Follow Your Soul - Yoga Therapy

02/11/2026

Hello Lovely Soul!

I’ve sent out messages and emails but here’s a post too … I wanted you all to know some important news …
I will try to keep this short and sweet but basically, I’m BACK!

3 main things:

1. Yay! I have a NEW website! Please check it out at this link.

https://www.followyoursoulyogatherapy.com/

If you’re like some people and have questions, for instance you might not know exactly what a therapy session will look like – go to the website and it should all be explained there. If not, reach out to me anytime.

2. You can now book sessions!!!
I’m excited to say, I have a new office location right here in Moncton.

If you would like a session, you can now find me on Mondays (and Thursdays as well if preferred – just message me directly for this day) at 272 St George Street (look for Dr. Renee Purdy’s office).
Book away online on my Website – click the box that says “Book a Session” … I can’t wait to see you!
The first available appointments will be on Monday, February 23,2026.

I’m also available for clients if they would prefer the Hillsborough area too.
DM me for more info if this is you!

3. *EXCITING NEWS*
Finally, after many years of courses, training, blood, sweat and tears, I am now a certified Naturotherapist (Therapist under Alternative and Complementary Medicine with Groupe RITMA).
This means that I can now be covered under “Naturopath” by most insurances and a receipt will be given for you to claim the session services (please check with your own insurance coverage).

Lastly, PLEASE share away!!!
Word of mouth and my friends are the biggest way people will know my services are out there. Thanks in advance 😊

Loree 🙏

Love Yoga Therapy for this 🙏

I love the way Breathing Deeply does their comparisons between a Yoga Teacher and a Yoga Therapist. It's difficult since it's such a relatively new and unknown field, but these posts do a good job of explaining the training that goes into being a Yoga Therapist and just how beneficial it can be imo :-)

You've been teaching yoga for years. You see the same students week after week.

And you notice something.

That student who always skips certain poses because of their knee pain. The one who mentioned their anxiety disorder during check-in. The person who asked if yoga could help their migraines.
You want to help them. But your 200-hour training didn't prepare you for this.

That's the difference between a yoga teacher and a yoga therapist.

🧘🏻‍♀️ Yoga teachers guide group classes in a specific style or tradition. They lead healthy populations through physical practice and, when skilled, can guide students deeper into all aspects of yoga.

🧘🏽 Yoga therapists apply specific techniques to address health conditions. They work one-on-one, assess clients through both yoga therapy and Western medicine lenses, and create personalized protocols for chronic pain, autoimmune disorders, anxiety, trauma, and neurological conditions.

The training reflects this difference:
📚 Yoga teacher: 200 hours
📚 Yoga therapist: 800+ hours (IAYT accredited) plus the foundational 200-hour certification

All yoga therapists are yoga teachers. Not all yoga teachers are yoga therapists.

If you keep encountering students with complex health issues, you're already feeling the pull toward therapeutic work.

Your students need more than a group class can offer. They need personalized, condition-specific guidance rooted in both tradition and medical understanding.

Ready to expand your scope and truly help people heal?

I am now booking therapy sessions at my office in Hillsborough!!!
DM me if you'd like to set a date/time at that location or if you'd like to set up a visit here in Moncton too (location to be discussed) :-)

A year ago this week, I was in the magical place that is Kripalu in Massachusetts.
I feel so lucky to have been a small part of assisting a wonderful training with beautiful couples and my mentors Michael Lee and Sarah Graco from Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy.
I feel privileged to have found my “thing” and that a year later I’m getting back into offering these amazing therapy sessions again.
Love and gratitude 🙏

Exciting News!!!
I'm back!
AND
I'm now a member of Naturotherapists of Canada!

It's been a bit since posting on here, but this is definitely an occasion to do so. It's also a 6 year Anniversary since officially receiving my Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy Certification!
Divine timing
After a bit of a hiatus (I've never really stopped though in many ways), I am now going to be back to offering 1-on-1 Yoga Therapy (movement) sessions.
Whether you're new to this type of Therapy or a returning client, I'm excited to offer my services in person again.
With all the courses and practice, and many, many hours of hard work, I'm now excited to be a member of naturotherapists. This means my services can be covered by some/most insurance plans (you will need to check with your specific company to see what's covered under your own plan).
Finally, I'm SO excited to be in cahoots with Melody at Bluemind Counselling & Consulting again!
Stay tuned for more info, but please contact me if you'd like more info or to schedule a session. I will be having days and times available in person, both in Moncton and in Hillsborough.
Can't wait to see you again!
Loree
