SARA BARGER

Hello, my name is Sara Barger. I started doing yoga in 2001 only to obtain physical fitness while striving to meet unrealistic beauty standards. Shortly after that, my life took a turn. I went through some dark times of bad decisions, addiction, and running from pain. In 2012 I decided to take steps to save my life and instinctively started up my yoga practice. As I immersed myself in a yoga practice I learned that yoga was much more than just a physical practice- it is emotional, mental, and spiritual. I was literally learning how to heal myself! I gained the tools to become present in my body, stay in the moment (let shit go), and honor my breath. I learned how to connect to myself and allow my true self to step forward- to love myself and in return love others more deeply. In August of 2018, I completed my Yin Yoga Teacher Training with the talented Paul Terrell, Yoga on Yamhill founder! Since then I have been sharing my love for yoga. This 90-minute class will be restorative yoga with reiki (you can choose not to receive the reiki) for people who identify as a person in recovery.
