Well-Being Guide
I help people reclaim their freedom to move well and stay active, enjoying the things they love. When we move better, we feel better. By improving posture, reducing pain, optimizing energy, and increasing resilience to stress, I guide others to feel at home and at more ease within themselves.
As a postural therapist, movement specialist, yoga teacher and empowerment coach, I am motivated to help people become more health-conscious and live a more vibrant life.
Even after 30 years of doing this work, it is inspiring to witness people rediscover the joy and freedom that comes from being able to stay active and live without pain. Let's face it, when something hurts it is less fun to move and groove through life.
Design a functional body that carries you well through life long term. I believe that inside we are all fun-loving kids who still want to stay active, bike, run, jump, play, crawl and roll around. As grown-ups, we simply forgot how to move freely and enjoy life with a fit body and mind. The good news is, we can relearn these important fundamentals to live a more vibrant, functionally fit life.
Laura divides her time between Quebec, Canada and Cannon Beach, Oregon. She is the co-founder and lead educator at the School of Happiness, an online platform designed to help people develop a lifestyle of happiness and well-being at home and at work. She also sees clients privately for posture alignment therapy at her new location in Cannon Beach, Oregon: The Mend Loft.

LIFESTYLE
Healthy living is multi-dimensional
It encompasses a positive, solution-oriented mindset which includes engaging in uplifting projects that serve others well.
Living with vitality requires daily movement
Ideally outdoors! Keep the body resilient and strong, fueled by whole foods to nourish every cell optimally.
A healthy, happy lifestyle also allows for time to connect
Inner stillness giving the body/mind time to replenish and of course spontaneous play time with loved ones to keep our hearts light and filled with gratitude.
