Courtney Jarrell- Owner of Shine Light Health, Yoga Instructor, HPV Health Coach

Courtney Jarrell has 17 years of yoga teaching experience, after getting her 200 hour Hatha Yoga Certification in 2009. Since then she has taught a variety of yoga classes across the country. She enjoys teaching alignment-based classes and making them accessible to all. Over the years she has taught aerial yoga, children's yoga, yin, SUP and vinyasa style classes. She enjoys combining her love of the outdoors with her love of yoga and appreciates practicing yoga outside to help connect with nature. She is excited to offer the Solstice Yoga Hike and Forest Bathing at this year's festival.

In 2015 she received her Health Coach Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. She has found her niche, working with women diagnosed with HPV to help them boost their immune system and clear the virus naturally. She has recently released her online coaching program, Clearing HPV Naturally, in order to help more women find healing.

Courtney loves all things health and wellness, but mostly loves spending time with her community, family and friends.

She will be running the: Yoga & Forest Bathing Sunday Hikes – Courtney is coordinating Sunday's outdoor experiences honoring Summer Solstice and International Day of Yoga with three levels of an outdoor immersive experience blending physical exertion with mental calm. Outdoor Yoga – a short walk to a tranquil setting for a gentle yoga class with breathwork, meditation, and time for deep connection to our surroundings. Yoga & Forest Bathing Hike – a gentle forest bathing hike combined with yoga, breathwork, mindfulness and meditation. Hiking shoes, water and packed lunch recommended, no mat necessary. Yoga Hike – the most strenuous of the offerings, combining moderate level hiking, forest bathing, yoga, mindfulness and meditation. Space is very limited and separate registration is required for all who wish to participate.
