Nadeen Al-Jijakli Abbass
Originally from New York City, Nadeen came to yoga 16+ years ago when a coworker gave her a prenatal yoga DVD. She is 200-hour trauma-informed yoga teacher, a Reiki practitioner, and Sound Healing Facilitator. Her aim is to support others in embracing more REST and balance in life, cultivating self-care practices, and rediscovering their own creativity and authentic selves. Nadeen also works to bring yoga and mindfulness to underserved schools in Cleveland and to make yoga accessible to caregivers of families with special needs. She finds herself consistently drawn to the Rose Quartz stone, which she finds calming and purifying, especially in opening the heart space and bringing deep inner healing, self-acceptance and self-love.
