My work is rooted in the belief that healing and wellbeing are nurtured through rest, connection, compassion, nervous system support, and sustainable care for the whole person.
Through yoga, therapeutic support, community gatherings, and education, I aim to create spaces that feel grounding, welcoming, and deeply human.

Mindfully Made Values and Guiding Principles
Rest is respected.
In a culture that glorifies busyness, I believe rest is essential, healing and worthy of time and space.
Your body is honored.
My work blends trauma-aware practices with gentle, everyday wellness support that honors your dignity and meets you with compassion - without pressure to perform.
Gentleness is powerful.
Strength, balance, and confidence can grow through slow, accessible movement and supportive connection.
Community matters.
Retreats and gatherings are designed to foster quiet connection, shared presence, and belonging.
You are welcome as you are.
No flexibility requirements. No wellness perfection. Just a soft place to land.
Care is in the details.
Each offering is thoughtfully created with accessibility, inclusion and support at the center.

Yoga + Books is a casual, relaxed gathering for those who enjoy slowing down at the end of the week in good company. We’ll begin with accessible yoga, then settle in to share a favorite book, passage, or current read — always an option to just listen.
Come as you are and leave feeling a little more grounded, inspired, and connected.
A gentle 4-week therapeutic yoga series created to support nervous system regulation, mobility, balance, breath, rest, and whole-person wellbeing. These small-group sessions will weave together therapeutic movement, grounding practices, mindfulness, and restorative support in a calm and welcoming space.
This series is designed for those navigating stress, fatigue, caregiving, neurological challenges, life transitions, or anyone seeking a slower and more supportive approach to movement and healing.
I’m Julie — an occupational therapy practitioner, registered yoga teacher, and guide for those longing for a softer way to move through life.
I create gentle, supportive spaces to slow down, rest, and reconnect — especially during seasons of stress, grief, caregiving, transition, or burnout.
I believe healing doesn’t always come from doing more, but from being met with care, compassion, and permission to soften.
Drawing from both clinical experience and gentle, accessible practices, I offer support that helps regulate the nervous system, nourish the body, and reconnect with what feels grounding, steady, and true to you.


My work is gently informed by both professional training and lived experience, including:
I continue to grow through ongoing learning in nervous system regulation, advanced yoga education, and embodied practices so I can offer spaces that feel supportive, grounded, and deeply human.
When I’m not guiding retreats, gatherings, or working in occupational therapy, you’ll often find me reading, walking in nature, running, savoring quiet mornings, or creating gentle spaces for rest, connection, and coming back to oneself.

...for a healthier immune system.
