Movement

Yoga postures anchor your body and mind in the present moment. Asanas increase your stability, range of motion, and balance.

Meditation

Meditation reprograms your neural pathways and improves your ability to regulate emotions. It is a practice that requires time,  patience, and self-compassion.

Breathwork

Breath regulation, or pranayama, increases the oxygen supply to your brain and stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, resulting in a calmer, more relaxed state.

ANXIETY REQUIRES A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH

ABOUT OUR FOUNDER

Hello.


I'm Avenelle /ăh-vuh-nell /an educator, explorer, writer, and gatherer, half Southerner - New Orleans, half West Coast - Oakland CA, and the founder of The Anxious Yogi. I began exploring yoga to ease my anxiety. Over the past decade, my practice and teachings were my anchors, enabling me to evolve, revealing calm amidst chaos, stillness within movement, and the ability to surrender in times of uncertainty. I'm here to share my insights and learnings.

“Amazing Experience!”

"I did several yoga sessions with Avenelle.  I am a yoga beginner and therefore have not had much experience. Avenelle was very attentive, to myself and others and great at ensuring the poses were done correctly.“

“I Feel Safe And Held”

"Avenelle helped me recover from various injuries and improve my strength, flexibility, and balance. She has done that and so much more. She brings her warmth, ease, and presence to every session. She designs each class to build on my strengths and encourages me to listen to the wisdom of my body."

“Life Changing”

"I recommend Avenelle's class to everyone. I was blessed to take yoga and meditation with her when I was experiencing sciatica nerve issues. Avenelle helped to ease my discomfort with various stretches. What makes Avenelle a great instructor is her technique of articulating each exercise carefully."

Not All Yoga
Calms Anxiety

It's not uncommon to feel isolated, anxious, or like "a problem to be fixed" in modern yoga. Whether it's your body type, gender, or ability to move in a specific way, it can feel like everyone knows what to do except you.
