 5-Week Yoga Series

For Women Ready to Feel Safe in Their Bodies Again

This series is for women currently in psychotherapy or those who will soon start.

Healing doesn't happen only through talking.

Sometimes healing begins with taking one slow breath...softening your shoulders...and discovering that your body no longer has to stay in survival mode.

If you're currently in therapy, you've likely gained insight into your thoughts, emotions, and patterns. But you may still notice that your body hasn't caught up.

You understand your anxiety...yet your shoulders remain tense.

You know your trauma wasn't your fault...yet your nervous system still reacts as though danger is around the corner.

You want to feel calm...but your body doesn't know how to get there.

This is where trauma-informed yoga can become a powerful partner to your therapy journey.

Your Mind Understands. Your Body Needs an Opportunity to Experience Safety.

Stress, trauma, grief, and chronic anxiety don't just affect our thoughts.

They are stored in our nervous system and often show up physically through:

Chronic muscle tension

Pelvic floor tightness or discomfort

Shallow breathing

Difficulty relaxing

Feeling disconnected from your body

Trouble sleeping

Digestive issues

Hypervigilance

Feeling "stuck" even after making progress in therapy

These aren't signs that you're failing.

They're signs that your body has been doing exactly what it was designed to do—protect you.

Together, we'll gently teach your nervous system that it no longer has to remain on high alert.

A Beautiful Complement to Your Therapy

Many therapists help clients develop insight, process emotions, and build healthier ways of thinking.

This yoga series offers a place to practice those skills in your body.

You'll explore how to:

Notice physical sensations without judgment

Build a stronger connection between mind and body

Calm your nervous system through intentional breathing

Increase your window of tolerance

Release chronic tension safely

Improve body awareness

Cultivate self-compassion

Develop practical tools you can use between therapy sessions

Think of this series as giving your body an opportunity to participate in the healing work you've already begun.

What Makes This Different?

This is not a traditional yoga class.

There is no pressure to perform.

No expectation that you keep up with anyone else.

No "perfect pose."

Every class is taught through a trauma-informed lens that honors choice, curiosity, and compassion.

As both a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and certified yoga instructor, I understand how emotional healing and physical healing work together. Every movement, breath, and meditation is intentionally designed to support nervous system regulation and help you reconnect with your body at your own pace.

You are always in charge of your experience.

60 minute classes with a mix of breath work, movement, and stillness.

What We'll Explore Together

Week 1

Safety Before Strength

Creating safety and reconnecting with yourself.

Week 2

Softening What We Hold

Understanding anxiety, chronic tension, and learning to release with compassion.

Week 3

Holding Space for Grief

Honoring loss, transitions, and emotions that often live quietly in the body.

Week 4

Reclaiming Strength Through Compassion

Building stability without force and discovering strength that feels grounded rather than guarded.

Week 5

Living Rooted

Integrating what you've learned and creating sustainable practices to support your continued healing.

Each session includes gentle movement, restorative yoga, breath work, mindfulness practices, guided meditation, and education about the nervous system.

This Series May Be a Great Fit If...

💫   You're currently working with a therapist and want to deepen your healing.

💫   You struggle with anxiety, overwhelm, or chronic stress.

💫   You often feel disconnected from your body.

💫  You notice tension in your jaw, shoulders, hips, or pelvic floor.

💫   You're navigating grief, life transitions, or burnout.

💫   You're looking for gentle, supportive movement rather than an intense workout.

💫   You want practical tools to regulate your nervous system outside of therapy sessions.

What You'll Walk Away With

By the end of five weeks, many participants report:

Feeling calmer and more grounded

Greater awareness of their body's signals

Reduced muscle tension

Increased confidence using breathing techniques during stressful moments

A stronger sense of self-compassion

Improved ability to relax

Practical nervous system regulation tools for everyday life

A deeper connection between the work they're doing in therapy and their daily lives

Healing isn't about becoming a different person.

It's about feeling more at home in the person you've always been.

Imagine Walking Into Your Next Therapy Session...

...already knowing how to slow your breathing.

...already recognizing when your body is beginning to tense.

...already having practiced grounding techniques that help you stay present during difficult emotions.

Instead of spending your entire week in survival mode between sessions, you'll have simple, effective tools to support your healing every day.

This series is for those who are currently in psychotherapy or are ready to begin counseling.
