Hi, I’m Cecilia, the creatrix behind The Pleasure Treasury.

 

The Pleasure Treasury is a sanctuary for self-discovery and embracing your innate capacity for pleasure. I believe that pleasure—especially sexual pleasure—is a birthright. When we reconnect with this essential aspect of ourselves, we unlock the potential for healthier, happier lives, which in turn ripples out to those around us. Here, you’ll explore ways to love yourself deeply, shed layers of shame, and celebrate the magnificent body you inhabit. You are a Kween, an Empress—welcome, Your Vajesty, to your royal domain!

 

The Pleasure Treasury is the culmination of over 12 years of work in women’s health, yoga therapy, menstrual cycle awareness, and more. My journey into this sacred space began after the birth of my daughter in 2008, which marked a profound initiation into a new chapter of my life. Following this experience, I began my transition from a long career teaching English to refugees and asylum seekers in London, Kenya, and Senegal, to immersing myself fully in yoga and women’s well-being.

 

In 2011, I embraced my love for yoga and began training as a yoga teacher. A year later, I discovered Yoga Therapy for Women’s Health (Womb Yoga) with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, which was life-changing. At that time, I had been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome and told I was infertile. But through yoga, menstrual cycle awareness, and stress reduction, I reconnected with my body’s natural rhythms, and my cycle returned to normal.

 

My path has been guided by incredible teachers, including Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, the late Colette Nolan (aka Lady Cunt Love), Lisa Lister, Theodora Wildcroft, Yoli Maya Yeh, and Kimberley Ann Johnson. Their wisdom has informed my approach as a trauma-informed facilitator, committed to creating positive spaces for women.

 

Today, I offer yoga classes in Frome, Somerset, and online, alongside women’s and girls’ circles, and Environmenstrual workshops. I’m also proud to be a tutor with the Yoga Nidra Network, contributing to the Yoni Shakti: Well Woman Yoga Therapy Teacher Training and the Total Yoga Nidra Teacher & Facilitator Training. As Operations Manager at Yoga Nidra Network, I continue to dedicate my life to the well-being and empowerment of women and sharing the power of deep rest.
