Are you looking for ways to de-stress, reverse burnout, relieve anxiety?
Have you ever thought to create your own yoga practice that fits you, your breath, your body, your life rhythm and expression, but not sure how?
WELCOME TO MY LIFE SKILLS YOGA PROGRAM© SITE
Since I first began as a yoga therapist in 2000, there have been numerous advances in several sciences that have been paramount in creating an argument for yoga as a preventive for multiple conditions. In addition, much has been discovered about its potential to reverse many of these. All of this stems from the reality that the majority of medical conditions for which people are prescribed medications today are a byproduct of stress and the chemical reactions our bodies go through as a result of chronic exposure.
We know that stress causes a slew of chemical reactions in the body that increase inflammation-the number one reason for illness in the body. Doesn’t it make sense that by directing our thoughts in ways that improve our outlook, thereby lowering stress and its chemical reactions, that we can be healthier and happier?
For instance, did you know… ?
Yoga therapy has been proven to adjust GABA (mood elevating hormone) naturally and always within levels that meet the needs of the host, without the need for supplements?
Yoga therapy has shown it can help balance melatonin for better sleep
Yoga therapy has been proven to help alleviate anxiety and loneliness, while increasing mental clarity
Yoga therapy has been shown to be able to switch particular cancer genes from “ON” to “OFF”?
Yoga therapy assists in increasing immune system function in the body
Yoga therapy can improve A1C levels in diabetics
All while increasing vitality and resilience in BOTH body and mind, which improves overall quality of life and can lead to greater joy and fulfillment.
This is just the tip of iceberg…
Yoga can’t help anyone who doesn’t practice and many don’t practice because they don’t understand what it is and how to use it for our maximum benefit, regardless of our current physical condition. Yoga IS for everybody.
NO previous yoga experience required!
Are you intimidated by public yoga classes because you can't touch your toes or stand on your head?
Are you turned off by meditation because you can't seem to calm your mind?
GOOD!!!! This program is for you!
I can teach you simple life skills that can help you improve your mental calm and alleviate stress.I can teach you ways to adapt a yoga practice to your body's abilities today that can help you improve immune function and nervous system function, while also improving your strength and flexibility.
I have worked with people from 4 years old to 104, literally! YOGA IS FOR EVERYBODY
So, do any of these statements ring true for you?
I am overwhelmed
I feel I am getting pulled in multiple directions
I feel I am fighting feelings of guilt and resentment
I feel isolated and no one understands
I feel my health and well-being are being affected by stress and burnout
I feel I have no time for myself
I feel reactive to situations often
I GET IT!!
My Mission:
To share the teachings from the ancient traditions of yoga, integrated with simple life style changes that support and encourage each individual’s desire for a peaceful and purposeful life and everyone’s right to live a life of transformation regardless of life conditions or circumstances.
To create a safe space for inner exploration whereby each individual, with guidance, can create their own personalized yoga practice. A practice that, when expressed in service to Self, may include asanas (postures), pranayama (breath), mantras (chanting), mudras (hand/finger postures), drishti (focus), and/or various meditation processes combined with everyday life skills such as forgiveness, reframing of issues, affirmations, and self-care practices. Even everyday things you may already be doing, that when simply done with mindfulness, can determine a satisfying yoga practice you will actually do because you had a role in what it will look and feel like… co-creating a practice that can enhance your life experiences through increased personal awareness.
Take the first step towards supporting yourself and discover how easy it can be to feel better through the transformative properties of Yoga and Meditation, while uncovering the value of adapting simple Life Skills. Find out how, together, we can co-create an individualized program just for YOU, geared towards where you are today, addressing the physical and emotional struggles that YOU face in service to YOUR peace and well-being.
I look forward to meeting you.
