My name is Veronica Carpenter, and I live in Audubon, NJ. I am a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT).

​

I help humans find balance —practically and playfully—through yogic practices and principles, yoga therapy, spiritual guidance, inner child healing, and shadow work. I offer both online and in-person services for all ages.

​

I wear various wings in my service to the world around me. My offerings for children focus on fostering healthy emotions and nurturing their growth, drawing on my background in relationship-based therapy. For adults, I provide support to help them heal their relationship with themselves, fostering self-love & authenticity.

​

I live and teach by the core values of loving kindness, compassion, truth, authenticity, and playfulness. I teach under the name Blissful Butterfly Yoga.

 

The path of the butterfly takes courage. It begins as a caterpillar, which turns to goo inside a chrysalis, only to be rebuilt by the grace of the Divine into a butterfly. Then, through its own effort, the butterfly pushes its way out of the chrysalis, strengthening its wings so it can fly free.

 

This mirrors life. Metaphorically, we are churned into mush by the waves of life, time and time again. But it is through the grace of the Divine, along with our own will and determination, that we can transform these shattering experiences into stages of growth, leading us to live in alignment with our most blissful selves.

 

Through my writing, blog, videos, social media presence, and conversations with my students, I share bits of my story—recovering from heartbreak, developmental and spiritual traumas, and living with androgenic alopecia— to inspire others to do the work of transforming times of crisis into tools for cultivating strength, courage, deeper understanding and graceful resilience.

 

All the services I provide are designed to make the ancient practices of yoga accessible to everyone, with a trauma-informed lens. Please visit the "All Offerings" tab to see the full range of my services.

With love & gratitude,
