Favorite pose
It is hard to choose a favorite pose, but one family of poses that I enjoy and keep in my practice is backbends. Backbends strengthen our arms, legs, and back, and they open our shoulders and chest. Even passive backbends can be invigorating. Backbends increase postural awareness and they help counteract the effects of sitting in front of a computer all day. But most of all, I appreciate how backbends open me up spiritually and make me vulnerable to and present with whatever is going on in my life at the moment.
 
Biography
I've been practicing yoga since 2007, and I first became a yoga teacher in 2016. I got into yoga to work on myself--physically and emotionally--and now I am grateful and honored to be able to share the healing benefits of this practice with others. In my spare time I enjoy reading, being in nature, and spending time with my husband, Mike, and my son, Preston.
