Danielle Matthews

Danielle began practicing Yoga Nidra regularly after a traumatic brain injury pulled her
away from the life she once knew and initiated a profound inner awakening. Through daily
practice she experienced relief from anxiety and depression and discovered a deep sense of peace
within, inspiring her to study the practice more deeply and share it with others.

In 2015 she completed both the I AM Yoga Nidra™ Certification and Advanced Certification at
the Amrit Yoga Institute and became a regular assistant in these programs. In 2021 she moved to
the institute to immerse herself more fully in the teachings of Gurudev Shri Amritji and the
Integrative Amrit Method.

In 2023 she traveled to Iceland to complete I AM Yoga Therapy™ Certification with Kamini
Desai, where she experienced a powerful initiation into the therapeutic impact of this modality.
Danielle now offers personalized Yoga Nidra and Yoga Therapy sessions, as well as private
retreats designed to help students reconnect with the same inner stillness and insight that
transformed her own life.
