A caring and safe online space supporting your wellbeing through
Somatic Movement - Gentle Yoga - Modern Breath Work and Mindful Meditation
Welcome Dear Soul!
Do you yearn for a slower and deeply nourishing heart centered practice? A practice that honors your unique mind and body and stage of life that you're in? An intelligent practice that is centered around working with the nervous system for structural integration and relief from chronic tension and pain? A practice that compassionately brings you home to your true sacred self?
I am excited to share with you an online community to practice yoga in a way that honors your unique mind/body and stage in life. This, along with connecting to a supportive community of students and teachers from all over the world that too desire this type of slower, integrated and accessible practice.
The pace of our lives and the state of our world can be dizzying..... self-care is essential. Step inside a caring and nourishing community that compassionately grounds you and ignites your resilience. Looking forward to seeing you inside the community!
With Gratitude,
Lynne

"In my experience, what Lynne offers is completely unique...such a powerful integrative experience of mind, body and spirit! Even online, I experience Lynne as a teacher like no other! It’s not only her depth of knowledge and experience, but the way in which she is to invite, share, and draw others into that experience. She presents with such professionalism and expertise, and yet at the same time is so gentle, humble, authentic and approachable. Her presence, pace, tone, clarity and precision of language, guidance and instruction make everything so personal and accessible. Lynne has heart and passion for what she shares with a generous spirit. All of this combines in such a unique way as to create an experience that is truly therapeutic, healing, wholesome, nourishing, pure, life-giving."

The Foundation of My Work
The Essential Self-Care Online Community is a culmination of over two decades of studying and teaching embodied practices and my deep desire to inspire others to care for and love their sacred being. Now more than ever, I feel that it is time to offer this online community ....this calm inner circle to share embodied wisdom and grow together without distractions, held outside of social media- held without competition or judgement. It comes at a time that we collectively need a safe haven to explore soul-nourishing tools.
My core principles that guide me personally and professionally:
All Life is Sacred
This principle on its own...is enough.
Awareness/Inquiry
The capacity to be the listener.
Kind curiosity.
Compassion/Non-Judgment
For yourself and all beings.
Non-Attachment
Letting go. Freedom.
Courage
It will take courage to live the
other five principles.
Seeing Ones Self as Relative to the Whole
You are not alone.
