Yoga, often translated to mean union, as derived from its root “to yoke”, offers a unique perspective on belonging and connection. Like many other spiritual practices, Yoga combines effort AND ease, advocates personal growth AND personal responsibility, emphasizes the importance of community AND service, and prioritizes compassion AND love. Now, please do not misunderstand me…. Read More

Ready for a challenge? Find a mirror. Look at yourself and say: “I LOVE YOU!” I’m not kidding. If you can’t say it to yourself, how can you expect it to hear it or receive it from others. Fortunately our love from others is NOT dependent on our love of ourselves, and yet, maybe it… Read More
Happy February! This month I’d like to dedicate these love letters to ahimsa (“ahh-him-sa”) and its application to self-care. First, what do I mean by self-care? At its most basic, self-care refers to the care of oneself. Simple, right? But it can also refer to health care provided by oneself without the consultation of a… Read More
As is typical in January, it takes a few weeks to settle into the New Year. I notice it most when I write the date… I wrote a few checks this week, which in itself is atypical in this electronic age, right!?! Are you noticing shifts? I love to “catch” signs of change and shift,… Read More
Happy New Year!!! I told you last month that Thanksgiving is my favorite Holiday… and it is.

New… Read More

As the hectic holidays start to take hold in our lives, there’s really only one anecdote to the chaos: Self-care. That’s right, 2019’s biggest buzzword is the thing that will help us survive (and thrive) in the face of seasonal insanity, commitment overwhelm and anticipation of what’s to come in the New Year ahead. Think about it:… Read More
I’m curious? Do you prioritize story time in your life? And I’m not talking about attending the toddler’s event at the library. I’m wondering if you make it a regular habit to seek out and listen to stories. The newspaper is a source of stories, as is facebook and instagram. But those aren’t the stories… Read More

A one-stop shop for mind, body and soul care. Kimberlyn knows how to help you work through self-doubt, or challenge your body all with compassion, grace and understanding. She is very encouraging to dig a little deeper to help you meet your life goals.
Thank you for an absolutely fantastic class today. I don’t have the vocabulary to express how it made me feel but it was one of those classes that reminds you why you do yoga. You are an amazing teacher and a facilitator of personal growth in others. Thank you again.
Kimberlyn, I love the way you teach. I can close my eyes, and you are able to make us aware of every little movement that needs to happen. My body always responded to the sound of your voice. You have a real knack, especially for beginners and those with limited abilities.
Kimberlyn has guided me in learning so much about myself. She has helped me recognize my own strength, truth, and acceptance. I have enjoyed the Women’s Circle she leads where I have learned many life skills and made life-long friendships. Thank you, Kimberlyn!
Great space with great instructors! I love the small class size and being able to stretch out! Kimberlyn is an amazing instructor and I love the pace and energy of her classes!
I always think I am alone in my feelings and experiences, but everyone out there is holding on to crap or trying to move through it, everyone wants an authentic life that expresses their purpose. It helps to take the journey with the support of others. I lay open my heart and invite you to see all of me. I want to experience you in return, to share with you as you move toward joy!
Kimberlyn has true gifts. She intuitively seems to know what my body needs. I cannot say enough good things about her care and her professionalism. How fortunate I am to have Kimberlyn in my life.
I loved the vision board workshop… Kimberlyn creates a welcoming and nurturing space to relax and recharge your body and mind!
Life’s Work Yoga is a STELLAR practice regardless of your ability or interest in yoga from no experience to guru. Recently, I have enjoyed having their team of instructors come to Hood College to donate much-needed yoga breaks for our whole community (students, faculty & staff). Their approach and philosophy aligns well with mine, and I love their “gentle yoga” sessions on campus that engage any skill level. A great local business to visit for some self-care!
Fantastic, I LOVE it.Kimberlyn was so nice and she made me feel secure and welcomed. This is my first time trying Yoga and it was an amazing experience ️
Kimberlyn’s coaching help has helped me in ways I didn’t realize it would. It’s organically turned into much more than what I originally thought I needed/wanted. Thank you!
