Natalie Talk Live With Lauren Walker Yoga & Meditation Expert

Lauren Walker, the author of Energy Medicine Yoga: Amplify the Healing Power of Your Yoga Practice (Sounds True, 2014) and The Energy Medicine Yoga Prescription (Sounds True, 2017). She’s been teaching yoga and meditation since 1997. She created Energy Medicine Yoga (EMYOGA) while teaching at Norwich University. Her goal was to help students have more ease and calm in their lives and access the core part of themselves that is always whole. The huge success of her work there led directly to the publication of her first book. Lauren teaches EMYoga across the United States and internationally.

With the success of EMYoga, Lauren has put her attention on teaching, training teachers, and sharing the powerful and simple tools that she’s gained over the years. She is passionate about healing, building a toxic-free world, and reversing the effects of global warming. Without a healthy environment, we have nothing! You can find her complete schedule at EMYOGA.NET/events.

EMYoga is compatible with all types of yoga and is the only yoga style in the world with its own built-in health care system in the form of thousands of practitioners trained at Donna Eden’s school, Innersource. In the event that you have an issue that is outside the purview of a yoga class, Donna's trained Energy Medicine practitioners work one-on-one to get their clients’ energy working for them.

Lauren was raised in Worcester, Massachusetts, and had an early love for the arts. She published her first poem at age eleven. She went to NYU and majored first in theatre, at Tisch School of the Arts, and then moved on to graduate with a degree in English and creative writing from the Gallatin Division. She turned down a fellowship in publishing to travel the world, in order to gain a different kind of education.
