About Me
I’m Jennifer Cray, an earth-loving yoga and meditation teacher passionate about supporting others to cultivate calm, connection, and wellbeing through mindful living.
While I officially began teaching meditation in January 2020, my connection to yoga and meditation began much earlier. As a young girl, I vividly remember being guided on meditation journeys amongst the clouds during drama classes. Even then, I recognised the healing powers of slowing down, using imagination, and connecting to a deeper sense of calm. Throughout my life, the calling to yoga has been consistent and persistent, planting seeds that continue to grow and shape the path I walk today.
What began as a natural curiosity evolved into a dedicated journey of study, practice, and teaching. I have trained in Meditation as Lifestyle Medicine, Kundalini Yoga, Pranayama, Yoga Nidra, Sound Therapy, Restorative Yoga and Yoga & Ayurveda Self-Realisation. These modalities allow me to offer an integrated approach that supports physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.
I believe that what we learn on the mat, reconnecting with ourselves and cultivating lasting inner peace, can support us to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease. My teaching combines ancient wisdom with practical, accessible tools that can be applied in everyday life, making these transformative practices available to people from all backgrounds and experience levels.
As a lifelong student, I continue to deepen my knowledge through ongoing study, personal practice, and professional development. My intention is to create welcoming and supportive spaces where individuals can explore mindfulness, movement, breathwork, relaxation, and self-discovery at their own pace.
Conscious Calm Cushions
My love of yoga and meditation extends beyond teaching and into creating beautiful, sustainable props that support practice and reflect conscious values.
While training as a meditation teacher, I searched for a meditation cushion that felt inspiring and aligned with my personal style. The options available were mostly plain and uninspiring, so I made my own. It quickly attracted attention, and before long I was sewing cushions for fellow students and teachers.
Today, Conscious Calm Cushions offers yoga practitioners an original, sustainable, and hygienic choice of yoga props. We lovingly create eye pillows, zafus, and bolsters using new, but excess or unwanted fabrics and fill them with offcuts or organic products sourced from Australian farms. Each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted to support both your practice and the planet.
For me, Conscious Calm Cushions is a reflection of the same values that guide my teaching: mindfulness, sustainability, creativity, community, and conscious living.
