I look at your meal times, your sleep environment, and your breath quality to identify exactly where your body is losing energy, rather than just treating the symptom. ### Your Daily Habits Are Your Real Medicine Many people come to me looking for a quick fix for back pain or anxiety. I tell them the same thing: yoga is the starting point, but your lifestyle dictates your recovery. If you do yoga for one hour and spend the rest of the day in a high-stress, low-nutrition state, you are cancelling out the work we do. ### The Three Pillars of Your Recovery * **Fueling Your Body:** True nourishment comes from what you eat and how you eat it. For vegetarians, this means understanding real sources of Vitamin B12 like A2 cow milk and fermented foods, rather than relying on pills. We strip away the processed habits to help your gut absorb what it needs. * **Sleep Hygiene:** A good mattress is important, but your sleep quality depends on your brain's state. Removing electronics, managing room temperature, and using specific breathing techniques before bed can change your nervous system from 'fight or flight' to 'rest and digest' mode. * **Environment and Movement:** From the shoes you wear to the way you lift a box, your daily movements determine your spinal health. I teach you how to integrate these small adjustments into your life so your body stays strong outside of our sessions. Healing is a path, not a destination. Whether it is addressing a Vitamin B12 deficiency or fixing a long-standing sleep issue, my approach is to empower you with knowledge. You do not just come to me to practice; you come to learn how to keep yourself healthy. ## About Bodhi School of Yoga I spent twenty years chasing titles in the corporate world, only to realize that real success is found in the health and peace of the people I serve. I am here to help you return to basics—simple food, sound sleep, and a calm mind—because your body deserves better than a quick fix.
