Laurie Myers

I was in recovery from an eating disorder that had ruled my life since I was a teenager. A dear friend kept encouraging me to “take a yoga class, take a yoga class, you’ll love it”. It took me a year but I finally went to one.

I loved it for all the reasons that people initially come to yoga. However, the one thing that made it truly transformational was that it allowed me to drop my armor. For years I had built a significant shield around myself for protection. Little did I know that my armor also functioned as a prison to keep me closed off from my feelings, friends, family and living my life.

It’s not always easy living with an open heart, it’s a daily practice. However it’s a practice that I’m fully committed to and am excited to share it with you.
