow stronger and braver. To share their story. To find their voice. To find their freedom.
