Back in Balance Yoga Therapy

If you’re feeling burned out, the first thing that’s important to understand is that you don’t have to “do more” in order to feel better.

❌ “just take better care of yourself”
❌ “just change your mindset”
❌ “just take a vacation”

If you have job-related burnout, addressing your working conditions is key. That doesn’t mean you have to quit your job per se, but it does mean that chronic stressors need to be reduced as soon as possible. Burnout won’t go away on it’s own. In fact, it often worsens over time and starts manifesting as physical symptoms (headaches and stomachaches, much?)

A good place to start would be identifying ongoing stressors then talking to your boss or colleagues to see what changes can be made to improve the situation.

HereNowYoga Teacher Training begins March 31st.

We recently had some people ask— can I take the program without wanting to become a teacher? There’s a growing number of people interested in looking for a program to deepen their practice without the teaching pressure.

If that’s you— FYI we offer a $500 discount and you simply skip out on the portions of the final weekends of practice teaching.

Those who complete the teaching sections are eligible for a 200 RYT Certificate with Yoga Alliance.

Bottom up is how I help you process trauma in yoga therapy. We hold so much tension in our bodies from past experiences. Learning how to let go on a physical level (which can be harder than it sounds) helps you learn to release those deeper patterns that areno longer serving you.

A slow, meticulous love practice rooted in community care.

Using Props to Deepen Your Practice {aka why props are not remedial} • Yoga With Kaya

"The purpose of SRY is not how far does the body go from point A to point B, but rather, what inner resolve, relaxation, release, and rejuvenation can take place when I let go at the deepest level, and what do I discover when that occurs. The props are used to support that primary purpose.

It’s not that one should never make any effort in life or strive. Indeed, this is part of life. However, most modern people living a life in the world do not need MORE training in how to push, force, achieve and strive. If they do need help with this, you aren’t likely to find them in the local studio doing modern postural yoga.

Most often the students that “can” go the “furthest” in a pose are stretching or pushing past the point of healing and transformation. They may be avoiding something deep within. When they back out of those extreme angles and let go of effort they discover so much."

Using Props to Deepen Your Practice {aka why props are not remedial} • Yoga With Kaya Let’s talk about props. In most forms of modern postural yoga, props are used as a “remedial measure”. This means, if a student “can’t do” a particular āsana, the teacher provides a “gap filler” in the form of a prop. For example, if a student can’t reach the floor in a standing f...

"Start in an easy way, it will take you all the way." -Kaya Mindlin (my mentor) quoting Swami Dayananda Saraswati (her mentor)

In Ayurveda, these are considered (a mixture of) Vata and Pitta imbalance, air and fire respectively. Learn to calm your nervous system and keep it calm, and watch how you can transform.

Rachel here - I had the pleasure of working with Jessica at @backinbalanceyoga throughout the month of December.

We at Solid Ground are always looking for ways to improve the wellness journey for our clients, so when I found out Jessica offers an amazing 1:1 program for yoga therapy (Supreme Release Yoga), I knew I needed to give it a try.

I was not disappointed! I initially signed up so I could provide a solid referral and know what to expect. I walked away after 4 individual sessions feeling SO empowered and balanced. She was so patient as she led me through purposeful breathwork and targeted muscle releases. WOW!

I highly recommend reaching out and chatting with her about her services, she's precious & would be happy to see how she can assist you and your individual needs!

Thanks for an amazing learning experience Jessica 🥰

It’s an inside job.

PRIVATE & SEMI-PRIVATE
therapeutic, restorative, and accessible yoga for healing the whole person

What is 1:1 Yoga Therapy?

A thorough, whole-person assessment and follow up sessions with Yoga sequences customized to meet your specific needs

A plan of care designed specific for you that you can do on your own to aid in healing

Lifestyle guidance from a yogic and AyurVedic (the sister science of yoga) perspective

Deeply nourishing, restorative, rejuvenative style of Yoga Therapy to balance your busy, driven life and to aid in better sleep, better digestion, and reduced anxiety

In every session, we will work to quiet the mind and release tight and tense muscles. You will be guided in poses that release the entire spine (tailbone, sacrum, psoas, ribcage) in a very meticulous way that allows for a full release especially in tight or stuck areas of the spine and body. You will be guided through specific pranayama (breathwork) and guided relaxation meant to calm the nervous system allowing for a state of calm and tranquility. For full benefit, you are encouraged to practice this style daily (shorter practice is fine) and meet with a SRY Yoga Therapist regularly.

In times where (almost) everything is available to us at the click of a button, we must inculcate patience.

The Yogic texts remind us of, “Kshane, Kshane” which means one step, one breath, one thing at a time.

Just because something is not visibly changing, does not means it is not. It is just that when a big change has to become apparent, it is first invisible to the naked eye before it becomes palpable. Have patience!
