Yoga Therapy

“The mind is like the wind and the body like the sand: if you want to know how the wind is blowing, you can look at the sand.” -Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen

Neuroscience is now validating what yogis and meditators have known for centuries: that mindfulness, meditation, and yoga are powerful and complementary tools to clinical settings that help regulate mood and overall wellbeing. Yoga Therapy can be done on or off the mat (based on clients’ access) and will include a combination of talk therapy and:

  • Meditation: The practice of moving your attention away from distracting thoughts and coming back to the present moment. This involves sitting on a chair, cushion, or mat with guided practice.

  • Yoga: Basic body postures that can be done on a chair or on a mat to empower clients to self regulate and increase feelings of self efficacy over one’s body, thoughts, and actions.

  • Pranayama: Breathing exercises to help change one’s state of energy.

    Fees: $225.00 per 1.5 hour (75 minute) sessions

Private Yoga Class

“Yoga is the perfect opportunity to be curious about who you are.” -Jason Crandell

Many seek private yoga instruction for a more personal and focused practice that fits with their schedule. A carefully constructed practice of postures linked to breath is specifically created just for you, with your needs in mind. Focus can be on supporting chronic pain, injury, emotional issues, and/or other conditions. Expect to learn about your body, heal imbalances, and build on your strengths. Where do you hold stress? What will support your overall stability? How can we help create home practices for your continued growth?

These 60 minute sessions are for beginners up to advanced students, and can be taught one-on-one, in twos, or small groups of friends and/or family members. I offer sessions on Zoom or at clients’ homes who are in the Bay Area.

Fees: $100 for 60 minute sessions online and $150 for 60 minute sessions with travel to the clients’ home. Please contact me for more details.
