Megan Carpenter

Yoga, Reiki, Mindfulness Instructor

Healing journeys are holistic and encompass every aspect of our lives. My own healing journey brought me to yoga and movement over 10 years ago, and I am passionate about sharing these modalities with others. I am a certified yoga instructor that works with clients from a somatic and holistic lens, bringing in practices that meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of my clients, but also holding space for clients to access deep healing. I support my clients as they allow their body to balance itself, cultivating present moment awareness and inviting curiosity, inquiry, and exploration from within. I blend traditional yoga, somatic movement techniques, breath work, meditation, nervous system regulation, and Reiki energy healing into a beautiful and individual experience for every client. Reiki is a Japanese energy healing technique used to promote relaxation, balance self-energy, and cultivate emotional well-being. Practitioners like myself channel universal life energy into clients to help release stress, alleviate pain, and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. It’s a soothing experience that fosters a deep sense of peace and rejuvenation.

Here at the Center for Grief and Trauma Therapy I offer trauma informed and somatic based small group classes combining gentle yoga, yin yoga, and restorative yoga practices along with breath work and meditation. I also work with clients one-on-one, offering holistic yoga, meditation and mindfulness, and Reiki healing.
