Amrit Sadhana ~ Vickie Healy, RN, BSN

Certified Yoga Teacher – E-RYT 200, RYT 500, YACEP

I’m actively teaching Yoga classes live online by Zoom. Grateful for opportunities to teach and share!

I’ve always been interested in health, healing and most of all empowering myself and others in self-care practices. During my tenure of more than 40 years as a registered nurse in the clinical setting I delved deep into the study of complementary and integrative medicine practices and became a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner and Yoga Teacher. I am so grateful for all the Yoga teachings I’ve received and for my varied Yoga experience with Dharma, Kripalu and Kundalini Yoga! I integrated the practices into my personal and professional life and am passionate about teaching them to those who are similarly interested.

Website Developer

Years ago, my husband and WordPress Website Developer, Larry Daniele empowered me to create and maintain my own professional website. Over the years I’ve come to know that many of my colleagues do not have websites.

That being said, we’ve heard from our website clients that it can be confusing, time consuming and difficult to get started. So, we’ve made it easy for you to do just that.
