Meet Your Teacher 


“I spent 2.5 years with patients in end-of-life settings. Being so close to death drained me of my essence. At the end of most days by the bedside, I barely had the energy to stand. This guided relaxation practice healed me when I felt like I had nothing else left to give. I created this course because these are all the tools that I personally used during my time serving in burn, palliative, hospice, and pediatrics. I have curated these particular skills to share with frontliners from my 21 years of studying yoga and other mind-body therapy techniques. These practices help me get back in my body after a long day taking care of others.”
