Hello there!
BEFORE WE GET TOO FAR INTO THIS...
My name is Dr. Amanda Brees, EdD E-RYT500 CIAYT YACEP
After a twenty year battle with developmental trauma (and all the painful things that follow) I found a faster method...
Once I put the Yoga of Relationship™ method into practice, I began healing from the deep-rooted issues survivors face: somatic symptoms, unhealthy relationships, and unworthiness. By blending biblical naturopathy, pastoral counseling, Christian yoga therapy, and transpersonal psychology—the same approach that inspired AA—I now help others address the roots of their attachment, betrayal, and substance-related trauma. Through the wisdom of a Higher Power, we work toward recovery and healing from complex trauma.
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
— Jesus | Matthew 11:28-30, mSG
So, what is yoga of relationship?
What does yoga have to do with relationship? Bhakti yoga translates as 'yoga of relationship' in English. It's devotional yoga therapy.
As a Biblical naturopath, pastoral counselor, & yoga therapist, I'm passionate about the intersection between faith, meditation, and traumatology. I'll never forget the moment in my life that hurt enough to finally surrender to God's will and stop running from my personal battle with childhood trauma and sexual assault: the moment I realized that I was now a twice divorced single mom despite extensive efforts to heal.
I felt deep shame at not being able to find happily ever after...like I was broken.
Knowing about the problem didn't fix it.
I used to think that one more degree or healing certification would somehow 'fix' this unsettling feeling that I was uniquely beyond repair. Heck, I'd literally written a dissertation on familial trauma!
What I found was that I needed a streamlined method of actually implementing the work without a bunch of mental gymnastics.
Familial & attachment trauma is complex.
One of my mentors explained to me that it could indeed take the rest of my life to face this heartbreak that was running my life as an adult survivor.
I spent my twenties as an undiagnosed Army vet with PTSD struggling with relational chaos, housing instability, and financial hopelessness. I spent the better part of ten years as a single mom.
My life is living proof that healing is possible.
Standing on the other side now with calm, stable relationships, financial security, and deep faith, I can now see there was a faster way to move out of the darkness and into the light.
It wasn't just one more self-help book: it's a streamlined process of doing one's own relational trauma work to also help others.
Where next?
There is nothing wrong with you.
Despite what it might feel like now, you are already worthy of love. You don't need another self-help guru to tell you to love yourself. You need a step-by-step practical method to easily implement changes to move towards recovery without guesswork.
You're not alone on this journey.
I'm here for you and so is God. Even if you've been hurt by religion, connecting with a power outside of yourself is paramount in healing. Divine love is the only way to finally overcome the chaos of romantic human love in insecure attachment.
It's time to try something new.
I used to be the DIY queen. I would only ask for help if I absolutely could not do it myself. This is actually a trauma response! You are worthy of investing in the marriage, family, and motherhood life of your dreams--without delay.
