About this collection
When I work with neurodivergence, trauma, or cognitive decline, we move away from traditional 'fitness' yoga. My sessions prioritize the nervous system over perfect alignment. We use props like bolsters, cushions, and blankets to create physical safety, and we incorporate specific breathing techniques—like Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing)—to ground your energy and focus. This is not about pushing your limits; it is about finding a pace that lets your body feel safe enough to rest, heal, and process.
A Trauma-Informed Approach to Wellness
My practice is built on the understanding that neurological challenges like ADHD, PTSD, and early-stage dementia are often held in the body. When you work with me, we address this by creating a safe container where you are always in control. Whether we are practicing via a 1-on-1 virtual session or following a custom digital plan, the focus remains on regulation and safety.
Supporting Your Specific Needs
- For ADHD: We focus on grounding. Techniques like Tree Pose (Vrikshasana) improve balance and focus, while slow-flow sequences help regulate hyperactivity.
- For PTSD: My approach is strictly trauma-informed. We prioritize restorative poses like Child’s Pose (Balasana) and Legs-Up-the-Wall (Viparita Karani) to activate your parasympathetic nervous system, helping you reclaim a sense of safety and reduce cortisol levels.
- For Cognitive Health: In early-stage dementia support, we use gentle movement and pranayama to increase oxygen-rich blood flow to the brain, supporting neuroplasticity and daily clarity.
Why Virtual Therapy Works
I conduct all sessions online because your home is often the most comfortable environment for healing. You do not need to commute while dealing with anxiety or chronic fatigue. We use everyday household items as props to ensure you can replicate these therapeutic movements safely. My goal is to equip you with a toolkit—breathwork, asana, and mindfulness—that you can rely on long after our session ends. We do not look for quick fixes; we build consistent, daily habits that slowly soothe the nervous system and help you find calm in the midst of chaos.
