Karen Roy

Karen is a Certified Trauma-Informed E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher, influencing and contributing to the Wellness Community since 2009, working within in the Greater Toronto Area. As a Yoga Teacher and as a Master Meditation Teacher, Karen is honoured to be part of the Teaching Faculty of Insight Timer, the world’s number one APP for meditation, sleep and mindfulness. She is keenly interested in Somatic Yoga, which is a mindful movement practice that focuses on the internal sensations and experiences of the body rather than the external appearance of poses. Offering Somatic Breath Work and Sound Healing events, Karen feels like a positive part of the path. Based in Toronto, Canada, Karen enjoys working with both large and small groups, while maintaining a very small and dedicated private clientele list. Recent areas of Karen's study & work are within the field of mental wellness & are personally informed by her own emotional childhood trauma associated with a late adult diagnosis of ADHD & the co-morbidities of Depression & Anxiety often associated with an ADHD diagnosis. She speaks from a place of compassionate knowing as she has & continues her own personal experience of healing. Through acknowledgement, acceptance & forgiveness she helps others navigate their healing journey, making space for moving through the grief of what might have been. Karen teaches from a place of humility & real-life experience. Her voice is calm & relaxed as she invites us all home to ourselves again.
