Meditation and Yoga Instructor Cyndi Roberts, from West Hartford, CT
About
I found yoga and meditation in June 2009, at the lowest point of a 12 year battle with bipolar disorder, severe depression, anxiety, and addictions to cigarettes, food, shopping, drugs and alcohol. Both yoga and meditation became powerful tools in my quest to take back control of my life. Over two years later, 80 pounds lighter and free of pharmaceutical medications, I continue to use these tools, along with nutrition and immersion in my artwork to live a happy, healthy, and balanced lifestyle. My life is now free from manic highs, deep depressive lows, crippling anxiety, my many addictions and a lifetime of negative thinking.
It's a complicated world that we live in. When we lose our connection to ourselves, we all suffer. As I have learned from my own journey back to health, the power to heal lies within. I want to share my knowledge of yoga and meditation with those ready to do the work to transform themselves, so they may heal and experience their highest potential.
In my yoga classes, I offer a variety of styles, including guided meditations, both gentle and intense power sequences, and some restorative poses in savasana. My goal is for my students to have a connection with their bodies and what they feel, rather than a connection to their heads and what they think.
I graduated the 200 hour Power yoga teacher training at West Hartford Yoga under Barbara Ruzansky. In addition, I completed the 20 hour Functional Anatomy for Yoga Teachers with Ellen Heed, studied Meditation and Pranayama with Matt Falkowski, Yogic Philosophy with Peter Meadow, and participated in two Enlightenment Intensives. I continue to deepen my practice by studying anatomy, nutrition, meditation, and the eight limbs of yoga.
I am passionate about healthy living, gluten free cooking and baking, music and my artwork, which includes inspirational mixed media pieces, custom tapestries and yoga mat bags. For more information about my art, please visit www.myzenart.com.

Private Sessions
In addition to my class schedule, private sessions are available. After you contact me, you will be emailed a detailed intake form that we will use to help identify your goals and to help me create each session just for you. I will be asking for a brief medical history pertaining to any physical limitations or areas you would like to work on, in addition to what specifically you are looking to gain from your sessions. The first meeting is to review the intake form, and will be 30 minutes at no additional cost. Our second meeting will be the first one hour class written specifically for you.
Rates for private sessions range from $75 to $125 per hour, based upon the location of the session. Please contact me directly at cyndi@yogawithcr.com to setup private sessions.
I am also available to teach at private events, workplaces, schools, charity events, fundraisers, for sports groups, parties, etc.
