Anxiety can overshadow life's joys
It can transform simple pleasures and daily tasks into insurmountable challenges. It lurks in the shadows of your mind, manifesting as racing thoughts, sleepless nights, and physical discomfort. Yet, imagine a space where anxiety no longer holds the reins—a sanctuary where you reclaim your inner peace and vitality. I know, I have been there and this is why I am so passionate about sharing this series of Yoga Therapy for Anxiety.
Why Yoga Therapy for Anxiety
This series transcends the boundaries of traditional yoga classes by offering a deeply personalized experience. Think of it not just as yoga, but as a meticulously crafted protocol tailored specifically for you. It's like a Yoga prescription—encompassing carefully selected poses, breathwork techniques that calm rather than kindle anxiety, meditation practices designed to anchor you in the present, away from the whirlwind of thoughts.
What sets yoga therapy apart is its profound attention to the internal landscape—your emotions, energy, and the essence of who you are beneath the surface. Through the lens of yoga philosophy, we explore paths to expand your self-awareness and transform your relationship with yourself and the world. The goal? To help you interact with your thoughts in a way that brings serenity, to slow the rush of your mind and heart, and to guide your nervous system towards a state of rest and digest.
How is it different than typical yoga classes?
While typical group yoga classes cater to diverse needs with varying focuses, they often skim the surface, emphasizing physical postures over the internal journey. In such settings, you might feel overlooked or even find your anxiety heightened. Our Yoga Therapy Series for Anxiety, however, is designed with the individual in mind. Here, you're not just another participant; you're the focus, embarking on a journey tailored to heal and strengthen from within. By being part of this series, you're not merely attending a class; you're stepping into a transformative process that empowers you to navigate life with a newfound sense of calm, clarity, and resilience. Join us, and let's walk this path of healing together.

What students are saying
“Lauren has an instinctively sensitive and nurturing approach to the practice. She encourages the practitioner to *feel* the value of a posture - more focused on the authenticity- rather than the physical shape- of a posture. She has a very welcoming and humble approach - perfect for a beginner or a seasoned practitioner.”

Meet your guide
Hello, I'm Lauren, a dedicated Holistic Health and Wellness Coach, Yoga and Meditation Teacher, and Yoga Therapist set to graduate in May 2024. My life's work is to support individuals through the ebb and flow of life, equipping them with a resilient toolbox for when the unexpected happens.
My own battle with mental health challenges led me to the transformative power of yoga and holistic health practices. Hitting rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life. Now, my commitment is to share these healing tools with you, to guide you toward a life of balance, happiness, and fulfillment.
My mission is clear: to be a beacon of support and guidance for those yearning for wellness and personal growth, whether you're new to yoga or deepening your practice. I aim to make the journey towards feeling good accessible and fun.
My approach is rooted in the holistic and adaptive traditions of Ashtanga Yoga (the eight-limb path) and yoga therapy. Here, we tailor the practice to suit you, ensuring that yoga serves as a bridge to wellness, not just a physical exercise. It's about carrying the essence of yoga beyond the mat—into every aspect of your life.
I firmly believe in the universality of yoga—its ability to touch lives irrespective of background or experience. My sessions, both private and group, are designed to be inclusive and welcoming, fostering an environment where everyone can find their space and pace.
Together, we will build a comprehensive toolbox that empowers you to care for your well-being, set healthy boundaries, and heal your relationships. This journey is about small, actionable steps that lead to significant transformation.
