Recently received certification by the International Association of Yoga Therapists. (C-IAYT).
During viniyoga teacher & therapist training I learned body awareness and created new movement patterns which led to the healing of my chronic low back pain and sciatica. Chronic migraine headaches completely stopped once I learned and practiced breathing with awareness which led to stress reduction. I then felt clear and grounded to conceive and carry a child with pleasure & ease using the many yoga tools to support this extraordinary process. Beginning in 2006, I established a yoga teaching & therapy practice and I see private clients in my home and in their homes on a regular basis. I continue to work with AVI by attending Gary's yoga conferences, having phone consultations with Clare Collins and Mirka Kraftsow & editing filmed training case studies. Locally I study and practice mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) with retired neurologist Gus Castellanos integrating body scans and mindful practices with yoga teachings.
