Nadine McNeil is no stranger to moments of crisis. A global gallivanter who goes by the moniker Universal Empress online, for nearly two decades, prior to her deep dive into yoga in 2008, Nadine travelled the world in service of the UN, UNICEF, Global Volunteer Network and Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. She was the former UN Chief of Operations in the Central African Republic and UNICEF humanitarian who is now based in Bali as a yoga instructor and personal coach. These and other experiences rooted Nadine’s continued devotion to activism. Founder of the BadAsana Series ©: Yoga with Weights.
Her mission as a yoga teacher, speaker, wisdom mentor and humanitarian is to ignite infinite possibilities in people around the world and share yoga especially with diverse underserved communities. It is this mission that calls her to serve as a global ambassador for Yoga Gives Back. “It was right there at the Sivananda ashram in Kerala, that I witnessed firsthand where, when consciously applied, that the teachings and wisdom of yoga serve as a viable tool for peace, personal and global.”
“When consciously applied, the teachings and wisdom of yoga serve as a viable tool for peace, personal and global. When one of us suffers we all suffer. Yet when one of us heals, we all heal. “
