Community Collaborations: Yoga Life with Amy Bishop

What services do you offer to the community?

I'm passionate about assisting others in aging gracefully through movement and energy work. My offerings include mobile private one-on-one and small group sessions where I can come directly to your home, workplace, or wherever you might be. I also teach techniques for self-massage using Tune Up® balls to help release fascia and enhance mobility. Additionally, I provide reiki attunements, meditation sessions, Yoga Nidra, Restorative Yoga, and various workshops. I'm also available for public speaking engagements to share the benefits of these practices.

What’s your favorite part of your job?

My students would be my favorite part. Witnessing my students transform and helping them live their lives more fully is such an honor and privilege to be a part of.

What’s your favorite service?

I truly enjoy private sessions because they allow me to tailor each session to the specific needs of individuals or small groups, whether it involves various forms of yoga, self-massage, or a combination of services. However, I'm also passionate about expanding my public speaking opportunities. Sharing my knowledge and experience in a public setting lets me reach and benefit a wider audience, helping more people embrace a healthier lifestyle through movement and mindfulness. This blend of personal customization and broader outreach is what I love most about my work.

What makes your business unique?

What sets my business apart is our deep commitment to personalized wellness. We understand that each body is unique, so we emphasize proper alignment and encourage clients to tune into how each pose feels in their body. This approach recognizes that the body has an inherent ability to move and heal itself. By closely collaborating with our clients, we can better understand how their bodies respond to different practices, allowing us to tailor our sessions to maximize benefits. This focus on individualized care and responsiveness to each person's physical needs and responses is what truly makes us stand out.

Community Collaborations: Alexa Aboudaram and Navigating Nutrients

My name is Alexa Aboudaram, owner of Navigating Nutrients. I am an Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP)

Why did you open Navigating Nutrients?

In 2017, I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid, prescribed medication, and informed I would continue to need a higher dose for the rest of my life and that there was nothing I could do about any of it. What a shock! I felt helpless and “doomed” to my symptoms and medication forever. ​

Throughout the following year, I experienced debilitating fatigue, underwent half a dozen surgeries, and had a list of questions my doctors couldn’t answer. My medication dose tripled, yet I was feeling worse than ever. I was frustrated that my body seemed like it was falling apart so young.

I refused to stand idly by; I wanted to take charge of my health and get to the truth.Through the suggestion of a good doctor and a year of trial and error, my symptoms vanished, and I entered into remission; all because of food and lifestyle changes. In awe of what nutrition could do, I enrolled at the National Therapy Association soon after starting Navigating Nutrients.
