In-Depth 200-Hour Trauma-Informed Body-Positive Yoga Teacher Training
Embrace embodied living with the Eight Limbs of Yoga.
At the Life of Wellness Institute, the first step in the journey is so more than learning to teach Viniyoga. It begins with seeing yourself as you truly are, developing expertise in the practices, tools, resources, and support Yoga offers while compassionately embracing your true self and life with peace of mind, ease, and freedom.
Our programs are designed with a foundation of our Be K.I.N.D. Embodied Wisdom Methodology to develop self-knowledge with loving-kindness, with interoceptive learning through a trauma-informed and body-positive lens, ultimately deepening your connection to inner wisdom, preparing and empowering you to confidently and lovingly share this gift with others.
Our training is led live virtually or in person with the supportive guidance and 1:1 Mentorship of our founder, Yoga Therapist Melanie Taylor.
