ABOUT ME
I'm Megan Hollis, a 15-year-old girl from the UK. In January 2020 I hit rock bottom with my mental health. I was living with such high levels of anxiety that on some days leaving the house felt like too much. When we went into lockdown things really started to change for me as I began to put more effort into looking after my physical and mental health, by practising yoga and meditation, spending time in nature and getting to know my mind. In May 2021 I decided that I was ready to share my thoughts with the world and so I set up Concentrated Sunshine as a weekly blog sharing my ideas and giving advice. In September 2021 I decided to take on my biggest challenge yet, training to be a yoga teacher. It has taught me more than I ever expected, not just about yoga but about who I am as a person- it has been truly transformational. I can't wait to share all lots of yoga classes with you all!
The story
I started Concentrated Sunshine as a weekly blog in May 2021so I could share all of my thoughts and ideas with the world. I never expected the response it received and I am still constantly amazed by all the support I get! In August 2021 I launched the Concentrated Sunshine Virtual Retreat which was utterly incredible. We had wonderful teachers such as Marius Lepure and Cordelia Simpson delivering exceptional classes to lots of people over Zoom! I felt so incredibly proud that weekend. More recently, I completed my yoga teacher training and have begun to share classes on my YouTube channel. We have grown to a community of over 160 followers on Instagram and 150 email subscribers, I really couldn't be happier with what Concentrated Sunshine has evolved to become, but of course there is always a weekly blog post- just the way it started.
