Dr. JB Rose

Yoga has always been a part of my psyche even before I stepped foot on a mat. When I was sixteen years old I read You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay and the ideas and philosophies in her book changed my life. I became extremely interested in alternative forms of healing, spirituality, personal growth and development, and the way that our thoughts affect our life.

Over the past 3 years I have been counseling kids in the inner city and I found that I would naturally teach them meditation, visualization, and yoga to help them cope with their stress, anxiety, anger, and sadness. I asked some studios for donations of mats and after only 1 or 2 times on a yoga mat the kids would come to therapy and ask just to sit on the mat while they spoke. It was as if being on the mat itself was therapeutic in and of itself. The more yoga they asked for, the more I gave them and now. Seeing the incredible transformation that yoga has had on these kids has prompted me to be involved in bringing yoga to children in other settings and populations.

My years of practicing yoga and training with many well respected teachers, as well as my many years as a massage therapist allowed me the ability to take my passion and knowledge into the school setting. Witnessing the transformation of kids who are inspired and empowered through their practice of yoga is my greatest blessing. Seeing them find their inner strength, voice, and confidence inspires me on a daily basis.

Growing up in Wilmette myself, I feel so incredibly blessed to be back in my home community and be able to share my passion, experience, and knowledge with the families at Generations Yoga.

I look forward to meeting and working with you all.

May peace be with you.
