St Petersburg Yoga

For over 30 years, we have been helping our clients move towards better living.

For our team, this means working with brain, body and life at the same time - when one area is off, the whole human starts to lose balance. A holistic approach is necessary to move beyond temporary fixes and towards long-term wellbeing, presence and purpose.

** We offer free 15-minute consult calls to make sure that we're a right fit.

** We work with our clients online through Zoom. Work with us no matter where you are. We do in-person sessions with some local clients.

** Ofrecemos servicios en español.

OUR BRAIN-BODY-LIFE APPROACH

DESIGNING YOUR BRAIN RESPONSES.

• Slowing down the racing mind

• Reducing tension, stress and anxiety

• Building awareness of your deep-seated patterns of action and thought

• Implementing in-the-moment protocols for recognizing your triggers and interrupting your automated responses, creating space for alternative choices

• Gaining clarity and focus

• Making a deeper connection to your authentic Self, awakening to your own insight and wisdom

BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR BODY NEEDS.

• Self-mastery. We want to help you become a master of self-assessment (what you need and what is truly balancing for you) so that you can respond appropriately moment-to-moment.

• Addressing injury and pain FIRST. We help you discover and address the foundational causes of pain: tightness and lack of range of motion, side-to-side muscular imbalances, lack of joint space and weakness in supportive muscles. We guide you towards the type of movement that will help you move away from pain and injury, as well as what to avoid.

• Helping Body and Brain work together. We steer you towards the type of movement that will support your brain re-engineering efforts. And we help you recognize the type of physical activity that can exacerbate those habitual tendencies that are no longer serving you.

• Making your Body a priority in all areas of your Life. Caring for our bodies doesn’t just happen when we’re working out. Sustainable wellbeing is about paying attention to our body needs in the office, at home, in the car, on vacation, everywhere.

BEING IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT OF YOUR LIFE.

We work with clients who are...

• Figuring out career next steps (educational goals, employment loss, career shifts, etc.)

• Navigating relationship difficulties (uncoupling or divorce, longstanding relational pitfalls that continue to show up, etc.)

• Facing loss and transitions (loss of a loved one, retirement, empty nest, pre and post-natal, etc.)

• Working to discover their authentic passions and connect more deeply with their genuine self.

Together we work on:

• Training your capacity for stillness and inward attention. It’s common to look outside of ourselves for the answers. The knowing and confidence for the major decisions lies within each of us, and it requires developing our skills for quieting the ambient noise in our brains.

• Honest yet compassionate self-reflection. The process of holding the mirror up to ourselves – seeing the defective narratives and self-sabotaging behaviors that we have been governed by – is a humbling process. We provide frameworks and support in this process of self-discovery.

• Steering the small and big wheels simultaneously. Big change is the accumulation of small adjustments implemented patiently and consistently. We help you paint the larger vision and stay on track with the smaller steps that will inch you in that direction.

Being able to witness the transformation in our clients is what drives our passion.

Seeing someone work through debilitating back pain or a recurrent injury.

Accompanying a client on discovering the ways that harsh self-criticism is holding them back at work and in their relationships, and gradually start to redesign that internal script.

Walking with a client through the loss of a loved one or a major life change, and supporting them in keeping a balanced perspective that allows them to be present with their feelings (versus numb or avoid them), respond consciously (versus react on auto-piloty), and find opportunities for growth.
