The Full Story
Isabella Hunter’s story is a powerful example of how yoga can be a transformative practice, especially when it’s combined with professional mental health support. Her diverse certifications and personal experience give her a unique perspective on healing, particularly for those dealing with trauma, anxiety, and PTS(D). It’s impressive that she’s able to use her own journey to help others navigate similar challenges.

By meeting students where they are, she helps create a sense of safety and empowerment, allowing them to explore their practice at their own pace. The combination of pranayama, vinyasa, and restorative practices gives her a lot of tools to tailor each session to the individual. When applicable, she includes thoughtful journal prompts to encourage self-reflection and helps students to build a bridge between their yoga practice and their therapeutic work.
