Phyllis Moses

My mission as a health educator is to support my clients in living healthy and purposeful lives. I offer yoga,Yoga Therapy, counseling, meditation, hypnotherapy and HypnoBirthing®, serving the greater Portland area, as well as offering online sessions. I bring great compassion to my work, utilizing asana (movement), pranayama (breathing), meditation,  hypnosis and a bio-energy modality (BEMER®) depending on the interests and needs of my client. I began my exploration and study in the Viniyoga tradition over 42 years ago. I’ve cultivated specializations in trauma sensitive yoga, and am a certified yoga therapist (C-IAYT) through International Association of Yoga Therapists. I have developed yoga programs for addiction recovery centers and led prenatal yoga courses in hospitals, and am available for consulting on developing trauma sensitive yoga programs for organizations that understand movement is crucial to overall health, quality of life and recovery. I have a somatic based orientation to yoga, meaning practices that bring you into relationship with your own body. They lead you towards embodiment, towards knowing and being with the wisdom of the body. Science knows that 80% of information comes from our body (bottom to top); and 20% goes top to bottom (head to body). Which means that I care about your individual experience of what’s happening in your life, and how I can best support you finding your wise answers. Sessions for yoga, counseling, or HypnoBirthing®are also now available online via Zoom.
