Checkpoint One Coaching is not counseling or therapy. Coaching is a supportive and collaborative partnership where the coach creates opportunities for an individual to explore personal challenges and encourages them to find solutions and achieve their goals. If counseling/therapy is not an immediate need, but stress management and self care goals are still a much needed focus, then coaching is a great option.

Yoga Nidra is a guided meditation that specializes in allowing the mind chatter and the physical body to rest. Checkpoint One Yoga Nida encourages individuals to get into a comfortable position: a chair or laying down comfortably on the floor, couch, bed, etc. There is no actual physical movement, the focus is on rest and relaxation. One hour of Yoga Nidra has been studied and showed to be equal to 3-4 hours of sleep. Pre-recorded audios and video links are also available for download so individuals can listen at their convenience.
If you are a first responder, nurse, doctor, and/or any status Military interested in learning more about Yoga Nidra, and how it can help you, please Contact;
