This isn’t a 31-day challenge to prove how disciplined you are.
It’s 31 days of practices you can use to reconnect with your body.

The Perfect Yoga Practice for Your Midlife Body
Your body doesn’t need another punishment disguised as a wellness challenge.
It doesn’t need you to become more flexible, more disciplined, more motivated or more “in shape” before you start.
It needs some attention.
Some movement.
Some strength.
Some breathing.
Some freaking rest. 😂
RESTORE is 31 days of yoga designed specifically with the midlife body in mind.
And here’s the best part:
You don’t have to do all 31 days.
Yep. I’m saying it right up front.
Miss a day? Keep going.
Need a rest day? Take one.
Only have 10 minutes? Do what you can.
Feel amazing and want to practice longer? Go for it.
There is no gold star for perfect.
This is yoga, not a hostage situation.
Your body isn’t a problem to fix.
It’s a body to reconnect with.
“I began my yoga sessions with Laura at the age of 60. I had no yoga experience and I have no flexibility to say the least. From my very first yoga session, I was at complete ease.”

31 Days. 5 Ways to RESTORE.
I’ve organized the month so we’re not just randomly doing yoga every day.
Each week has a purpose:
Week 1
RELEASE
Release the tension your body has been carrying.
We’re starting with the places that tend to collect all the stress of being a grown-ass woman. 😂
Hips. Shoulders. Neck. Upper back. Spine.
We’ll move, stretch and breathe our way into a little more space in your body.
The goal isn’t to push harder. It’s to feel better.
Week 2
REGULATE
Calm your nervous system and create space to breathe.
This week gets slower.
Gentler.
More grounding.
We’ll explore breath, slower movement and practices that help you step out of constant doing and reconnect with simply being.
Because sometimes what your body needs isn’t another thing to accomplish.
It’s a chance to exhale.
Week 3
RE-ENERGIZE
Build calm, sustainable energy from the inside out.
Not frantic, caffeinated, MUST GET ALL THE THINGS DONE energy.
😂
I’m talking about the kind of energy that makes you feel more alive without completely draining your battery.
We’ll use movement, breath and yoga to help you reconnect with your body’s natural energy.
Week 4
RECLAIM
Feel strong, capable and confident in your body.
Because midlife isn’t the time to start making yourself smaller.
It’s time to remember what your body can do.
We’ll work with strength, balance, mobility and stability.
And hopefully you’ll have a few moments of:
“Oh yeah. This body can DO things.”
Because it can.
Week 5
RELAX
Three delicious days to slow down, soften and simply be.
No pushing.
No fixing.
No optimizing.
No trying to squeeze one more thing out of yourself.
Just restorative, nourishing practices designed to help you finish the month feeling grounded, cared for and a little more at home in your body.
Your body doesn’t have to be flexible to do yoga.
In fact…
That’s kind of the point.
Maybe your hips aren’t what they were at 25.
Maybe your shoulders have been slowly migrating toward your ears.
Maybe your neck is cranky.
Your upper back is tight.
Your balance has gotten a little…creative.
Or maybe you’re simply realizing that your body needs a different kind of movement than it did twenty years ago.
Good.
That’s exactly who this is for.
RESTORE isn’t about forcing your body into impressive shapes.
It’s about creating a body that feels better to live in.
More:
- Mobile
- Stable
- Comfortable
- Capable
Are you ready to commit to your health and well-being?
This isn’t my first yoga rodeo. 🙂
I’ve been teaching yoga for more than 30 years and working in the wellness field for decades.
I’ve taught yoga since I was 22 years old, worked with women at all stages of life, and spent years studying the body, movement, wellness and what actually helps people create sustainable change.
So when I say this month is designed with the midlife body in mind, I mean it.
These aren’t 31 videos I created yesterday and threw into a challenge.
RESTORE draws from my library of hundreds of yoga videos already on YouTube, curated specifically for this experience.
I’ve done the sorting for you.
You just show up.
You Don’t Need to…
❌ Be flexible
❌ Be “good at yoga”
❌ Have a yoga body
❌ Have tons of energy
❌ Own a bunch of fancy equipment
❌ Practice every single day
❌ Start over because you missed a day
❌ Touch your toes
You just need a body.
And you’ve already got one.

Meet Your Teacher
Hi, I’m Laura.
I’ve been teaching fitness, wellness, and yoga for years.
For my entire career, 80% or more of my students have been women in midlife and now I am a middleaged woman.
I understand more than ever how crucial Yoga is to helping us feel so much better in our bodies.
My goal isn’t to help you “perform” yoga.
My goal is to help you understand it and how to use it to help yourself feel better.
The series includes emails – I’ll send a few throughout the 31 days to help you understand the videos and share extra resources.
I want to help you move differently and feel differently.
💚 Laura
