Molly Sommerhalder
Founder/Creator of Swan in the Lotus Yoga and Wellness, LLC
Women's Embodiment Coach and Bhakti-Infused Yoga Teacher
Certified Holistic Wellness Coach (IAWP), Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT), Certified Senior/Chair Yoga,
Certified Aerial Yoga Level 1 and Certified Yoga for Pregnancy and Birth
Molly came to the practice of yoga and wellness over 20 years ago. She uses her experience to guide stressed out women who struggle with pelvic floor issues to find balance and courage so they can transition to live a sacred and healthy life. After years of career burnout, digestive issues (IBS), emotional and physical pain from a pelvic floor condition, and an unhealthy mindset from stress and anxiety, she has learned that she holds the power to heal herself and she strives to live a holistic lifestyle. Molly engages this knowledge and experience to support other women who are finally ready to put themselves first.
Molly has traveled around the country to learn Bhakti (Devotion) Yoga + Mantra with key teachers including Girish, Brenda McMorrow, Krishna Das, Sean Johnson and the Wild Lotus Band and more. She uses lessons in mantra, yoga, wellness and her holistic health practitioner background to guide people to healing, transformation, and peace. She has helped over 150 people learn how to take charge of their health. Clients have said about her, "She truly cares about her clients and it showed with every check-in we had. I would definitely recommend Molly to anyone!"
After her journey through healing her pelvic floor condition, she learned ways to support women to understand their pelvic floor, hormonal imbalances, and learn to find solutions for a healthy life through yoga/wellness. She also has experience in helping with menopausal issues and post-birth conditions. She has worked with over 100 women and they have said “Thank you, Molly, for opening the door to something that shouldn't be kept behind closed doors. You are a champion for all women!"
