Take Your Yoga Practice Deeper with Self-Study
I would really enjoy having you as a client. Yes, you, the strong yogi. You may have just begun yoga and are uncovering your dark side. Because we are both yogis, the trust that takes months to build is already there. Together, we would be stepping into a new, deeper journey professionally.
What I Bring To The Table Is Unique: I am a Yoga Teacher and a Holistic Therapist
I’m unique and different because I’m holistic and integrative. Some therapists are very medication focused, so my compassion and yogic background makes me different. Daily, I see clients who are on medication, but I look at lifestyle and integrative health first. And, I also love working with yogis because they already have a level of self-awareness. As humans, we all need professional support, such as someone outside of our situation, to help us feel like ourselves again. Often, yoga people seek out my counseling services because we share the same mindset and it helps them feel comfortable and safe. We all need a safe space to talk, process, heal, and let go. Everything remains confidential in the four walls of my office. When you’re in my office, I put on my therapist hat and you’ll have your client hat on, so to speak. Then, any other time, we step back into yoga teacher/yoga student outside of my office.
Is Medical Marijuana Right For Me?
Medical cannabis can be very helpful for people with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder along with weekly therapy.Read about yoga therapy for PTSD, here. The body moves into a fight, flight, freeze, and retreat which is a trauma response. When a persons body and mind have been through drama, they can relive this experience in flashbacks and dreams for years and decades later. Once the trauma has passed and a person is safe, hanging onto these memories can hold you back in life. Therefore, medical marijuana helps patients with post-traumatic stress disorder feel calm and grounded in order to gain perspective, and know that they are safe in the present moment. Further, medical marijuana can help a person calm down, find peace, and relax, in order to think clearly through their flashback and gain perspective. Together, we get to talk about all of these options. Read more about ways to help PTSD, here.

Crystals, Worry Stones, and Your Journey Into Integrative Therapy
Also, crystals can be a part of holistic, integrative medicine. Rose quartz can be paired with yoga poses, meditation, and mantras to promote positive transformation. More, a mantra is a phrase that you repeat that offers you inner strength. For instance, you may hold your crystal stone in session, like a fidget. Then, repeat, “Even through there is stress in my life, I am calm and at peace in this moment.” Different stones have different benefits. For instance, crystal quartz can channel negative energy into positive energy. On the other hand, rose quartz brings an open heart of love and can help with self-confidence. Dalmatian jasper brings energy to your second chakra, a place of intimacy, healing family bonds and bringing inner strength. As long as someone believes in the stone, they will work collaboratively with holistic, integrative therapy. It’s all about believing in yourself and manifesting the positive, bright future you want for your life.
I would love to help you, the yogi, go deeper through holistic therapy at Wisdom Within Counseling in East Lyme, Connecticut.
