Gail Cristelli, a certified yoga therapist, Reiki master, holistic health coach, spiritual life coach, and author, has been a devoted student and teacher of yoga for over 30 years. Her journey began through the physical practice and evolved into a deep exploration of yoga’s spiritual and philosophical roots. Drawing inspiration from many traditions, she integrates body, mind, and spirit into her teachings with compassion and authenticity.
Her first book, Courage to Grow, a personal memoir of her spiritual unfolding and life journey, was written with a strong emphasis on her study, practice, and teaching of yoga. Through challenging life lessons, she discovered that courage grows from within, allowing her the space to find her voice and cultivate self-esteem and self-worth.
Influenced by the ever-changing flow of life, writing spiritual essays and poetry became a pathway for healing and growth. With her deep love of nature, Gail enjoys hiking, swimming, kayaking, and immersing herself in forest bathing whenever possible. She believes all beings are sacred and equally deserving of respect and compassion, beginning with the Earth we walk upon.
YogaFlow Body, Mind, and Spirit: A Sacred Journey Through the Mystical Teachings of Yoga is her second book. This offering reflects her life’s work dedicated to teaching yoga, her personal studies, and her YogaFlow Body, Mind & Spirit Teacher Training Certifications. Adapted from her training manuals and class discussions, the book serves as a comprehensible guide that invites readers on an inner journey of Self-discovery.
Through her classes, writings, and service, Gail encourages her students to awaken to their inner wisdom and live with greater awareness, balance, and love. Her heartfelt approach reminds us that yoga is not about self-improvement, but self-acceptance —
leading toward Self-Realization and the path home to wholeness.
A quiet space to
return to yourself.
