Hello! My name is Sarah LH, and I am the owner of Recovery Yoga Mn, an RYT 200 Yoga Instructor and a person with lived experience in recovery from addiction. My mission is to provide a holistic approach to longterm recovery. Through client centered yoga and meditation practices, self awareness and unification of the mind and body are supported. When healing is supported for both the mind and body, clients are able to strengthen their foundation in recovery.
I designed my recovery yoga classes specifically to meet the needs of people in recovery from addiction, adversity, and trauma. I earned my AA in Psych from ARCC, and will be finishing my AS in Integrative Health and Healing shortly. I am a RYT 200 yoga instructor, and I also have certifications in Y12SR (Yoga 12 Step Recovery) and Yin Yoga. I am currently earning certifications in Restorative Yoga and Mindfulness, as well as studying sound therapy, trauma informed yoga, and yoga nidra.
I contract with treatment centers to bring my classes into their facilities. At this time, I am not currently offering classes to the general public. The main philosophies of my classes are self acceptance and self awareness, slowing down, allowing ourselves to feel what we are feeling, and moving through it. Recovery yoga can increase positive feelings, self esteem, a sense of calm, awareness of self and others, and ability to regulate emotions as well as regulate the nervous system. Classes can also decrease anxious feelings, depressive feelings, time spent in fight or flight mode, stress, and other difficult experiences in recovery. I have been teaching my classes for 2 1/2 years in the Twin Cities, and it is very rewarding to see how much my clients benefit from participating in classes. I look forward to working with you and your treatment center!
