Thank you for visiting my website. Choosing a yoga therapist is a very personal choice, and you should seek someone with whom you are comfortable and who has the means to help you meet your goals. 

Marie Pampanin M.A., M.S., C-IAYT 
 

I’m a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT) and Trauma-Sensitive HeartMath Practitioner with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through trauma recovery, emotional healing, and physical resilience.

​

In my private practice, Mind Your Body Yoga Therapy, I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating the complexities of trauma, chronic pain, and dysregulated nervous systems. I use a blend of trauma-sensitive yoga, somatic therapies, and nervous system regulation techniques to help clients safely reconnect with their bodies, process experiences through self-reflection, and cultivate a sense of inner calm and resilience.

​

In addition to trauma work, I bring a focus on strength training and Pilates, recognizing their powerful role in building physical resilience and supporting emotional healing. These practices complement my holistic approach, helping clients increase body awareness, stability, and empowerment.​ My approach is rooted in creating a safe, compassionate environment where clients can feel seen and supported. I deeply understand that healing is a full mind-body process.

 

In addition to my work as a yoga therapist, I’ve spent over 20 years teaching and leading group wellness programs at health clubs, as well as working with adolescents, individuals, and families as a therapist. I’ve seen firsthand the powerful role that movement, breath, and mindfulness can play in releasing stored trauma and fostering healing. ​ My mission is to empower my clients to build emotional resilience, strengthen their connection to their bodies, and find healing at their own pace. 

​

My passion has led me to also be on the board of a non-profit company, Empowered Wellness, that helps to provide treatment for trauma survivors. I am also the host of  Yoga Therapy, The Alchemy of Healing.
