Restore Balance
I am a certified MindBody Centering yoga teacher with additional training and earned credentials in healthy lifestyle coaching, somatic-informed pilates, children yoga, and nutrition; and provide private classes and healthy lifestyle coaching to adults, children, and families at clients' homes, scenic sites, beautiful parks, spas, fitness centers, and retreats.
While there are hundreds of variations in style, the yoga I practice and share with others is soft, yet holistic and spiritually empowering considering mind, body, and spirit. It involves observing thoughts, emotions, and feelings without judgment; the art of attention to intention; the idea of choice; the ideas of comfort, ease, enthusiasm, aliveness, and joy as guides; and the idea of intention to finding meaning, purpose, belonging, transcendence, and agency for crafting a life story that matters.
Yoga, from the Sanskrit for Union, is a 5,000+-year-evolved preventative medicine balancing practice that offers a holistic approach to wellbeing. The physical postures (Asanas) and breathing techniques (Pranayamas) that we westerners are the most familiar with, are proven methods to connect mind and body with the aim of achieving the balanced conditions that are the most beneficial for meaningful intentional contemplation, self-study/reflection (Svadhyaya), meditation, and creativity.
Yoga is a wellness practice that pays attention to the whole self: mind, body, and spirit. Whatever challenges you face, whatever body type you have, there is unlimited potential for you to find empowerment through the practice of yoga. It will increase your awareness of the body-mind connection, of your nature as part of nature, of other living beings, and of life force.
