Supporting Resilience with Yoga Therapy: The Relinquish Story
Founded in 2017 in Austin, Texas, relinquish yoga and wellness provides yoga therapy for individuals experiencing burnout, complex chronic illness, or the long-term effects of trauma, as well as mentoring for yoga professionals. The company applies trauma-informed somatic tools, embodiment and breathwork, neuroplasticity practices, and lifestyle wellness coaching to support recovery and beyond. In late 2024, Embodied Resilience, an online membership, was born out of a desire to make recovery accessible to a broader audience. The company’s mission is to use the therapeutic tools of yoga to empower others, especially those with complex health issues, to thrive. Guiding values include compassion, presence, and collaboration.
