Think Chiropractic & Wellness Centre: experts at providing pain relief and life strategies for health and wellness! 

Michelle Compas, Meditation Instructor

 

I grew up surrounded by deep spiritual roots, teachings and practices that exuded a

mindful and contemplative lifestyle. My fast-faced corporate career kicked off the quest to find

the grounding and mindful disciplines that yoga and meditation offer. I completed my 200-

hour Hatha Yoga training in 2013 at Sheridan College and have completed an additional 300

hours of training from the Kripalu lineage.

​

These intensive studies focused Meditation, Pranayama, Kripalu Vinyasa, Nadis & Granthis. The principles of Sukha (comfort) and Sthira (effort) are the root influence in my teaching style and they are often reminders to students to connect to a mindful practice. I'm inspired by how small shifts make big changes and how slowing down offers a different perspective on almost everything. Some other studies I have completed include Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Thai Yoga Massage, Craniosacral Therapy and Chinese Medicine. I am also a certified Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra® instructor, Meditation Teacher and Usui Reiki Master. I look forward to being a part of your mindful journey!

​

I work full-time as an IT Project Manager for the Halton Regional Police and I live in

Burlington with my family, including two Australian Shepherds and two cats. Most evenings and weekends I can be found guiding yoga and meditation classes.

 

Something you’ll find on my bucket list is to volunteer at a sloth sanctuary in Costa Rica.
