Betty Jo McDonald, CYT-500, Certified Life Coach, Level II Reiki Practitioner. With her first yoga class having been more than 20 years ago, Betty Jo decided to become a teacher so that she could help others discover the transformative power of the practice. Through a trauma-informed lens, Betty Jo adeptly guides her students in accessing their own innate wisdom to heal and release what no longer serves. In addition to the somatic experience of flowing through yoga postures, Betty Jo also draws upon her expertise as a Level II Reiki Practitioner. Her classes include a blend of gentle flow and restorative poses, breath work, and energy balancing rituals.
A person in long-term recovery, Betty Jo believes that everyone is recovering from something. Although she’s been on her journey for quite some time, she still felt something was missing and found great healing through an online women’s group during the pandemic. By connecting with others each week in a supportive framework, she started to have less anxiety, better emotional regulation, and greater ease with navigating the ups and downs of modern life.
What makes her classes unique is the sense of community she intentionally weaves in. Encouraging laughter, conversation, and interconnectedness, she finds that it helps everyone to connect mind, body, and spirit in a truly harmonic way. She believes that having a strong sense of community is the golden ticket to optimal health and well-being.
Bett Jo and her family reside in the Lehigh Valley, and when she’s not on her yoga mat you can find her creating art through various modalities of craftwork, reading, and spending time with her husband, daughters, family and friends.
