                "description": "I am Celia Roberts, a Senior yoga teacher and therapist with Yoga Australia and Meditation Australia, and among other qualifications, I have a Bio-Medical Science degree.My education and experience combined has brought me to a place where, above all else, I believe in offering you the highest quality education. This is done through continually revisiting and reinvestigating research, resources, values, and touchstone delivery of teaching in the field of yoga, meditation, and mind-body medicine.I am inspired by truth, trust, connection, education, mindful living and people from all walks of life. Moreover, I am passionate about the ongoing development of BIYOME’s innovative, evidence-based yoga and meditation teacher training programme, tracing classical Yoga, Vedic and Buddhist meditation from its ancient historical origins to now. The constantly emerging research heavily supports these ancient traditions, and the BioMedical Institute of Yoga and Meditation, BIYOME (bi-yo-me), is here to reveal the light behind these wisdom traditions.Experiencing the benefits of Yoga and Lifestyle Medicine both personally and professionally, Celia Roberts has seen many yoga teacher training students transformed in their own practice and commitment to health and well-being. As such, Celia has dedicated herself over the past two decades to enhancing compassionate education and innovation within the Lifestyle Medicine industry.Beginning her journey by setting up international health communities, Celia gained immense knowledge and understanding of many cultures and the ability to build compassionate rapport with all those she works with. Moreover, Celia began to recognise the need to focus on therapies that brought together complete understanding of the body and mind. As such, Celia Roberts began her first teacher training group in her own country home with 20 students and not long after she initiated teaching a second group in Toowoomba. Celia’s journey continued as the co-founder of YIMI – the Yoga and Integrative Medicine Institute, promoting health and well-being as the Head Senior Teacher and Supervising Mentor for the institute.

Over the years, Celia has also worked as a volunteer in leadership roles for the national governing body of yoga in Australia, Yoga Australia; these include the Queensland State Co-ordinator and Chair of The Yoga Australia Conference 2016. Celia has also been instrumental in the innovative field of yoga therapy within Australia, being a valued member of the AAYT committee 2014-15.

Moreover, with qualifications in Biomedical Science, meditation, Ayurveda, nutrition and dietetics, psychosomatic medicine, counselling, and integrative medicine, and with her love and dedication for yoga teacher training, Celia Roberts opened the Upper Brookfield Retreat Centre in 2014.
