Laura Victoria Sanchez
Mentor. Yogini. Peace builder.
I am Laura Victoria, and I believe that life is too short to live it with anxiety and fear. I want to take advantage of this life to learn, grow and above all enjoy the journey.
I am here because I believe that we can live a more peaceful life than the one we currently lead. I see yoga and mindfulness as tools to reduce the anxiety of the modern world and learn to stay calm in the face of chaos.
I want us to use these tools to build together a self-care community, where we feel calm and find spaces for connection that regulate our nervous system.
Thanks for being here.
Construction of Peace interior and exterior
Deeply interested in the interplay of peacebuilding and yoga, I decided to complement my conflict resolution education with various yoga teacher trainings since 2020.
I see yoga and meditation as a path to self-knowledge, a complementary intervention path for people with nervous system dysregulation, as well as a space for forgiveness and reconciliation.
Through my own experience with generalized anxiety and depression, I have learned and cultivated many tools to help myself and others feel more compassion for themselves, make room in the body to work through difficult emotions, and get to know themselves better through crises.
I am here to accompany those who are in the process of developing a greater understanding of themselves and managing stressors and life challenges through yoga and mindfulness.
I offer guidance on trauma-sensitive yoga and mindfulness to stressed populations, as well as people experiencing long-term traumatic stress such as exhaustion, burnout, and anxiety.
