  • Welcome to "Chakra Yoga and Wellness," your gateway to a harmonious and balanced life. I'm Rebecca Medcalf, your guide on this transformative journey. As a certified yoga instructor, Reiki practitioner, and expert in somatic regulation strategies, I've dedicated my life to exploring the profound connections between our physical and energetic selves.

    My own wellness journey, which began in 2014, has illuminated the incredible potential for positive change that lies within our grasp when we prioritize balance and education. I firmly believe that by understanding our bodily systems, we empower ourselves to take charge of our health and well-being.

    ​

    Over the past decade, I've witnessed firsthand the remarkable impact of yoga, energy work, and essential oils on my life. By delving into the intricacies of the energy system, I've discovered how imbalances can significantly affect our overall health.

  • Never Forgotten is a volunteer community support group, run by survivors of suicide loss for survivors of suicide loss.  Being a "survivor" means that we have been impacted by the death of someone special to us by suicide and that we are experiencing a unique and profound form of grief.  We are dedicated to providing a welcoming atmosphere in which survivors can listen, learn and heal from each other.  We believe that it is through the sharing of our stories that we find healing with those of us who truly understand, and that we can learn to integrate and reconcile our grief due to suicide loss into our minds, hearts and lives.
