My Story

I've loved Jesus since my childhood & followed Him all my life.  But in my 40s, when I was a high school administrator, memories of childhood trauma surfaced & knocked me off balance.  In spite of my faith, I realized that I'd been using alcohol as a way of ignoring the painful messages my body was sending me, my attempt at self-medicating depression, anxiety, and PTSD.  Yoga & meditation became a way to reconnect with my body & heal.  God was healing me through movement and awareness.

So I'm compelled to share what I've learned.  Now 6 years sober, Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) has become my passion.  Research studies have proven over 20 years that Trauma Sensitive Yoga reduces PTSD symptoms, and I'm so happy to hold a space of growth & healing for others.
