Sheila Singh - Austin, Texas - Teacher Profile Thanks to Richard Miller, I have found my true calling. It’s such a blessing to have the restoring benefits of iRest to offer others and use on myself. I am truly grateful for the sense of fulfillment I experience through practicing and leading iRest. Now that I am certified (Yeah!), I also plan to reach out to the Sedona Community and offer Yoga Nidra in small medical offices.

I feel that my consciousness has expanded to a greater degree of observing myself, staying fully present to life, and more calmly responding when challenges come. I have the privilege of leading iRest Dyads and group sessions, both indoors and out, on Sedona’s majestic red rocks, with clients who attend my Sedona YogaLife.Net Retreats and Tours. They are often stressed professionals looking for relief from the pressures of life while on vacation in Sedona. I am creating a new Sedona-Grand Canyon Yoga Nidra Retreat and invite other certified iRest colleagues to bring groups to Sedona and co-lead Yoga Nidra sessions. It was the most meaningful experience I have had in my lifetime. I am so proud and grateful for the whole iRest Certification process. Johanna Maheshvari Mosca - Sedona, Arizona - Teacher Profile I teach iRest in group classes in my studio in Kalaheo, Hawaii and one-on-one, either in person or online/telephone. While many of my clients are military veterans or trauma survivors, I work with anyone who is dealing with stress or symptoms that are interfering with their lives. I became a yoga and meditation teacher because I struggled with trauma related symptoms – and yoga and iRest were critical to my healing process. I love being able to share these tools for self-healing and post traumatic growth with others who struggle with the aftermath of trauma. I am passionate about working with servicemen and women, because I witnessed firsthand the sacrifices they make. I spent two years in Afghanistan working with the military, and I’ve seen friends struggle with the aftermath of combat, PTSD, and suicide. I have been working with the military community for almost 15 years. Lisa Michelle McGalliard - Kalaheo, Hawaii - Teacher Profile During the many hours of working through the intense, yet delightful Certification process, I studied, read, journaled, and practiced at a much deeper level, yielding an even deeper connection to the peacefulness within. From early traumatic experiences, the effects of which led me to live in extremes of emotion, I’ve learned to identify nuances of feeling, and now live a more balanced life. I found iRest many years ago and have practiced it daily since. So I teach to the military population and people with illnesses, injuries, or special conditions. Although I teach all levels, my focus is on the therapeutic application of asana and meditation, especially for PTSD.

I teach group classes, workshops, teacher trainings, and retreats, as well as private lessons.

I began teaching yoga by focusing on precise alignment instructions, to keep students safe and create space in their body. Although I still teach healthy alignment in asana, for the last several years, I have focused more on welcoming the student where they are, and on helping them create spaciousness in their whole being as they explore a broader foundation that supports awareness and expansion.
