About Beth

I am a trauma-informed, 500-hour registered yoga teacher with the Yoga Alliance. I’m an energy healer, Reiki Practitioner, and a seeker with a specialty in blending Eastern Yoga and Ayurveda practices with respect to and partnering with Western mental health and medical practices.

My Journey

With over 20 years of experience in corporate America, specializing in Human Resources, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals and organizations connect with vision, align talent, and foster environments where both people and teams can thrive. But no matter what success I contributed to, there was something deeper I was seeking—an alignment between my work and my true purpose.

My own yoga journey began more than 20 years ago. I was looking to explore living a purposeful life with joy and to manage stress. While my practice started as an asana (poses) practice, I continued to desire life through a yogic lens. Since then, I’ve deepened my practice to include education, meditation, and the study of texts.

After my own experiences with nervous system dysregulation, and a couple of trips to the ER, I was inspired to design and share accessible wellness practices to those who operate in high pressure environments such as public safety professionals, first responders, mental health professionals, and more. 

The blending of Eastern and Western wellness practices like mindfulness, breathwork, and yoga, integrates nervous system regulation techniques, and provides tools to help manage stress, prevent burnout, and foster resilience in environments where stress and fatigue are evident. This work helps people to connect more deeply to themselves, strengthen their capacity to manage stress, unlock potential to improve performance, and regulate themselves in healthy ways.

The mission of Belle Shanti Yoga & Wellness is to guide you toward holistic well-being. Together, we’ll unlock the tools you need to thrive—mindfully, purposefully, and with intention!
