YOGA TEACHER FEATURE

Vera has been passionate about health and wellness for over two decades. She believes that true wellness comes from a wholistic approach encompassing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual realms and that all areas of one’s life are interconnected. Vera’s personal development journey brought her to yoga, meditation, mindfulness and eventually life coaching – she became a certified life coach in 2016 and today her mission is to help women shine their light more brightly.

Vera first experienced Yoga Nidra a few years ago and was immediately drawn to this ancient meditative, restorative, and healing practice. When the opportunity came up for a teacher training, she jumped at the chance. She is excited to share this wonderfully beneficial form of yoga with other women, especially in a group setting where support, love, and energy is created.

Vera’s Yoga Nidra classes are on Friday’s at 9am. Click the link in our bio to book a class or www.maliya.ca

Please help us welcome Hilary, our newest Trauma Resolution Bodywork Therapist to the Maliya team!

While working in the field of counselling for the past 12 years, Hilary has developed an appreciation of the benefits of somatic/body work in restoring health and wellbeing. This appreciation led her to pursue training in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy.

Hilary has observed this treatment to be especially helpful in calming whole body states of stress, overwhelm, anxiety, unease and other nervous system imbalances that often co-exist while facing life’s challenges. In this way, BCST can be used to support and augment counselling and other therapies.

YOGA TEACHER FEATURE

Fifteen years ago when she took her first yoga class, Carol Tapsay had just quit a 30 year smoking habit and had resolved to live a healthier lifestyle. The benefits (better sleep, lower stress, reduced aches and pains) of linking movement with breath was immediate and she began taking as many different yoga classes as she could.

A knee injury, low back pain and a larger body had her asking for or figuring out variations for many poses. Five years ago when she had the opportunity for a career change, she really started to think that she should share her love of yoga with those who may feel they can’t ‘do’ yoga because of shape, age or injury.

In March 2017 she took a 200 YTT Intensive with South Okanagan Yoga Association in Sorrento, BC followed by specialty courses in Restorative, Sacred Elders, Pain Care Aware and Accessible yoga . Her classes always offer many options through pose variations and use of props to ensure all students move with ease.

Starting January 11th, you can join Carol’s Gentle Hatha Class on Wednesdays at 12pm and Restorative Yoga on Thursday’s at 9am!

YOGA TEACHER FEATURE

Sara Folk has experienced several major injuries, accidents and hardships over many years, contributing to her own physical, mental and emotional pain. Through these experiences, Sara started to explore the world of yoga.

Sara had already learned all of these “moves” years before through sport, but they were just practiced in a different way. Feeling as though something in her was sparked, she followed this path to become a Certified Embodiment Yoga Teacher with 200-hours of training. She then continued with her advanced training to become specialized as a Trauma Informed Thai Yoga Therapist at the 500-hour level.

Sara has experienced first-hand the wonders of what yoga, when done mindfully and intelligently, can do for one’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being, and she can’t wait to explore what this incredible practice can do for you.

Vera Ilnyckyj is coming to Maliya on January 7th to help us Start 2023 in ALIGNMENT.

Instead of setting new year's resolutions this year, how about a different approach?

In this workshop you will have time to:
* Acknowledge yourself for your accomplishments and successes
* Let go of the things that didn't go so well in 2022
* Remember what you're grateful for
* Set intentions and goals for 2023 that are aligned with what's most important to you
* Connect with others for support and inspiration

Closing out the current year will allow you to pause, reflect, and be present. It will change how you think about the new year because you'll be starting from a fresh perspective, with renewed energy, and in alignment with what's truly important to you.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy is a therapy that is exceptionally helpful for individuals who experience bigger than average emotions.

Emotional dysregulation can make functioning on a daily basis quite challenging. This group is designed for adolescents aged 14-17 who experience dysregulated emotions and don’t have the skills in their tool kits to know how to work with their emotions (as opposed to having them create chaos for them).

Click the link in our bio and head to workshops and events to learn more about this upcoming group!
