This video comes from « Vagus Nerve Anatomy and Re This video comes from « Vagus Nerve Anatomy and Regulation Training » in Dubai with Professor Ludmila Vasilieva. What touched me most was not only the science — but how deeply it connects with what I observe every day in practice. During the training, I had the chance to share some of my clinical experience: how often jaw and tongue tension reflect a deeper state of inner holding… and how, when this area softens, the whole system begins to shift. The muscles of the jaw and tongue are closely linked to the pathways of the vagus nerve. When we hold tension here (often unconsciously), it can keep the body in a state of subtle stress: shallow breath, tight throat, restless mind. Gentle release of the jaw, softening the tongue, and bringing awareness to this area can send a signal of safety to the body. Sometimes, a simple shift — unclenching, exhaling, softening — can open the door to deeper relaxation. Small area… powerful effect. #VagusNerve #JawRelease #tonguerelease #BodyMind #selfcare
Three months in India—less an ending, more somethi Three months in India—less an ending, more something quietly continuing.

From Tension to Expansion: This was a 3-day exper From Tension to Expansion: This was a 3-day experiential workshop focused on helping the body come out of holding patterns and return to ease. We worked on: • Releasing tension in the diaphragm and ribcage • Supporting the vagus nerve and nervous system • Restoring natural, efficient breathing Through simple, practical methods — gentle inward practices, deep relaxation, and self-release techniques — participants learned how to reduce physical and emotional tension in a way that feels safe and sustainable. The focus was not on theory, but on experience and application. Tools that can be used daily. What participants shared: “Literally life-changing… not too much theory, straight to practice and very effective.” “I’ve had a big shift in my jaw tension… a real reduction in clenching and a much more relaxed feeling.” “Very practical… things you can take away and use straight away.” “Deep knowledge, but taught in a very grounded and accessible way.” Join us for future wellness programs rooted in yoga and Ayurveda. #yogatherapy #holistichealth #breathe #ashram

FAQ

Is yoga therapy available virtually or only in person?

Both! I have a small number of in-person slots; however, virtual offers us more flexibility. If you feel strongly that you'd like to meet in person and my slots are full, I'm happy to start working with you virtually and put you on the waitlist for in-person sessions.

Does my private health insurance cover your services?

Yes, As registered members with THE RITMA COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE ASSOCIATION, most yoga therapy services can be covered under "Alternate medicine and Naturotherapy" by your health insurance. Massage therapy services are covered under the standard "Massage Therapy" category.

We can provide you with an insurance receipt after your session to help you claim reimbursement. Just let us know at your next appointment!

Please note: Coverage details can vary depending on your specific insurance plan. We recommend contacting your provider directly to confirm coverage for yoga therapy services.
