Eileen Manela

In addition to being a certified 200 hour Kripalu trained yoga instructor, Eileen also practices as a Psychotherapist. She feels fortunate to find joy and purpose in her career, which brings her much fulfillment.

Eileen's yoga journey began in college when she took her first yoga class and knew she wanted to explore more. She was inspired by the spiritual roots and physical benefits of a practice which originated thousands of years ago. This fascination continues as Eileen remains committed to expanding and deepening her practice, bringing ancient wisdom to modern needs in both her teaching and psychotherapy practice.

She calls Litchfield her home after several decades in New York City and enjoys the many trails for hiking and biking and sometimes, just likes to just sit, breathe, or read at the many local bodies of water. Eileen is the proud mother of adult twin sons and is fortunate to be able to travel to Denver and Brooklyn for frequent visits with them.
