🌿 Three Years of Community, Movement & Heart on Broadway 🌿

Three years ago, I received a message from someone, a simple invitation that blossomed into something truly special.

That invitation led to the beautiful Yoga community we now share at The Senior Cosmopolitan Centre on Broadway, and what began as a small group has grown into 35–42 incredible souls each class. 💛

Every Monday, we gather for a gentle flow (with many practicing in the chair), and every Wednesday, we enjoy a dedicated chair yoga class - with options to move between chair and floor as feels right 🌸

These classes are filled with laughter, breath, grounding, gentle movement, and the joy of coming together. They are a reminder that yoga is truly for everybody and every body.

✨ And the best part? On Wednesdays you can stay after class for FREE tea, coffee, and snacks - a beautiful way to linger, chat, and build genuine community.

To help make yoga accessible for all, these classes are:
💵 $5 cash drop-in
🪪 $15 yearly centre membership

No need to register, anyone can drop in.
10-11am

I also teach weekly at a retirement home in Saskatoon’s north end — they found me through Local Love Saskatoon. Community calls… and I answer. 🫶

If you’re part of a senior centre, community space, or residence and looking to bring larger-group accessible yoga to your people, I would love to come teach for you too. Just send me a message.

Here’s to movement, connection, and meeting each other where we are….with kindness, curiosity, and ease.
Thank you for being a part of this beautiful journey. 🙏✨

🌼 Your body remembers what the mind forgets.

The weight you carry in your neck.
The ache in your lower back.
The tension you can’t stretch away.

It’s not random, it’s the body whispering: something needs to release.

Through alignment, traction, and deep rest, we help your spine remember how to heal.

In a private therapy session, we work hands-on to restore balance and freedom through:
🪷 gentle traction and alignment
🪷 deep muscle and fascial release
🪷 ball + strap therapy to unwind chronic tension
🪷 guided breath and nervous system regulation

This isn’t just about relief, it’s about transformation.

✨ Private therapy sessions for December + January are now open.
Come home to yourself again.

🌿 Evolving with Intention

Every season asks something new of us.
This one is asking me to grow.

After years of refining how I teach, guide, and support healing through alignment, therapy, and presence, I can feel my work shifting.
It’s deeper now. More precise. More rooted in everything I’ve learned about the spine, the body as a whole, the nervous system, and the human heart.

So, I’m letting that evolution shape the way I serve.
I’m refining my offerings, adjusting my prices, and creating space for the kind of sessions and classes that bring lasting change, not just momentary relief.

It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what matters, sustainably, and with integrity.

Thank you for continuing to grow with me, to trust this work, and to honour what true healing requires.

✨ Private therapy sessions for December and January are now open for booking.
If you’ve been waiting to begin or continue your journey, this is the perfect time to step in.

🕊️Not All Therapy Happens on a Table🕊️

Your body carries your story, every ache, every pattern, every moment you’ve pushed through.
And the truth is… your body also holds the key to your healing. 💫

In every session, we work together to unwind what’s been stuck for far too long….whether it’s physical pain, emotional stress, or deep patterns held in your posture and breath.

My hands-on approach integrates:
✨ Alignment therapy — to restore balance and ease in your spine and joints
✨ Traction & release work — to decompress, open, and free your body
✨ Massage & fascia flossing — to soften and reawaken what’s been tight or guarded
✨ Targeted ball therapy — to release deep muscular and connective tissue tension
✨ Somatic awareness — to help you reconnect to your body with compassion and understanding

Each session is unique, guided by intuition, years of therapeutic experience, and what your body needs in that moment.

If you’ve tried other therapies and haven’t found lasting relief, this might be the missing piece.
Come experience what true alignment and freedom can feel like. 🌸

⚕️ Healing from the Inside Out 🕊️

At Inner Peace Yoga, my work goes far beyond a simple stretch or massage. I help clients reconnect to their bodies, releasing years of tension, pain, and stored emotion through Critical Alignment Therapy and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).

✨ Struggle with postural or movement patterns that cause fatigue or discomfort.
✨ Are navigating chronic pain, stress, or emotional overwhelm and want a more holistic approach.

In each private session, you’ll receive hands-on, high-quality therapy that incorporates:
💆‍♀️ Massage and myofascial release
🌀 Traction to create space through the spine
🧘‍♀️ Alignment and postural re-education
🔄 Flossing and mobility techniques to restore freedom and flow
💫 Ball and strap therapy for targeted release and integration

Every session is completely personalized - whether you’re seeking pain relief, emotional release, or a deeper connection to your body.

❤️‍🩹 Healing Isn’t a Straight Line

Healing doesn’t happen in the highlight reels, it happens quietly.

In the moments you choose to rest instead of push through.
In the breath that calms your nervous system.
In the tears that release what words can’t express.

These last few months have been a deep reminder that our bodies speak, and when we finally listen, they begin to soften. Healing takes time, tenderness, and patience. Some days it feels like progress… other days, like surrender. Both are sacred.

You’re not broken. You’re becoming. 💫

If your body is craving stillness, or if life has been asking more of you than you’ve had to give, come home to your practice.

Whether it’s Yin, Yoga for Backs, or a private therapy session, each space is designed to help you breathe deeper, move easier, and reconnect with yourself.

You don’t need to do more. You just need to arrive. 🌙

🌹In Loving Memory of Kathleen Brannen

March 30, 1965 – October 18, 2025

It is with deep sadness and love that we share the passing of our dear friend, yoga teacher, and soul sister- Kathleen Brannen.

Kathleen was a radiant light within our Inner Peace Yoga community for over 15 years. She shared her wisdom, warmth, and laughter with everyone who had the joy of crossing her path. A gifted teacher, healer, musician, mother, wife, and friend, Kathleen touched countless hearts through her compassion, humour, and her incredible voice that could lift the entire room.

We played music together, laughed, cried, and practiced yoga side by side. Kathleen’s spirit was kind, strong, and full of grace, even through her illness, she faced every day with courage and love. She was truly too young to leave this world, but her presence will forever remain in the heart of Inner Peace Yoga and in everyone who knew her.

🕊️ Celebration of Life

🌬️ How Your Clothing (and Breath) Affect Your Core + Pelvic Floor

A friend told me recently about her “brown pants.”
She said they weren’t overly tight- just a bit snug through the waist. But after wearing them for a few hours, she started feeling pain in her ribs, pressure in her stomach, and discomfort through her torso.

What’s happening here isn’t just about fashion, it’s about function.

When clothing restricts your natural breathing space, your diaphragm can’t move freely.
Instead of expanding down and out (like a full balloon), your body has to find another way to make room for the breath.

I often use this image in class:
🫧 Imagine a balloon filled with air- now press your hands around the middle. You’ll see the air bulge at the top and bottom. That’s what happens in your body when your breath (and torso) are squeezed.

With gravity, that “top bulge” drops downward, putting pressure on your pelvic floor, digestive organs, and even your lower back.
The result?
😣 Shallow breathing
💥 Rib or torso pain
💧 Pelvic floor dysfunction
💫 Increased stress + fatigue

Your diaphragm, core, and pelvic floor work together like a team and when one is restricted, the others have to compensate.

In private therapy sessions at Inner Peace Yoga, we work to restore that balance - teaching your body how to breathe fully again, freeing tension in the ribs and spine, and supporting a healthy, responsive pelvic floor.

It’s not just about breathing “better.”
It’s about giving your body back the space it needs to function freely.

✨ If you’ve been feeling compressed by stress, posture, or even your clothing, this work can help you expand again.

🌿 When Nothing Else Has Worked…

If you’ve tried massage, chiro, or physio and still feel like something’s missing, this is the work you’ve been looking for.

Private therapy at Inner Peace Yoga is where science, movement, and emotional healing meet.

Each 1.5-hour session is completely customized to your body - blending:
🌀 Critical Alignment Therapy — to release deep structural tension, restore posture, and relieve chronic pain
💫 EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) — to calm the stress response and release emotional holding
🌬 Somatic movement + breathwork — to regulate the nervous system and re-train your body to feel safe again

This is not a cookie-cutter yoga session. It’s highly specialized therapy for people who are:
• Living with chronic pain, stress, or fatigue
• Stuck in anxiety or fight-or-flight mode
• Healing from trauma or burnout
• Feeling disconnected from their body or breath
• Ready to feel different, not just “better for a day”

You’ll leave feeling lighter, grounded, and more connected, often noticing changes in your posture, mood, and energy right away.

💛 And because healing should be accessible, you choose your price tier:
$300 • $380 • $420 (+GST)
for a package of four private sessions (1.5 hours each).
The level of care is the same, you simply choose the option that fits your situation.

✨ It’s rare to find therapy this integrated, this personal, and this effective - especially at this price.

Your body has been waiting for relief.
Maybe this is your sign.

🌑 New Moon Reflections - The Energy of Renewal

The sky is dark tonight, the moon has disappeared, making space for something new to grow.
Each New Moon is an energetic reset.
A pause.
A chance to breathe before the next chapter begins.

You might feel it in your body, a subtle pull inward, a need to rest, reflect, or release.
This is your nervous system syncing with nature’s rhythm.
It’s normal to feel more tired, emotional, or quiet during this time.

At Inner Peace Yoga, we honor this natural cycle through the therapeutic work we do - helping the body and mind reset through:
🌀 Critical Alignment Therapy — releasing old physical holding patterns
💫 EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) — gently clearing emotional tension and stress stored in the nervous system
🌬️ Somatic movement and breathwork — reconnecting you to presence and safety

The New Moon reminds us that healing isn’t about pushing, it’s about softening. Letting go. Trusting the process of becoming.

Take a few moments tonight to be still. Set an intention. Ask yourself- What am I ready to release?
And what do I want to invite in?

🌙 The darkness isn’t empty - it’s fertile ground for your next beginning.

Our Story

Why the Turtle?

The turtle's whole life is one of steadfastness, effort, and patience. It lives a slow and steady life of "non-doing". We believe this also the life of the yogi. The Yoga teachings say that we must cultivate a long, steady practice to have the maximum result (sah tu dirgha kala nairantaira satkara asevitah dridha bhumih Sutra 1:14). Because of its seemingly wide-eyed, long-lived, carefree attitude the turtle is often thought to be the wisest of souls among the animal kingdom. At Inner Peace, we learn from the turtle and move at our own pace as the turtle does. The turtle takes its wisdom one day at a time - not reacting, simply accepting and moving on in its natural methods.

In many Native American folk legends, the turtle represents the earth mother and she is honored for saving mankind from the Great Flood. She is the immortal mother who stoically, silently carries the heavy burden of man upon her thick back. Many species have thirteen sections to their underbelly some sources say this represents each of the thirteen moons, and moons are a celestial symbol motherhood. Among Far Eastern cultures it was believed that the turtle's back symbolized Heaven and that its underside represented Earth. For them the turtle signified the possibility of uniting Heaven and Earth within one's own life.

There is a saying, "Home is where the heart is" - the turtle is always at home within itself.
