Wandering Yogini Wellness- Massage, Yoga, Sound Therapy

Nurture your body, mind and spirit.

Hi, I’m Leanne, founder of The Wandering Yogini Wellness. My journey into healing began with a deep longing to understand myself and reconnect with something deeper. Through Ashtanga yoga, I found a doorway- a practice that helped me release, realign, and gently guide myself back to my true nature.

This path led me to travel through India and across Asia, where I immersed myself in different healing traditions and studied practices rooted in yoga, bodywork, and holistic wellbeing. These experiences ignited something within me, building a sense of confidence I had long been searching for and encouraging me to follow my heart more fully.

Since then, my journey has continued to evolve through the exploration of the emotional, physical, and mental bodies via yoga, deep tissue massage, Thai massage, and sound healing. Alongside my travels and training in Asia, I am also level 3 Sports massage qualified, blending western knowledge with a more intuitive and holistic approach to healing.

This ongoing exploration is what inspires my work today: to hold space for others to reconnect, restore balance, and come home to themselves.

Signature treatment: A Resonant Release

A fusion of massage & sound therapy.

What clients say:

Steve Ransome

Leanne provides a proper deep tissue massage. I needed some serious prodding after weeks at the gym and not stretching. If you need knots removing, then I can highly recommend. I'm standing straighter than I have in months. I will be booking back in soon.

Dean Burdon

Had a deep tissue massage to begin improving some long running back pain issues. Expertly done by Leanne along with a lovely conversation - felt much more movement than I have done for a long while. Some people have a lovely combination of talent and spirit; Leanne is one of those. Would recommend to anyone.

I think a lot of people give up on meditation because they think they’re ‘bad’ at it the moment random thoughts appear or it’s too hard. And yes it is hard! But having thoughts during meditation is completely normal. We all have them.

The practice isn’t about forcing the mind to become instantly silent. It’s about noticing when the mind wanders and gently returning back. Again and again and again.

Some days meditation feels easy and peaceful. Other days it feels like sitting down and having an argument with yourself.

But over time if you stick with it, the mind starts to quieten quickly, the gaps between thoughts become bigger and the itchy nose every few minutes stops 😂

And then you start to observe more ✨

I think that’s why meditation is called a practice. Not perfection.

Who can relate? 😆

I’ve always been obsessed with the lotus flower (as you can tell I can’t stop taking photos of them) 🥰

Rooted deep in the mud, growing through dark and murky water and yet still rising to the surface untouched and beautiful opening itself towards the light.

Each day walking past them in Thailand, I’d notice them blooming wide open in the sun. Then by evening, the petals would gently close again, like they had taken what they needed from the day before retreating back into themselves.

In Buddhism and many Eastern traditions the lotus symbolises spiritual awakening, resilience, purity, and what’s often called ‘the jewel within the lotus’. The idea that even through suffering, challenge, confusion, and the messiness of life there is still something sacred and beautiful within us waiting to emerge.

Human life is very similar.

We all go through shitty periods- Pain, heartbreak, uncertainty, loss, feeling stuck, lost, disconnected. The muddy waters of life eh!

But the lotus doesn’t grow despite the mud- it grows because of it. And i think we do too 😊

And maybe, like the lotus, we are not meant to stay open all the time either. There is wisdom in opening ourselves to life when we can, taking in what we need, and then gently closing again to rest, protect, and simply be 🪷

Finitoooo 🙏🏻

I’m a little emosh closing this chapter because it became so much more than just learning more massage techniques.

Over these weeks, this little routine became part of daily life. Leaving our shoes outside the classroom each morning. Washing feet before practice. Learning, touch, patience, and so many moments of confusion 😂 and of course laughter along the way.

The graduation ceremony and lunch felt incredibly special and shows how much warmth and generosity exists within Thai culture- there’s so much respect, tradition, and heart that’s brought into these practices.

I came here wanting to deepen my understanding of bodywork, but I’m leaving with a much deeper appreciation for slowness, presence, and the healing that exists in human touch and connection.

Very grateful for this experience, for my teachers, the people I met along the way, and this beautiful chapter in Thailand 🧡

Khob khun ka 🙏🏼

This is Tok Sen, a traditional Northern Thai treatment that uses rhythmic tapping, vibration, and sound along the bodies energy lines (Sen lines)

It looks unusual, sounds unusual, and definitely isn’t something everyone will have seen before.

There’s a lot to be said about these traditional ancient healing methods that have been passed down through generations.

There’s something about the rhythm and vibration that’s really calming. The treatment feels meditative, both to give and receive.

Travelling and studying in Asia keeps reminding me that healing exists in so many different forms across cultures. Long before wellness trends, expensive retreats, and modern treatments, people were already finding ways to care for the body through touch, sound, movement, herbs, and energy 🙏🏻

More info to come soon 🧡

One thing I didn’t expect from Thai massage training… is how much my yoga practice would actually benefit me with it.

The flexibility, mobility, and body awareness genuinely makes a HUGE difference. And even with this… it’s still exhausting 🥵 😂

There’s something so comforting about this lady.

Every day she stands here alone, cooking meal after meal for people passing through. And somehow, despite doing this all day she still greets everyone with a lovely smile, and this caring grandma energy (maybe that’s why I love her) haha

This pad thai cost only £1.14 and alongside that she genuinely wants to make sure you’re fed, happy, and okay before you leave.

Travelling can sometimes feel overstimulating, unfamiliar, and constantly moving. So when I receive warmth from strangers it’s really comforting. I guess it shows how comforting simple human care can be. No big gestures but just kindness and someone making food for another person with love 🥰

Both speak the same language only one asks you to listen inward and the other asks you to listen through touch. Which for me makes them pair beautifully.

Both are studies of breath, tension, energy, resistance, letting go, and presence.

I love working with the body- this whole practice is becoming a perfect synergy ✨

You know when you get a completely free day and instead of feeling relaxed, you just feel restless, or like you should be doing something?

Travelling has been making me notice this a lot lately.

The moment I have nowhere to be, no plans, no purpose for the day (this one is the big one) I almost feel uncomfortable. Like I need to fill the space with productivity, movement, conversation, coffee shops, plans… anything really 😂

Many of us are so conditioned to constantly needing a goal, a task, or a reason to feel ‘useful’- as if simply existing for a moment isn’t enough.

But that discomfort is the lesson. Because the second life gets less busy the mind starts searching for noise. And having nothing to do has stripped away so much of the usual structure and routine that I can see these patterns more clearly than ever.

I’ve noticed myself thinking I need some purpose for my day. But maybe our purpose is just to simply enjoy life? I think it’s really that simple 🧡

Basic and professional Thai massage completed 🙏🏻

Hats off to the Thai ladies that do this all day long… exhausting 😂

The past few weeks have been full of learning, unlearning, body mechanics, deep stretches, and using the breath properly.

For now, I’m taking a short break before continuing with further learning and deepening the practice even more. A little space to integrate everything I’ve learned before stepping into the next chapter.

Grateful for the teachers and the practice 🙏🏻

Travel is something that really shows me the importance of yoga off the mat. Yes, it has its benefits on the mat, but yoga is very little to do with touching your toes.

It’s in the conversations with strangers, the moments things don’t go to plan, the humility of being a student again, as well as learning patience in new cultures, new places, and new ways of living.

The mat can teach discipline, strength and focus.
But life outside the mat teaches surrender, trust, compassion and presence.

Anyone can practice yoga for one hour a day (or more if you’re an Ashtangi 😂)

But the challenge is practicing it in everyday life 🌏

What’s moved me the most since being in Thailand is definitely the people; their politeness, kindness, and love/care they put into everything is something so special 🥰

The way they fold the laundry into cute little parcels (that I couldn’t replicate if I tried 😂), the flowers to decorate the food or water, the way you’re greeted when you walk in a room.

Everyday I watch this beautiful older lady chop and separate these plants to then dry out and place in bowls as a room fragrance- it’s these little details which would be seen as a chore in the western world.

Yes, every culture has its struggles and pressures, but it’s very obvious that a slower, more present way of living brings so much more happiness. And each time I immerse myself in this, I want to bring a little piece of that back home with me ✨

Travel is continuously my biggest teacher ✨🙏🏻

As I move into week 2 of my training I’m feeling so grateful to be learning here in.

There’s something about learning it where it actually comes from that feels different.

And that’s just not just about technique (of course this is amazing), but it’s the small things like the breathing, the rhythm, the way you move, the prayers, the tradition behind it all.

Breathing into each movement where it becomes meditative, taking your time and being fully present with the person in front of you. And all of it is just as important.

I was thinking about it earlier and i thought; this isn’t just something you do to someone, but it’s something you share 🥰

And I feel really lucky to be able to learn it in its most authentic form 🙏🏻

We suffer not because of who people are but because of who we expect them to be.

We expect others to show up with the same heart, the same kindness or thoughtfulness that we would give. We expect them to respond how we would, to give what we would give, to care the same way we do. And then when they don’t we feel hurt and disappointed at that person.

But the truth of it is- they’re not you! So don’t expect them to be.

They don’t have your lens, your perspective or your way of loving- And that doesn’t make them wrong or bad people it just makes them different to you.

We’re not all going to be the same are we?

This is something I’ve had a lot of growth with recently and it actually brings a lot of peace once you can get your head around it.

The suffering comes from the gap between the expectation and reality. That moment you release the need for others to be like you we can then begin to have more understanding- for acceptance and peace.

I think the real work here is learning to accept people where they are, but without abandoning yourself in the process 🧡

At the end of a Thai massage, there’s a short prayer recited for the person you’ve just worked with.

For them to be happy, and for any pain in the body to be released

‘We pray for the one whom we touch, that they will be happy, and all pain will be released from him’

This one i haven’t quiteeee mastered yet 😂😂

I love starting my day with this little ritual 🥰

In Thailand and other parts of Asia, feet are washed before a massage as a cultural sign of respect, cleanliness, and spiritual preparation.

Because the feet are considered the lowest and ‘dirtiest’ part of the body, washing them symbolises removing physical dirt and negative energy before a session.

There’s something really meaningful behind it and I really appreciate it. A way to cleanse, and arrive into the moment.

In the school I’m learning, they prepare a beautiful foot bath with water, flowers and herbs such as kafir lime and turmeric- all prepared with care by a lovely older lady.

A moment of presence before touch 🧡 There’s something really beautiful in that.

Today I start Thai massage training here in Thailand. There’s something really humbling about being a beginner again and not having a clue , not getting it right straight away, having to slow down and really learn.

Excited (and slightly out of my comfort zone)

I’ll share the journey along the way 🧡

Solo travel for me is about meeting the version of yourself you’ve been too distracted to notice.

Plans fall apart, buses missed, the language barrier… and still you make it work.

You learn to trust people fully- Strangers who become friends within hours and then feels like a lifetime… who remind you that kindness exists everywhere if you’re fully open to it.

You break through so many barriers. The fear of being alone, of doing things ‘wrong’ or trying things alone that you never thought you could.

And you meet the most important person along the way- yourself!

No roles, no expectations, no labels. Just you fully present. And it’s not that you ‘find’ yourself- you just remember who you are.

It’s of course not easy. It’s messy, uncomfortable, and can be lonely at times as well as super intense… But that’s exactly where the magic is.

When you can stand fully on your own you realise you were never missing anything to begin with 🦋

I don’t have bad time management… I just have a very optimistic relationship with time.

Arrived 45 minutes early feeling like a new woman.
Calm, organised and thriving. So naturally I decided to go get an iced cappuccino because I thought I had ages.

I did not have ages because I didn’t factor in the walk back to the ferry….

Next minute I’m running, heart racing, bags flying, trying to act calm like I’m not about to miss it.
Somehow made it with seconds to spare.

I used to think this was me being chaotic…
but I’m starting to realise my brain just works a little differently.

Even when I’m early I end up being late 🤷

There is no in between.

ADHD things….

Please tell me I’m not alone in this? 😂

I’ve needed to rest and slow down more than I even realised.

For the past 8 months I’ve been building something that I’m genuinely proud of. Showing up, creating, working, pushing myself and it’s been so worth it.

But now that I finally have the space to slow down, i’m finding it really uncomfortable to do so 🤷‍♀️ Waking up thinking ‘right, what can I go see today? or where can I go today and what can I do?’

I think when you’re used to being busy, doing nothing almost feels wrong- Like you should be productive. But more space and a slower pace is actually the thing needed most.

Not just to rest physically, but to come back to myself, and notice how I actually feel without distraction. This has been big one for me.

It’s also a reminder of how easy it is to get stuck in that loop of constant doing… and how important it is to step out of it.

Balance isn’t something we talk about once and achieve forever, it’s something we have to keep returning to- noticing when we’re falling out and then returning back.

Taking time out is needed- and is good for the soul 🧡

Looking back at little me, it was all I knew.

But I’m proud of how far I’ve come. Healing this stuff is hard, messy, and uncomfortable… but I promise you it’s worth it 🧡

And it’s only when I slow down and sit in stillness that the clarity comes.

Meditation is so important for self work because it creates space to observe your thoughts, emotions, and patterns. It helps you become aware of the unconscious habits and process past experiences.

Through regular practice you strengthen your mind and develop emotional resilience which is then where we can grow 🌱

Balance isn’t something you just find… it’s something you train.

The real work here for me is the control coming out-
bringing the legs through without rushing,
collapsing or letting the mind switch off.

Because actually the control doesn’t just come from the body, it comes from training the mind to stay present when it would rather rush and escape the effort! I notice how my mind tries to bring my legs through quickly just to get it over and done with 😂

Consistency and repetition is the practice… And the mind leads it ✨🧡

Going raw and feral straight from the coconut… no straw, no problem 🥥

It sounds like such a small thing, but when you travel through parts of Asia, you realise how much single-use plastic is everywhere. Straws, bags, packaging… it all adds up fast.

And the truth is, most of it doesn’t get recycled. It ends up in the ocean, on beaches, or burned into the air people breathe (which I’ve see with my own eyes plenty 😢)

So yeah… I’ll happily dribble coconut water down my chin if it means one less piece of plastic.

And bringing awareness is key here- as well as small choices, made consistently.

When you say no to a straw, you’re not just reducing waste- you’re also educating/showing that we don’t need it.

So even if it doesn’t seem a big deal in the moment- it’s the only way change starts 🌏

Wat Pho might be the most beautiful temple I’ve visited yet!

The golden reclining Buddha was stunning, and I was in bonsai heaven 🥰

Also super cool to see the birthplace of Thai massage which is in the grounds itself! It was definitely the best massage I’ve ever had!

Love gets named in many moments…
in beginnings, in staying, and even in endings.

But if it depends on someone else, it will always feel uncertain.

It has to be something you root within yourself… just like this beautiful lotus flower roots itself within the mud.

You must become love itself ❤️ That way, no matter who enters or leaves your life,
you don’t lose your sense of wholeness ✨
