An integrated holistic-health approach combining the ancient science of yoga with the most transformative wellness tools:
- Breathwork and meditation/mindfulness techniques to balance emotions, regulate depleted energy, enhance focus, and expand self-awareness for overall well-being.
- Yoga postures/sequences and functional movement to free tension in the body and to develop endurance for increased strength and flexibility.
- Restorative Yoga for deep relaxation in a restful practice of opening the body through passive poses and stretching for longer durations using props like yoga blocks, blankets, and bolsters.
- Yoga Nidra or yogic sleep induced by guided meditation allows for the mind and body to be in a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping. By quieting over stimulation of daily stress responses, Yoga Nidra creates the capacity for healing and renewal.
- Emotional energy balancing and release techniques to identify limiting patterns, transform overwhelming stress, and allow for an increase of emotional awareness.
Whether you are just beginning a wellness journey, looking to enhance your current practice, or recovering from a previous injury, an integrative yoga program can accommodate the full range of unique bodies and abilities.
Creating and maintaining a practice that supports the physical and emotional well-being of the individual is the central focus of an integrative yoga program.

Barbara’s yoga sessions stretch both my mind and body. She creates a setting that allows for full immersion into a state of calm and focus. Any pains of the moment disappear, the events of the day recede into the background. Barbara’s calming voice and deep understanding of the Chaka system commands the room and evokes a deeper spiritual state on the class. She has inspired me to pursue the practice of yoga in my everyday life, through advanced readings and personal practices. I highly recommend her teachings to one and all.

I enlisted Barbara’s help in yoga therapy to help me get to the “next place” in my field of work and life. I was feeling blocked. Through several sessions, Barbara was able bring me focus by helping to identify what was holding me back and to work with the chakras to free up my energy and move forward. By the end our yoga therapy sessions, I felt that I was in better alignment. By taking this time to turn inward and do the energy work, Barbara was able to get me back on the path to my true self. I recommend working with Barbara to do the same for you. It is a life changer.

My wife introduced me to Barbara’s yoga class while I was recovering from a severe injury related to years of cumulative physical trauma throughout my career in the construction industry. At first the practice was challenging both physically and mentally. In Barbara’s class I learned how to heal and strengthen my body. My perspective on the way I saw and felt things changed as well. She has taught us to connect our mind, body and breath. Although it is a journey, it’s one I’ll be on for the rest of my life. As far as Barbara’s innate ability as a teacher and mentor, she has the unique capability to read her student’s skill levels and needs. She adjusts to them seamlessly and accordingly without judgement. She is full of kindness and encouragement. A true yogini.
