What people are saying…

The teaching style has deepened my understanding of pregnancy yoga. I had done the poses many times while pregnant and totally got them physically ,but during this training, I got way more of an energetic understanding. For me it has been my own internal work. I’m so happy to have cleared out some of my baggage so I can be of service to others.

This course was very, very valuable to me. I’m so happy that I was completely unreasonable and said yes to signing up. I feel like I’ve gotten so aligned with my purpose. My relationships are transformed and I’m contributing to others. So happy!

“I began working with Kristen because I wanted to grow my business as a healer and teacher, but what I have gained over the past year has been so much more. Working with Kristen has helped me to totally transform my perspective on life and elevate my consciousness to new levels. Kristen is a true aquarian teacher who lovingly guides and empowers her students. Working with her has led me back to my Self and allowed me to finally see and let go of the stories that had been holding me back. Kristen empowered me to see that I am my own best teacher and healer and that all of the answers I had been looking for were already within me.”

“Working with Kristen has helped me face deep rooted fears and insecurities that I have feared facing on my own. She has also been a great example for me, as someone entering the healing world too, of how badass healers can be. I had so many stigmas and negative ideas about what I thought healers were supposed to be. These stereotypes kept me away from this work for a long time, because I thought I would have to give away all my strength, charm, sparkles and power to help others. Now of course I realize this is crazy, but by observing Kristen I realized that I get to bring myself into the work and I will be able to do it in my own healthy, vibrant and unique way. Her example gave me permission to be so many wonderful things along with this healing, without sacrificing my needs and desires. (you also seem like you are amazing at somehow keeping clear boundaries for yourself yet making soooo much space for others)

A meeting with Kristen is a meeting with my own sense of KNOWING. It’s more than visualizations, affirmations, or desires to believe, its meeting the KNOWING that lives inside my core which Kristen evokes from within me to come out and play.”

K.Q.

Hi Kristen- I was planning on coming to class last Mon. But woke up feeling extra tired and was getting Braxton Hicks so I didn’t make it. Later that evening, contractions were getting closer together and I was admitted at 11pm. 12 hours later and with 3 pushes, Baby J.R. was anxious & entered this world 3 1/2 weeks earlier than expected via VBAC! He was 7.4 lbs @ 21″.

I did it and it was the best decision I’ve made for myself, baby, and delivery experience.

I want to thank you (and all the moms) for giving me the strength and courage to stay committed to my decision despite the little support I received outside of your class. It was an experience I’ll never forget. We’re recovering and transitioning well!! Stella loves her bro! She wants to hug and kiss him every minute.

To put words to my experience working with Kristen, is like trying to find words to describe your most profound spiritual experience. Because that’s what working with her has been and continues to be: one of the most profound spiritual experiences of my life. These days “healer” and “shaman” are words we hear often. But to find a true healer- one who can lead you across the most treacherous threshold with grace and strength- is as rare and precious as encountering soulmate love. That is who Kristen is, a true healer of the greatest magnitude. I’ve been able to share things with Kristen I was too ashamed to reveal to anyone. Her compassion, wisdom, and support demolishes shame and reveals the gem of growth and transformation available in the most harrowing times. Being in her presence is nourishing and inspirational, and with the depth and breadth of tools she brings to the table, there is no limit to what is possible.

I’ve also had the unique privilege of serving alongside Kristen as a birth doula. Over my 7 year practice, I’ve found that birth reveals the truth of who we are. There is nowhere to hide in the labor room. When Kristen stepped in, the whole room shifted. The mother, who had been having a hard time, was instantly calmed by Kristen’s soothing and reassuring energy. Not only did Kristen nurture the laboring woman, she supported everyone in the room- the father, the grandmother, the nursing staff. I was supposed to be there for Kristen, but when she noticed I was tired, she gave me an exquisite neck massage. That one example (and I have many like it) says everything about the kind of person Kristen is.

“Your intense devotion to your students is powerfully supportive and I appreciate all the moments I spent learning from and with you. You create a rare space for your students to bare their hearts in order to sort themselves out and find their own power again. You call us on our bullshit too, in the kindest of ways. Thank you for facilitating the restructuring of our foundations and being a shining example of self loving and committed devotion.”

My water broke last Saturday night at 2:30 but didn’t get contractions until Sunday. Stayed at home but labor kept stalling. Went to Kaiser midnight on Monday – they left me alone for a bit but starting pushing C-Section on Tuesday morning. Had to fight for VBAC for another 24 hours. Pushed him out 7:36 am Wednesday morning – 79 hours after my water broke. 8lbs 6 oz 22 inches, Mason is here. Thank you for all of your support, I count you as one of the people that gave me the strength to fight for the VBAC.

“Kristen’s mentorship program offers a deep dive into consciousness as well as access to a soulful community of her mentees. In addition to private 1:1 sessions with Kristen, weekly calls with this community have helped me to feel supported and connected through deep, mind-expanding conversations. I have also learned so much and expanded my abilities as a teacher and healer through numerous Reiki attunements and yoga teacher trainings. Committing to this mentorship program was an invaluable investment in myself that has helped me to expand my perspective and tap into my own limitless potential in order to better serve others.”

Kristen was a part of all three of my pregnancies. When I first walked in to Kristen’s studio, I knew this was the place for me and my first son to grow together and we did! Kristen’s voice, guidance, the poses and meditations she led us through, her gentleness and knowledge of our journey always brought me comfort. Her yoga classes really do strengthen and stretch your body, mind and soul. No matter what was happening in my world I could be alone with my baby and myself (with these other wonderful women) and be present.

Because my second delivery was a C section, I assumed that my 3rd would be as well. I hoped to have a V-BAC, but was very nervous for a variety of emotional and medical reasons. Almost like a miracle, I found out that Kristen had just become a doula and so lucky for me, she would be our doula! Quite frankly, I would have loved to have Kristen at all of my deliveries, because as wonderful as a husband is, there is something so special about having a loving centered woman by your side. It was a dream come true and so was my labor. The day before I delivered, Kristen came to my house and we had the most beautiful little yoga session with my children and husband. It was a little welcoming session for the new baby.

The next morning we all met at the hospital. Kristen led us in a meditation as I lay in my husband’s arms and the baby responded with contractions. Another miracle. Kristen was there for every wonderful contraction and it really was wonderful. My baby and I moved together and he descended as I rolled my hips with him inside. He was born in 3 pushes. Kristen is like a sister, mother and Angel all rolled up in one beautiful package. She is strong and gentle. She offers guidance, mantras, songs and meditations that are wise and simple. She is fully and whole heartedly and lovingly present in everything she does. She is a gift and I’m so happy that you might have the opportunity to have her on your journey as well!

The BEST PRENATAL YOGA class ever. Kristen is AMAZING. This class is not only a prenatal yoga class, but also a preparation for birth class. I started going to class at 13 weeks pregnant just to ‘get more flexible’ but got so much more out of the class. I went at least once a week up until 39 weeks pregnant. I had my baby two weeks ago and my labor and delivery was only 3 hours and I am a first time mom. I truly believe that going to this class, as well as doing my ‘homework’ and yoga poses at home influenced my pregnancy and recovery in the most positive way. I learned my body, was attuned at the mental practice that goes into pregnancy and delivery, and was able to adjust and practice all my yoga poses throughout pregnancy (and during labor) to make me feel more comfortable. Please do yourself a huge favor and attend this class consistently. Give it a chance, every class is somewhat different as Kristen adjusts the class based on the needs of the students. Each class session is slightly different, therefore, you are always learning something new. My mom and sisters were amazed at my 3 hours, no epidural, hospital delivery and as well as my recovery (I’m almost at my pre pregnancy weight) and they also think it’s from all of my ‘marathon training’ aka my yoga classes, additional Pilates, and walking that helped my body truly prepare for my little cute yoga baby who just came right out. He did yoga with my for 6 months so I truly think my little one was prepared to come out as well. Please go to this class!!! (P.S. I had never done yoga prior to this class, so it is for all levels. I still can’t touch my toes completely, but I am much better!). Thank you KRISTEN!

“Working with Kristen is safe—safe from judgement but perhaps a bit scary as you peel back the layers in an attempt to discover who you genuinely are. It’s not therapy but I suppose it could be. She doesn’t have the answers to your problems or how to navigate your struggles. Those answers will come from You or from Source—which is really the same thing and Kristen will help you discover You and your connection to Source. Be prepared to discover that you are indeed responsible for much of the way your life is at the moment. That realization may or may not be what you want to hear—Kristen will hold your hand through it—actually and figuratively. I have worked with Kristen in a one-on-one setting and a group setting. The one on one sessions are great. She is direct and loving. “Brutally honest,” is not her approach. Her honesty is always tempered with love and respect.”

A. Lowe

I met Kristen when I randomly took her yoga class. From that first interaction my life has changed, I left crying that day with the realization that there is so much healing to be done and that Kristen is gonna help me. Fast forward two years, I am religiously taking her classes twice a week and just completed her “Planning for Success” book and meetings, and I can honestly say I am feeling great. Through her program, classes and guidance, I now have tools to get through anything that comes my way. I have learned how to breathe and focus. I have learned how to get through stressful issues and how to prevent anxiety from taking over, allowing myself to move forward and be a better me so that I can be a better mother to my children and a better person to those around me. By reading the daily affirmations and meditating like she has taught me, I am able to now do this on my own, even though I know she will always be there to help. I am grateful to have these tools and this book to refer to for extra support in my life.

Less expensive than a chiropractic session and more addictive than a Vicoden (in a good way), the healing vibes of Kristen Eykel’s Yoga Emergency class at Inner Power Yoga releases hunched shoulders, lessens back strain, and soothes the aches and pains of pregnancy. And if you are just a neurotic mess, the soothing incantations of this model- beautiful instructor with 20 years experience in Shamanism, Reiki and Kundalini could calm even the suicidal.

Her candelit class is taught with subtle strains of Indian music playing in the background, accompanying her easy-to-follow instruction; Eykel guides you through relaxing postures that even the tightest of truck drivers can follow. She emphasizes that this is not a “sweat class” (although you will probably sweat) but a class to make you feel better.

“It’s purpose is to bring into your day an energy that you would like to accentuate, or to release something that no longer serves you emotionally or physically,” Eykel explains.

Occasionally, a particular movement can release so much emotion that it’s not uncommon to witness a student burst into tears during the practice.

Heidi Dvorak

I just want to thank you for your understanding and constant support. I know in my heart that taking the pregnancy yoga, immersing myself in female empowerment, and being held in an environment that allowed me to SAFELY work on my teaching space (being able to speak and be heard) were all the stepping stones to this moment..

The fear of persecution has followed me around in many lifetimes and I was finally strong enough to face it and release it. I couldn’t have done it without your guidance.

Even though we were working on pregnancy yoga, it shifted my whole being and you modeled to me that I can be a woman who is empowered and will be listened to when I speak my truth. When I would get scared, I would think back to you and it would give me reassurance that I could face this.

I can’t thank you enough and I am so grateful that I have a teacher who is such a strong woman. With eternal gratitude.

Chevonne

I came in to this program knowing next to nothing about pregnancy/labor and even less about prenatal yoga but after the first day Kristen’s knowledge and passion absolutely blossomed within myself.

The reading materials, lectures, guest speakers and practice teaching/observing has instilled a lot of information, comprehension, confidence, and (in my opinion, most importantly-) passion for this service to provide for our tribe.

Casey Thomas

“In addition to being a yoga and meditation student of Kristen’s for years, I recently booked private sessions with her for myself and my young son after we had been in a serious car accident, hoping to clear out some of the trauma. Not only was her Reiki healing powerful, she took us on a guided visualization and helped me to come to deep realizations about what the trauma had awakened in me, and what could be learned. I left feeling empowered, rather than victimized. I have also brought friends and family to Kristen when they have experienced loss or trapped trauma, and they, too, said it was life changing. Kristen’s work has had a tremendous positive influence on my life and has kept me afloat through some really trying times.”

Hollye Dexter

“Since working with Kristen my business has absolutely blossomed, but the material success that has transpired pales in comparison to the importance of the deep and lasting personal growth that I have experienced. I no longer worry or feel anxiety about the small things, as I am now able to see and tap into the big picture. I have learned how to accept and love myself and in doing so feel empowered to share my gifts with the world. Words simply cannot express how truly grateful I am for Kristen’s support, guidance, and presence on my journey. If you are ready to have a new experience of life, are ready to own and embody your power, and are ready tap into a way of living that feels effortless and free, Kristen is the guide for you.”

S. Schieffelin

Kristen was recommended to me by a friend, to be doula for the birth of my second son, after a fairly traumatic experience with my first son’s birth. Not only did Kristen help to transform my birth experience, she has transformed my life, with her magical blend of hypnosis, Reiki, inspiration and guidance. She helped me reveal to myself my own powerful healing abilities, and has opened up new and exciting possibilities for my life and work. Even though the circumstances of my day-to-day life have not changed dramatically (still have work, kids, husband, etc.), the way I go through it all is radically different– with more confidence, grace, gratitude, hope, and love. Kristen has a beautiful, sacred circle that she has created all around her, and I am so honored to be a part of it, and to bring that amazing energy to the next steps in my own journey. Lots of love to you!

Dr. Bergen Nelson

I met Kristen through her yoga classes and immediately knew she was an exceptional human being. So when I saw she was offering Reiki training I jumped at the opportunity to train with her.

3 Reiki trainings, 2 yoga teacher trainings (200RYT and RPYT), reiki/hypnosis sessions, and 1 year later, and I can confidently say that Kristen’s trainings have transformed me – her trainings invited me to find deeper meaning in my life, allowing me to become a better and more fulfilled human being in every possible way.

I could not recommend Kristen enough. Her teachings are incredibly informative, empowering, and authentic. She has a way about her that no other teacher/mentor can match – she is a true inspiration.

We are blessed to have Kristen in our world!

“Kristen is like a Kundalini boot camp cheerleader pushing you to be your best every breath of the way.” The awareness and knowledge she has for the physical body and body-mind connection make yoga classes with her oh so much more than regular yoga classes. They integrate the physical, emotional,mental, and spiritual bodies so seamlessly. Kristen’s ability to be completely present and focused is contagious and create a true spiritual experience during any class, meditation, or healing session. In addition to all this great spiritual stuff she is also a witty word wizard and I often find myself giggling at some brilliant and hilarious thing she just said wondering how someone can come up with stuff like that so quickly! Her wizardry also comes in handy during guided visualizations where the images and senses she describes become so real I can easily embody these new worlds. Kristen has done her work, and does her work, so I don’t have to worry that her support comes from her ego or her own unresolved issues. This is a big relief when working with a healer or guide since the work is so personal and intimate. This provides a trust and deep respect that I value so much.”

K. Queller

I spent 5 years in California and it definitely helped that Kristen landed on my path. It is one of the most powerful things that has happened to me. I was practicing yoga before but, with her, it transformed into a way of living. I was practicing mindful living, but, with her, it transformed into sparkling joy of gratitude for every day. I was anxious and scared about the future and by attending and carrying out “Planning for success”, magic happened ! My goal was accomplished in many ways. I cannot recommend a better training to see your intentions through.

Her meditation is pure love, divine journey and practical at the same time. Be prepared to go where you never expected, even in your dreams. You will connect with your deepest inner power as well as the entire universe.

Kristen, I am so glad to continue to be part of your community as It always be beneficial. I look forward to be able to stay connected as you share your truly bountifulness to the entire world . I will definitely stay tuned through your website ! France is only 10.000km away, but who cares? You will always be in my thoughts and my heart. My life is more exponential since you became part of my journey.

Now I can see the beauty in everyone and everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have had the pleasure to work with Kristen in various ways – yoga, private session work, and Planning for Success. Kristen is grounded, sensible, sympathetic, and spiritual, embodying a non-judgmental ability to assist one in reaching down deep, to locate the strong inner power we all possess in order to attain our goals. Working with Kristen is a sheer pleasure. She’s an all around lovely human being!

Marina Sustaita

“I Kristen in Yoga class. It was my first Yoga class, and the minute she spoke I knew I was going to love it! You are so inspirational, motivational, powerful and someone special! You were the reason why I was there every Thursday mornings.” ♥️

Taline

“I recommend working with Kristen because she makes you feel like you are the center of her universe while you share space with her. She seems to know exactly what you need and how to help you, even if you can’t articulate it – and even if you don’t know yourself! Through yoga and hypnotherapy, she helped me stay grounded when, while in my third trimester of pregnancy, I grappled with the aftermath of realizing I had been raped ten years before. Kristen fills every room she enters with light and positivity, and her quiet enthusiasm and peaceful energy moored me throughout what was, and still is, a tumultuous and emotional process. It is safe to say that working with Kristen has the potential to change your life!”

“I have learned that I am one with Source—there never can be any separation from me and Source. I absolutely know this when I am working with Kristen. My challenge, is to remember that, day to day minute to minute. I admire Kristen. I am blessed to have her as a teacher. I feel fortunate to call Kristen my friend. Without qualifier or explanation I Love Kristen and I am sure you will as well.

MAGIC. DIVINE. PEACE. LOVE. DISCOVERY. MANIFESTATION. GODDESS. CREATIVITY. COLLABORATION. CO-CREATION. INTIMACY. REVERENCE. JOY. TEARS. ANGELS. WARRIOR. TREASURE. MEDITATION. SPIRIT.”

Andre

Shortly after I met Kristen, I learned her philosophy as a teacher was to Prod, Poke, Inspire and Elevate her students! And I can say she has accomplished that with me.

My introduction to Kristen was through a Kundalini Yoga course. Her knowledge of yoga, chakras, breath energy, etc. was impressive. But what really got to me was her love, dedication, and belief in her students. She inspired, in me, a craving to study more, to realize my true nature!

And yes, through her array of skills as a Shaman, Reiki Master, spiritual and physical Yoga teacher, hypnotherapist and more, she has prodded and poked me to move on from my self-imposed limitations to see that I really can achieve my goals. I have had other teachers but never have I been so kindly and effectively pushed along on the Path.

Changes that I have seen by following her guidance have helped me to accept my humanity, to be less upset over my mistakes or those of others, not to fear new challenges, willingness to assert my truths with others, confidence that my directions are unfolding properly (even if I cannot see the final outcome) and more joy in all life experiences.

With Kristen, I feel I have not only found a great teacher but also a very supportive confidant. She is that close with all her students! Awesome teacher, incredible guide and mentor, wonderful friend!

Namaste Kristen!

Stuart

“I found Kristen at her Kundalini yoga class. It was so personable and touching when I felt so isolated in LA. After taking her 6 week course, I discovered how to better channel my energy into patience, awareness, and self love. After much growth, I have become a more centered and grounded person. “

Angela Nguyen

“I stumbled upon Kristen’s prenatal yoga class at a highly transitional time in my life. Just having moved to a new city and going through the motions (both physically and emotionally) with my first pregnancy, she came into my life at the perfect time. The first time I took her class I showed up just for a bit of self care but walked away feeling like I’d found the support and guidance I never realized I needed! I was lucky enough to have Kristen as a yoga teacher and mentor for both pregnancies and there are no words to describe how supported and confident I felt knowing she was there. She helped me though some of the toughest weeks and made the good ones feel even more magical. She is truly a special person and I feel so lucky to have met her.”

Andrea Seib

“I’ve been really going through a lot, but I’ve always thought you were special and have great energy❤️”

Victoria Binetti

I have taken several of Kristen’s prenatal yoga classes and they are nothing less than a treat for both body and mind. The most memorable class I took, however, was at the end of my second pregnancy. I was very close to my due date and told her I was ready to deliver. Kristen guided me though a wonderful class that left me with the strength and energy I needed to have my baby. The next night I went into labor. I used the poses she taught me while I labored naturally at home and in the hospital. I had a wonderful birth experience (something I never thought was possible after my frst birth experience.) I will always be grateful I went to her class the day before I had my little boy.

Ayr Rein

I’m thrilled and privileged that I got to experience labor. It was strangely beautiful and I was so in the zone throughout the whole experience. The practice that I shared with you in your class was so amazingly helpful in keeping me centered and calm, the postures really helped me get through those contractions, And let me tell you, I was the squatting queen!

Thank you Kristen, for being such an amazing support on this journey. You truly are a special teacher and spirit & are the kind of yoga teacher that literally transforms the air and energy in the room. You create a truly honest, sacred, and inspired experience, what yoga is supposed to be.

You have such extensive knowledge and infectious passion for your work and for life, what a lovely gift to women you are!

Lisa Roumain-Smith

“Kristen is a goddess in human form. She’s like a Queen of the Amazonians with out all the war and blood stuff but with the fierce, focused, fearless, warrior-ness of a great leader. Kristen has been a pillar of support for me on so many levels. Her ability to hold space and bring the community together feel truly divine. Her open heart is abundantly available to be with the community and to dialogue authentically. Her teachings are that of a master which you can search the whole world through to find. Her commitment to integrity has paved the way for me to live my truth deeper and fuller. She has inspired me to ask myself some very real questions and open up my ability to listen and receive answers, while leaving the judgements behind. Her ability to clearly see past surface issues and to boldly and directly go straight to the root of the issue hits me every time. Her wisdom is solid and being in her presence is such a privilege. She is like a great spiritual guide that lives inside me somewhere that I can call upon during dark nights (bright ones too) even when she is thousands of miles away.”
