Shelley Landis, LCSW, is the owner of Rooted in Love, LLC., and is a certified EMDR trauma therapist and consultant; certified Hatha, Yin Yoga and trauma-informed Yoga Nidra teacher, and Reiki Practitioner. Shelley is trauma-informed in her approach and infuses polyvagal elements into everything she does.
Shelley’s unique experiences as a therapist and yoga teacher include teaching “Mindful Movement for Wellness” for a local immigrant and refugee agency and “Yoga Nidra with an infusion of EMDR tapping and polyvagal exercises” at both Nourishing Heart Studio in Bloomington and Kompose studio in Indy. She also teaches Yin, meditation and trauma-informed yoga and somatics classes at Kompose and soon at Noble Hot Yoga in Carmel!
Shelley’s hobbies vary and include practicing yoga–with a new love specifically for yin–as well as mindful self-compassion meditation. She especially loves being in nature–earthing, walking or biking daily. She enjoys traveling to exotic places, such as Costa Rica, Hawaii and Belize. Fun tip–Shelley is planning a yoga retreat soon in Belize–stay tuned!! She’s a culture junkie, working with Exodus refugees and immigrants presently and has lived both in a Mexican border town and on the Navajo (Dine’) reservation…and is presently sharpening her Spanish skills with hopes of a trip to Spain in the near future.
Shelley is mom to one college-age daughter and two affectionately feisty felines. Fun fact: you can also see Shelley at the Broad Ripple farmer’s market working occasional weekends!
