Yoga is not simply a physical exercise; it is an invitation to explore the gift of God's peace. The practice of yoga is an opportunity for embodied spirituality. It is an invitation for worship, growth, and self-discovery. No matter your age, size, experience, or stage of life, with your heart set on your Creator, your yoga practice can indeed become a holy practice. There is often a misunderstanding that the practice of yoga is a religion; it is not. Yoga is a spiritual discipline, much like prayer, fasting, and meditation.
My own yoga and meditation practice as well as my teacher trainings invite a style that focuses on our creator, God. As a practitioner, I am grateful for depth and love of the Trinity. I incorporate my 12+ years of yoga practice as well as my various yoga teacher trainings into my retreat settings, spiritual direction sessions, and yoga & meditation classes offering safe space for your own spiritual practice.
Join me for spirit-filled yoga & meditation classes in Lebanon, TN at Bloom Yoga Studio.

Whitney R. Simpson
Advocate, Author, Retreat Leader, Spiritual Director, Yoga & Meditation Teacher
Whitney began practicing yoga as part of her recovery after stroke and brain surgery in 2005. She was hesitant a yoga practice could ease her chronic pain. Needless to say, she was wrong. Embracing the practices of yoga and meditation have been foundational for her recovery. Prior to completing her first 200-hour yoga teacher training and specialty trainings, Whitney pursued graduate work and a certificate in Spiritual Formation (CSF) focusing on retreats and spiritual direction. She recently published a devotional with Upper Room Books. Whitney is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200), Christian Yoga Association Master Trainer (RCYA-MT), and offers yoga & meditation as well as ecumenical spiritual direction sessions and discernment opportunities for individuals and groups. She hosts contemplative retreats and workshops and works with survivors of human trafficking, longing to create safe space for all. She is the founder of Exploring Peace Ministries, www.ExploringPeace.com and co-owner at www.BloomYoga.Studio. Connect with her on social media at @WhitRSimpson.
