Bio
My Approach to Yoga Therapy
I define Yoga Therapy as a process that empowers individuals to maintain or restore optimal health and overall well being by applying the practice and philosophy of yoga. Yoga is an ancient system for achieving clarity of mind by removing our obstacles to clear perception; it is an integrated approach that connects the body, breath and mind while considering the environment of the individual and treating the whole person, not just the disease or a specific ache or pain. I believe every person has the ability to reveal and transform their own experiences. Yoga teaches that the answers are within the Self. My approach is to act as the conduit for the answers to emerge and then develop an individual program to achieve one’s own systemic balance.
