balance: restorative healing offers life coaching, yoga, and mindfulness to provide tools for balancing on the tightropes of life
“this is what yoga is: it is to undo the bonds that bind us to sorrow. It should be practiced with determination and without the despair that troubles one’s thoughts.”
Yoga with balance helps people reconnect and foster a healthier relationship with their body, mind, and spirit.
Coaching with balance helps people understand their mental narratives and habits.
Sessions with balance are a space to observe, grow, and breathe.
balace values transparency, restorative practices, empowerment, and creativity.
transparency - balance values sharing knowledge. Whether that involves finding resources on my website or taking a few minutes during a session to reflect on what I see myself doing, I want people to feel safe and informed.
empowerment - balance values being human. Helping you develop your understanding of yourself and your relationships empowers you to make changes in your life. Your health is your responsibility, and balance is here to help you figure out ways to help yourself.
restorative practices -balance values centering relationships and relational healing. My practice is about sharing pain and promoting vulnerability in communication.
creativity - balance values creation. Creative energy is the essence of life. Creativity inspires change, and balance is about change. Creativity has helped me escape into my mind, and through balance it is allowing me to give birth to something very real.
Restorative practices (RP) has a number of definitions. The graduate school I attended defines it as a social science “that studies how to strengthen relationships between individuals as well as social connections within communities” (IIRP Website). It involves transparency, equity, accessibility, and a centering of relationships. RP is about understanding that all things exist in relationship to others. I do not exist without you, and we do not exist without this planet. I explain RP in more detail on my resources page.

"Hannah's Nidra yoga practice offers a much needed and unique respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A one hour class left me as well rested as a full night's sleep. I can't recommend her practice enough if you are looking for an opportunity to slow down and take some time for yourself."
