Irina Baysara

New York City, NY

Irina is a dedicated teacher of breathing techniques that you can take with you, whether it be on your way to work, taking a walk in the park, or relaxing at home. You can also utilize them when you are washing dishes, cooking, cleaning the apartment, reading books, working on the computer, waiting in a doctor's office, on a flight, or at the airport.

As someone who believes in the power of motivated healing, Irina recognizes that people's everyday lives are stressful, hectic and chock full of work and obligations. By demonstrating how to connect the body to the breath, Irina shows you how you can develop the healthy habit of deep breathing to positively balance your mind and body. Irina strives to help you make restorative breathing techniques a way of life and demonstrates how these exercises can help you become more proactive in your physical and mental well being.

Irina has started her journey of yoga and breathing practice with the very knowledgeable Tibetan teacher of Sivananda Yoga and Tibetan yoga from India who helped her heal her lungs. The allergies and sinuses which were a constant hindrance for over 35 years stopped bothering her. Breathing exercises helped her restore her natural sleep patterns, cure depression, lose weight, and heal her neurological back pain. Then she turned to her family and friends, helping them become happy and healthy by teaching them breathing exercises. It was then that she finally realized that teaching breathing was her calling. Irina immersed herself in studying the different techniques of breathing, and her practice became her lifestyle. After Irina completed her yoga training, she started on a yoga therapy journey with Prema Yoga Institute. With her love for Tibetan medicine, Irina studied Mindfulness and Loving Kindness Meditation, and Yoga Psychology training in Nalanda Institute. She attained BBM training and became a teacher of that program.

She teaches private patients how they can reduce stress, fatigue, stiffness, depression, and anxiety with the development of a routine of breathing practice. Irina was moved to see how a restorative regiment of breathing allowed her to help a friend suffering from alcoholism. Estranged from his family and depressed, he took solace in the temporary escape alcohol provided, only to have his health deteriorate. A regiment of fast and deep breathing over a period empowered him to become proactive in his healing. Now he listens to what his internal well being calculator is saying and uses breathing and meditation to maintain a healthier mental and physical balance. He reconnected with his kids and now enjoys spending time with his grandchildren in the park and museums.
