Here is my story of how I found a New Me and how I can help you find a New You!
A New You Self Care Center came about after I decided to make a lifestyle change and let go of the weight that I had gained over the last 20 years. That’s right I am 50 and trying to let go of the weight that I had gained since I was 22. By letting go of that weight, I also let go of emotions that had been holding me down. This led me to my spiritual journey and finding a NEW ME. I am still on this journey and would love for you to join me.
It really began about 5 years ago when I began yoga and felt that at 280 pounds and 45 years old, I was just embarrassing myself. I tried and quit and then I decided I loved the peace that yoga brought me so I decided to try it again. It wasn’t until I decided to teach yoga that I really began the transformation.
I have always been a teacher in some form – public school, college, workshops. So, teaching something always brings me closer to doing and actually being a part of something so it was natural that I would want this with yoga. After attending White Crow Yoga’s 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training, I found true peace and acceptance for who I was on and off the mat.
See, I am still a bigger girl but that’s ok. I am now 220 pounds and 50 years old. What matters is that I am on a journey of wellness and self discovery and I want to take you with me. I recently completed my 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training focusing on mental and emotional wellness that yoga can bring you and WOW it really hit me that this is what everyone is missing.. the spiritual and emotional connection of yoga.
So, I began teaching out of my home and focused on making yoga accessible for everyone. I teach with modifications. We use bolsters and straps to go where our body will allow us at that time, and lots of love! I teach restorative yoga that allows your body to destress and let go of cortisol which causes weight gain. There is also yoga nidra a full body meditation, gentle and beginning yoga, chair yoga and a restorative/yin fusion classes. All have a theme of wellness or acceptance that is taught throughout the class and reiki is sent to students who are open to receive it.
I later continued with White Crow’s classes on Aqua Yoga, Prenatal Yoga, Yoga for Inflexible Bodies, Yoga for Hips, Shoulders, and Core Yoga, Yoga for Healthy Back, Yoga with Resistance Bands, and Foam Rolling. Each of these are available for private virtual yoga or private personal training sessions.
But, that was only the beginning. I loved to work out and go to the gym but I noticed my girlfriends wouldn’t go. So, I decided to attend FitTour’s classes and become a Certified Personal Trainer and to become specialized in group class instruction, Pilates, weight conditioning, senior classes, and yes even walking classes.
So, now I had all this training and how was I going to put this all together? Well I researched and found a double certification in Holistic Health and Wellness Coaching and Holistic Weight Loss Coaching through Natura Holistic Life Centre. It was exactly what I needed to help me bring about my 20 years plus teaching experience, my new found lifestyle, and combine it with structure and more learning of how to coach and help people.
I have finally found my calling and a way to provide it to women who feel uncomfortable at the gym or in large classes. I am hoping to empower women to begin to love themselves and go inside when doing yoga and let go of the fears and doubts of the outer worlds. I have seen change just this year in a few of my friends who have allowed me to assist them in each of these classes. The mobility, confidence and love are wonderful to see and makes me so happy.
I then continued my spiritual journey with studies of the Goddess and how our Feminine Divine is to be shown and not hidden. I now incorporate Goddess Work into everything that I do. We are a Goddess and we deserve the love that we desire.
So, if you ready to join me on my journey.. let’s find a NEW YOU!
