ERIN JOHNSTON, Nurse, YOGINI, MOM

I am a Registered Nurse, Yoga Teacher (specializing in Restorative Yoga), Trained Grief Support Group Facilitator, and Certified Radical Remission Health Coach, in addition to being a Wife and Mother of 5. I believe the human body is beautifully intricate and ready for each one of us to share a life connected. 

The meaning of life for me has in part been drafted by trauma and disease. My mother died in a car accident when I was 13 and my father died of cancer when I was 21. The impact of their lives and their passings carry on in my heart, and for awhile, carried on in my body. I was diagnosed with Lupus and Sjogren’s when I was 28, but eventually took this as an opportunity to discover my body, mind, and soul, which has been enlivening. Navigating life, loss, and motherhood, I understand how pushing your body to do what you want isn't always what it needs. 

Many people experience healthy movement in their lives as a stop and go process. As a health coach and yoga instructor, I hold space for other brave souls seeking to spark healing and intentionally allow it to flow. I believe that at any age, or stage of life, you can empower yourself to live the life that is right for you.
