As a Certified Professional Coach (CPC), Lori Haas, has a passion and specialty in empowering overwhelmed and stressed-out women, healthcare professionals, and organizations by fostering Self~Other Care Toolboxes for overall well-being. Her coaching style helps clients hone in on their key challenges to create a “focus of change” through positive, action-oriented change strategies and tools” in alignment with their goal(s). A snapshot view of the change process is her equation ‘Intention + Attention + Practiced Action = Change’. Her blend of tools, in collaboration with client goals, also comes for an enlightened view of looking at Internal and External “Saboteurs” ie perfectionist, procrastinator, and critic, etc that block or create barriers to achieving goals and ways to create Internal and External “Supporters” to enhance stepping into truly how clients want to be feeling, experiencing and embracing change.  This a simplified goal version she calls Vision. A favorite compliment Lori received many years ago is that she is like Mary Poppins and has a tool for many challenges!

Along with being a CPC, Lori is a Certified Master Level Yoga Teacher/Therapist (CYT) with 500+ hours in Healing Emphasis Yoga Therapeutics and training in trauma informed practices over many years.  She is certified in Applied Polyvagal Theory (neuroscience informed) in Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma (Stress) Recovery as well. Lori founded Yoga Nourishment with a base in yogic philosophy-psychology and a sprinkle of modern-day neuroscience she calls, Mindfulness Based Therapeutic Yoga Tools (breathing and stress release tools, embodied postures to calm, ground, focus, and intentional mindset direction) to foster nourishing Self~Other Care practices.  These practices have empowered many individuals, groups, mental health clinicians, treatment centers, conference participants, and universities.  She has seen the powerful effect of this practice, personally and professionally, for calming the nervous system, fostering self-body acceptance, and developing strategies that lessen stress patterns in the mind and body. In addition, she has a wealth of experience from a background as a mental health clinician and educator with over 30 years with specialties in various areas such as disordered eating/body image struggles, anxiety, codependency, and trauma.
