Upcoming Experiences
Relax and reset your mind with a 4 week online Yoga Nidra series for better stress regulation!
Yoga Nidra for Regulation is a 4-week experience designed to support your nervous system in settling without forcing calm, shutting down, or “doing it right.”
This series blends:
guided Yoga Nidra practices
accessible nervous system science
and a steady, supportive container for deep rest and integration
You’ll learn how regulation feels in your body — not as a concept, but as a lived experience you can return to.
This series is for you if:
You feel chronically stressed, wired, or exhausted
Rest doesn’t come easily, even when you slow down
You want to understand why Yoga Nidra works, not just follow along
You’re curious about nervous system regulation in a gentle, non-clinical way
You want practices you can return to again and again
No prior experience with Yoga Nidra is needed.

Services Offered
Somatic Healing provides a supportive place for clients to explore their edge. Clients may be able to go deeper into mental or physical spaces that they may not be able to access on their own. Typically this is done with hands on work and positioning in conjunction with the breath although touch-free sessions are available. No experience is needed for a somatic healing body psychology session.
Integral breath therapy uses specific breathing techniques to clear out stored energetic experiences in our bodies, minds, and spirits. Integral breath therapy moves the practitioner into an altered state of consciousness while being supported and guided by the facilitator. This practice can clear out birth trauma, free the self from past experiences, and clear stored emotional blockages. This is a practice not to be missed! Please look on the registration page for details and contraindications.
