Hello, I'm Lisa Segar. I believe that the practice of yoga can be life changing. Yoga heals the body, mind and soul.

 

My personal experience with yoga, and the way it has impacted my life, is what guides me in my studies and work in the field of Yoga Therapy. It is my mission to help others reconnect with their inherent wholeness through the methods and philosophies of this sacred practice.

I began practicing yoga in 2015. Through my personal practice I found that in movement, I could better focus my attention on the sensations of my body, and less on the noise of the world. However, I soon discovered that the deep connection I was experiencing within myself was what kept me coming back. I realized that as I healed my emotional pain, I was in less physical pain, and my stress and anxious tendencies became more manageable. Through all of the pieces of yoga, I was was able to regain a sense of wholeness and healing.  

In 2016 I began my formal study of yoga. A love of the practice, and a love of learning, have continued to guide me on the path of my personal yoga journey. Grounded  in my yoga teacher trainings, my background as a nurse, and a call to serve, I began my studies to pursue a certification in Yoga Therapy in 2021. 

I approach my clients individual needs with the belief that yoga is for everyone. Through the use of mindfulness (meditation), mudra (gestures) & mantra (sound), breath work (pranayama), and movement (asana), and supported by sacred yoga text and philosophy, my goal is to offer you a Yoga Therapy experience that meets you where you are. Like you, I have experienced the pain, anxiety, stress and grief that comes with life's cycles. Whether your are seeking guidance for physical health, mental, or emotional wellbeing, Yoga can help. Together we will create a ritual of self-care to help alleviate suffering, and improve your health as we guide you back to your sense of wholeness. and reestablish a sense of joy.
