Melissa devotes her time and study to help people find a sense of belonging, clarity, and fulfillment... She was stuck and going through the motions; there was a sense of feeling lost that she couldn't quite describe, but when she found yoga and meditation, she finally came home to herself. Her hope is that these practices help you find that spark!

Bone Strength
Today learn how nerves, muscles, and bones work together. You'll do a couple of strengthening exercises and receive key take-aways on strength building.
Lezione 2

I am so grateful for this course, as I’m at the end of my tether trying to help my mum. It’s horrible watching her deteriorate every day in front of my eyes and feeling helpless. I know with a little help guidance and encouragement and tiny baby steps she can start strengthening years of sitting, standing and walking badly. I’m very lucky I have...

I found all the lessons valuable, but found particular utility in the notion of (safely) walking barefoot more often. Thank you!

These four lessons have a lot of content in a short amount of time. I found Melissa’s suggested movements to be both gentle and challenging. Her classes help put me back in touch with the yoga practitioner inside of me that got out of practice during COVID. Thanks!

Thank you Melissa! I especially appreciate d your emphasis on awareness of basic elements of posture, bone strength, range of motion, and balance, that anyone can work on and grow into. The idea that this fundamental work can actually, and if not reverse habits, at least provide easy ways to develop healthy habits is so encouraging. 🙏🏼💪🏼💗
