with Colleen McHorney, RYT-500, CYI, LifeForce Yoga Practitioner, LifeForce Yoga Trauma Specialist

LifeForce Yoga practices are designed to support a sense of balance, acceptance, and flow in our lives. When we practice self-inquiry, along with self-compassion, we are resourced to brave the complexities of the human experience. The fundamental belief of these teachings is that we are already the wholeness that we seek. Using evidenced-based practices, students are invited to return to the sense that all we desire is already within us. These techniques are rooted in the classical hatha practices of pranayama, gentle asana, mantra and imagery.

Colleen received her 500 hour training at Lotus Bloom Yoga and studied with Amy Weintraub for her certification as a LifeForce Yoga Practitioner. She is devoted to the studentship of teaching and offers each class as a tribute to her learning. Specializing in using evidence-based yogic tools, Colleen’s classes focus on creating a more balanced mental state. Colleen has a special passion for using yogic philosophy and techniques to work with anxiety and depression. She also works with those in addiction recovery to facilitate this journey of healing. It is her belief that every time we practice, we have the opportunity to find ourselves home in who we truly are, which is divine.
Colleen has immersed herself in the study of mantras, breathwork and physical practice, using a holistic approach to her time on and off the mat for radiant healing practices. In addition, she leads workshops in exploring the chakras for healing in the emotional body. Her offerings at Lotus Bloom Yoga studio integrate the whole self in a dynamic flow class, as well as a supportive chair yoga class for seniors.
