LYB Mindset Facilitator

About me: I aspire to help people use mindful yoga to lead a more balanced and fulfilling life. Striving to provide an environment where students feel safe and at peace, my classes are accessible and welcoming to everyone. An asana practice is a very subjective experience and students are encouraged to find their own expression of the postures according to their abilities and needs.

Why LYB: I was first introduced to LYB at PranaShanti Yoga Centre, a local yoga studio in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I was inspired by LYB's mission of changing the culture around traumatic brain injury healing through community, yoga, and meditation. In August 2019, I successfully completed the LYB Yoga Teacher Training at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health and became a proud LYB partner and supporter.

Superhero: My Higher Self, for reminding me that I am enough.
