Private sessions for individuals and couples exploring relational growth, contemplative practice, and the integration of awakening into everyday life.

“Yoga is Skill in Action”

— Chapter 2, Verse 50 of the Bhagavad Gita

Insight matters. But insight alone does not necessarily change the way we relate.

You can understand your attachment patterns, recognize your childhood conditioning, have profound experiences in meditation, attend retreats, explore psychedelics, or encounter states of spiritual awakening—and still find yourself repeating familiar patterns when intimacy, fear, conflict, or vulnerability enters the room.

At some point, what we understand has to become something we can practice.

Private Relationship Yoga sessions create a space for exactly that.

Together, we can slow down the living patterns of relationship and examine them as they happen: how you respond to discomfort, how you communicate what you need, where you become defensive, how assumptions form, what happens when you feel rejected or misunderstood, and which protective strategies appear when connection feels uncertain.

Rather than only talking about relationship, we can practice new ways of relating.

Depending on what you are exploring, sessions may include:

mindful dialogue and communication practice;
guided relational exercises and role-play;
contemplative and embodied awareness;
reflection on attachment and learned relational patterns;
working with difficult emotions and protective strategies;
inquiry into beliefs, identity, shadow, and ego development;
meditation, breath, and other yogic practices;
exploring how contemplative insight can become lived behavior.

I think of myself less as someone who possesses the answers to your life and more as a facilitator and practice partner—someone who can help you notice what is happening, offer reflection, introduce useful frameworks, and create opportunities to respond differently.

Relationship Yoga is not psychotherapy, and it does not attempt to replace appropriate mental-health or medical care. Its focus is contemplative education, relational practice, self-inquiry, and integration.

We can also explore the more subtle dimensions of contemplative experience. Yogic and tantric traditions have developed rich frameworks for understanding breath, embodiment, attention, the heart, and what they describe as subtle energy. We can work experientially with these practices without requiring you to adopt a particular metaphysical explanation for what you experience.

The larger principle is simple:

Awakening is not the end of development.

A mature spiritual life may also ask us to examine our unresolved patterns, develop greater emotional and relational capacity, participate more fully in the world, and learn to embody what we have glimpsed in moments of clarity.

Or, in the language that has influenced Relationship Yoga: wake up, grow up, clean up, show up, and open up.

Private sessions offer a place to practice that integration—so that greater awareness can become greater skill in the relationships and situations that actually make up your life.

Bring what you are struggling with. Bring what you are becoming. We’ll work with what is here.

Client Testimonials

Johnathan Q.

I had the privilege of being introduced to Cory by my coach, during a time when I was really in a lot of pain. Going through a serious identity crisis and struggle with injury and pain in my body as well as a breakup of a codependent and toxic relationship. There was a lot of muck in my life and when I was introduced to Cory I was immediately taken aback by his presence and his honesty and kindness and love and you can just feel it from Cory, right from the get-go. And I knew immediately that I wanted his help and have him in my life. Working with Cory with Chakra work - we worked up the root, sacral, solar plexus, and heart chakra over the course of 6 months or so and it was so tremendously supportive and impactful for me in what was a long healing year. I always felt heard, supported, loved and championed by him. I felt like I was able to clear a lot of energy that was stuck and holding me back - burdening me. It all released with the tapping energy work we did and we were able to open up my mind to different ways of being that were more supportive and more open to a loving, healed and content existence. And I’m incredibly grateful for this work and I would highly recommend it to anybody who is going through a hard time and needs support healing and moving through challenging circumstances. Anyone who wants to open up to a healthier and happier way of being. Anybody who is curious to get into some energy work - I can’t think of a better way to release the past than with this course. Have a chat with Cory and you will immediately feel what I’m talking about. Thank you!

Before I began doing chakra work with Cory, I had been in talk therapy for a couple of years. A lot of issues and old wounds were addressed and worked through during that time, but I continued to feel very weighed down and stagnant energetically. I became interested in somatic healing and energy work, so I reached out to Cory. Cory taught me so much! His gentleness and loving spirit, as well as the structured process he took me through, allowed me to show up, relax, trust the process, and follow his guidance. He created an incredibly safe space for me to connect with myself, to feel deeply, and to move stuck energy. It was incredible. I was always telling everyone that would listen about it-- and I still am! Cory has an amazing gift that words can't adequately describe. Working with him changed my life. I'm eternally grateful.

There is so much I could say about my experience of working with Cory, but the primary thing that sticks out for me and holds so much value for me is how comprehensive his teachings were. I’ve been on my spiritual journey and road to awakening for quite a long time and I’ve done a lot of work on my own—reading books, listening to podcasts, etc. but I got to a point where I realized I could only take myself so far and I needed some help. I needed some guidance, some one-on-one assistance because though there was a lot that I discovered on my own, I realized I had skipped steps and missed key things that blocked my awakening experience. And the thing that’s great about Cory’s teachings is how they are a guided, step-by-step process that walks you through each little area of your life, each little lesson that opens you up to a whole new way of seeing things. His meditations became something I really relied on and enjoyed doing. I was a meditator before but his teaching and meditations took me to a whole new level because they are such a high quality. So I highly recommend him and since I finished working with him, life has opened up for me in a truly beautiful and miraculous way. I’m so grateful.

Life has a way of delivering what you need... After engaging with traditional talk therapy consistently for many, many months - I was looking for another path through the personal roadblocks I was experiencing; a different path to emotional freedom. Spend 15 minutes with Cory and you will feel whether or not he should be part of your journey forward. Cory has a gifted ability to show up with a genuine, loving presence capable of hearing and seeing you exactly where you are - wherever you are in your journey and in that moment. He is both knowledgeable and agile in his unique ability to skillfully leap all over the healing and spiritual growth spectrum; He can draw on traditional psychology models on one end (if that’s what you need in the moment) and pure energetic, loving presence and spiritual awakening support on the other end (if that’s what you’re ready for). Cory can make a positive impact in any life that chooses to truly show up.

I knew Cory was what I needed during my first call with him. I could just feel his loving presence had something to teach me that I desperately needed. He’s just so happy! Little did I know how much my life would change for the better by working with him for the six months I did. He taught me how to love myself and my son in ways I didn’t realize I was capable of. He helped me heal wounds from my past and see how my ego was sabotaging my dating prospects. He is a great listener, great teacher, and his meditations are golden. I enjoyed processing life stuff with him—just having someone there to validate and see me was really valuable. He’s a really loving and accepting coach. I highly recommend him!

I’m so grateful for you, Cory! I’ve been living through the most difficult year of my life, every hour of every day was filled with pain, suffering, the inability to eat all the food I love, going from specialist to specialist, in and out of the ER, being dismissed by doctors, and within our first call together you were right on the money with your diagnosis! It’s thanks to you that I was able to finally get the right medication and be on a path of recovery. Working with you has given me the will to live! I can see real progress in how I feel every single day whereas before nothing I tried was working and none of the doctors knew what was going on. Thank you so much!! You saved my life 🙏
