I am honored by what my beautiful students and clients have said...
Joanna is a teacher, a healer, and—I suspect— a sorceress. I have been struggling for many months to put into words how she has helped me feel more at home in my own body, and realize now that there is no single healing modality she practices that comprises her magic. I have attended her beautiful yoga classes and have seen her for Pain Neutralization and energy work, and she is brilliant at both. Joanna's true gifts, though, lie in her willingness to be profoundly present and her ability to teach in such a way as to heal the mind's understanding of and relationship with the body. She has given me the blessing of relating to my body differently, and she holds a sacred space to let that relationship unfold. Along with her mastery of the body and her impressive knowledge of its mechanical workings, Joanna gives the gift of witnessing pain for what it is: an experience, not an absolute truth. It is in her witnessing that I have experienced deep healing, and I am wholly grateful.

"Joanna is a Miracle Worker! Twice she has gotten me out of the pain I was in for months, in 2-minutes! Then I followed the simple exercises she recommended and the pain has NOT come back for 9 months!"
~Adrienne, Activities Assistant, Voyager Resort
"Joanna, you have helped me so much. Our work together has made me remember what my body felt like before chronic pain."
~Kathylynn Saboda, University of Arizona Cancer Center
"Joanna Carichner is a compassionate and wise healer. Her vibrational healing is particularly powerful for resolving old, outdated patterns in the body, mind and spirit. After a session with her, I always feel nourished and rejuvenated. Thanks, Joanna. You are amazing!"
~Sarah Cotten, Body Wisdom Health
"Taking yoga class with Earth Mother Joanna is a joyful and loving experience. She holds a sacred space in which magic happens to my body, heart and soul. In her presence, with her gentle, kind heart, I feel safe to release all of me and be free. Thank you, Joanna."
~Holly Sack, Nia Black Belt
"I cannot thank you enough for the healing treatment you blessed me with. I walked out of your working space a different person. You transformed my energy from dark, heavy and negative to light and positive. I now see with different eyes."
~Anna Maldonado, Scheduler for Rep. Raul Grijalva
Why I Am So Damn Thankful That Joanna is Not a Tall, Skinny, Blonde Supermodel
Because her juicy, wild energy is fire and round!
Because her funky power is the strength of Earth-in all of its curvy wavy lush caRICHness!
Because she is light AND shadow.
Because she leads with her true essence, abundant and true.
Because she dances exuberant love of self,
as spiritual practice,
into the mirror of every woman
who has ever doubted.
I love Joanna for my mother,
of similar shape,
who never danced.
I love Joanna for all the women,
now, who always will.
