After experiencing traumatic personal losses and burnout in high-stress careers, Marcela found compassionate relief to suffering through the life-changing practices she now teaches. She is passionate about sharing simple, accessible tools that improve our sense of connection and quality of life.
She is fueled by the belief that everyone deserves to wake up energized and ready to greet the day with balance and joy regardless of what comes their way. As a yoga wellness educator, she will guide you through a sequential series of mindful yoga practices that:
Begin with deep restorative rest
Promote regenerative sleep
Relieve stress
Build immunity
Reset mind and body with movement to balance and manage mood
Re-enliven our life purpose with insight and a zest for curiosity and adventure that feeds our soul
Right now the world is being reimagined. We need these tools more than ever to find the energy and clarity to reimagine our next chapter.
Start resting and renewing right now.
