May Your Path Be Your Purpose.
Early Foundations: As an early pioneer of releasing trauma from the body through yoga, Corena quickly became known as the teachers teacher. She has more than 3 decades of experience in developing methods to aid in holistic wellbeing of individuals. With her innovative and research driven protocols, she is recognized as a visionary and a leader in the growing area of Trauma Treatment, as popularized by the book The Body Keeps The Score.
Bridging Innovation and Science: At Duke University Corena taught Nike execs Energy Management and Mindfulness for individual and team cohesiveness. She continued to evolve her educational offerings to include training mental health therapists in releasing trauma from the body. She has taught and certified more than 100 medical professionals (LCSWs, Psychologists, and Psychiatrists) in her Clinical Yoga Institute protocols, a process proven to release trauma from the body. She was a 2022 NASW UT award winner and her courses in this methodology have been recognized for their value and approved by the Utah Juvenile Justice system as the preferred treatment method.
Tapping Into The Subconscious Corena began building on the amazing successes of these methodologies, and she developed the Nervous System Recalibration, or NSR™, Process in 2018. This process is rooted in the science of Polyvagal Theory and the Chakra System for healing and releasing trauma. Through the melding of these two medical systems, she created a science based process that can recalibrate your nervous system after trauma, loss, betrayal and stress. She has worked with and taught this process to a diverse group of licensed and certified therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists, who report having results for their clients and patients that far exceed those of traditional trauma treatment methods.

Julie Boam
Social Media Specialist
I find so much joy in creating connections, whether face to face, on a yoga mat, or through social media. Our computers and smart devices provide such a unique opportunity to plug into our passions and connect with people who support and share those passions. Our lives are made up of small moments, and if I can bring a small moment of insight or joy into a life through a smile, a hug, or a post, I feel like I've made a difference.

I am honored to promote the infinite beauty and wisdom that is part of life and a strong yoga practice. It is a blessing to be able to support someone in living their Dharma and to open and awaken that calling in others. Enjoy the journey and do yoga!
