ABOUT PATH TO CALM
The practices offered at Path to Calm blend mindfulness, yoga, and moment-to-moment awareness to shape both personal and collective experiences.
Path to Calm training in meditation, yoga, breathing & relaxation techniques, and lifestyle coaching designed to foster wellness for individuals, groups, and organizations seeking greater balance.
Led by Justine Andronici, a seasoned yoga an meditation teacher with more than 22 years of practice experience, Path to Calm is dedicated to creating a nurturing and inclusive space for healing and transformation.
Path to Calm also regularly collaborates with highly skilled wellness practitioners to bring diverse perspectives and a range of modern and traditional wellness practices to our community.
Our Philosophy and Lineage
At Path to Calm, we believe that the ability to cultivate calm is the foundation for transformative change—on personal, social, and global levels.
The wellness practices we offer are rooted in the ancient Asian traditions of yoga breathing movement and meditation and Buddhist meditation techniques. These traditions and lineages are not ours by birth. However, we do strive to honor them with deep respect and continued study.
Justine’s Background
Justine is a Mindfulness Meditation Instructor certified through the University of California, Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center® and holds multiple certifications in TriYoga®, including yogaflow® (movement), Prana Vidya (the science of breath, energy control, and meditation), pranayama (conscious rhythmic breathing), and dhyana (meditation).
Justine’s personal practice journey began well over 20 years ago. Her commitment to deep study and practice of yoga and meditation and its transformative effects in her life led her to the teaching path. She obtained her first teaching certification, of many to follow, in 2013.
