Hi and welcome to Balance Practice — thanks for being here!
I set up this space to share writings, prompts, and gestures to inspire and support balance in the moments when you need it most. My weekly offerings explore balance and unpick the notion that balance is perfection, a fixed point or end goal, an ideal to strive for… (spoiler: it’s not). Balance is an accessible practice for all of us, an ever-evolving adjustment toward our own center. It only asks that we slow down, breathe deeply, and pay attention.
As a yoga coach and writer, I’ve been able to support all kinds of people as they create their own practice. Over 20 years of working with clients to create balance, I can attest that you’ll get a lot more out of morning check-ins, relaxing as you work, or putting your legs up the wall than going to one random yoga class a week.
If your practice doesn’t fit in your real life, it won’t work. This is less about self-improvement and more about meeting yourself where you are — day to day and moment to moment. I’m here with you in this practice and offer practical integration for your mind, your body, and the season you’re in.

I’m Erin — I’ve been a writer and yoga coach for more than two decades. I write about balance, wellbeing, yoga, creativity, motherhood, and rest, and I offer practical tools that ease imbalance and optimize, well, everything.
I’ve written two yoga books — Hit Reset and Work IN — that are really about balance and I founded Athletes for Yoga, the only athlete-led, on-demand video platform + app. For the last two decades I’ve coached high performance athletes — from Olympians to IRONMAN champions — as well as everyday runners, pre- and post-natal women, office workers, and everyone in between to create their practice and use yoga for real.
