Led by Kyla Pearce

In this brief practice, we’ll center our attention on our bodies and hearts to inspire a sense of hope. When we lose hope, we often lose sight of what keeps us centered. Join us for a practice to remember our dignity, choose supportive boundaries, and connect with what matters most--all core aspects of inspiring hope for ourselves and others.

Kyla serves as the **Senior Director of Programs**, overseeing the design, implementation, and evaluation of LoveYourBrain programs on a large scale. She has been part of the Pearce family for years, and, following Kevin's accident, played an integral role in the launch of LoveYourBrain. By turning inward through yoga, Kyla believes we learn to be with our whole selves with greater compassion, which is fundamental to wellbeing and inspiring positive social change. Kyla has blended her expertise as a yoga and mindfulness teacher and practitioner, researcher, and advocate to develop evidence-based, TBI-centered yoga curricula, which she trains yoga teachers and clinicians to deliver through yoga studios and health care facilities across the United States and Canada. She teaches the LoveYourBrain Yoga and Mindset programs and co-facilitates LoveYourBrain Retreats across the country. She is also a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Dartmouth College investigating the impact of yoga and meditation for people with neurological conditions.
