I specialize in working with students who have musculoskeletal pain…pain that affects the muscles, tissues, tendons, ligaments and bones, as well as the psychological effects of living with chronic pain…stress, anxiety, and depression. In over a decade of teaching I’ve had numerous clients find that yoga has improved some of their symptoms. They have seen a decrease in their pain response, anxiety and stress level, an increase in mobility, flexibility, strength and balance, and experience a more restful nights sleep.
While creating this website (my first), I was assisted by WordPress technical support. I noticed on one email, after the person’s name was their job title, “Happiness Engineer”. Couldn’t we all use a Happiness Engineer, and not just for website construction! It got me to thinking, when someone asks me what I do, I usually answer, “Yoga teacher”. If they are not yogis themselves, they usually think I spend my day showing students how to twist into pretzels and balance on their hands or head. But, yoga is not just about the physical, the shapes you make with your body. There is so much more you can gain from the practice, if you are open to receiving. I think from now on when someone asks me what I do, I will answer, “I am a Wellness Engineer”. This is a more suitable description of how yoga can give you the capacity to live a fulfilled life at any age!
As your “Wellness Engineer“. My approach is to utilize different styles of yoga – Viniyoga, Kundalini Yoga, Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, meditation, breathing techniques, and deep relaxation to address all aspects of a healthy lifestyle. I have taken extensive training and specialty certifications to enable me to work safely with people with injuries, limitations, and other health complications.
