The Face Yoga Institute™ 

We begin with truth, not technique. You'll hear Leah's story, understand the philosophy behind this work, and establish exactly what you are — and are not — stepping into as a practitioner. Inside this module: Why this work exists and where it came from The philosophy of union, balance, and radiance from within Scope of practice — the language that protects you and your clients What real radiance actually is and why it can't be manufactured from the outside

Before a single technique, you need to understand why the techniques work. This module covers the published research behind everything in this program — and changes the way you will see every face, including your own. Inside this module: The nervous system — what happens when one gear gets stuck How unprocessed stress becomes physically encoded in the face The skin as a living, intelligent system — not just a surface Collagen, elastin, lymphatics, fascia, and why they all connect The science of neuroplasticity — why consistent practice actually rewires the brain

Nine research-backed tools for shifting the nervous system — with the science behind each one so you can use them with confidence and explain them clearly. This is not a script. It is a roadmap. Inside this module: How to read three distinct nervous system states and choose the right tool for each Breathwork, tapping, bilateral movement, grounding, humming, and more The Stanford-researched Physiological Sigh — the fastest evidence-based reset available Lion's Breath — the only traditional yoga practice built specifically for the face

This is where the practice lives. Every technique is grounded in peer-reviewed research, paired with breath and intention, and designed to work with the muscle science — not against it. Individual results vary. Inside this module: The forehead, brows, eyes, jaw, cheeks, lips, and neck — each muscle group, its story, and its technique Signature Louisiana moves including the Crawfish Claw and the Beignet Puff How to design a short daily sequence that actually gets done The warm-up that makes everything else work better

Face yoga does not exist in isolation. This module teaches how the internal work you do changes the environment that every modality works within — and why that matters for results. Individual results vary. Inside this module: Microcurrent, microchanneling, gua sha, rollers, and LED — what the research actually says What gua sha does not have evidence for — and why that matters How to sequence nervous system work before and after any modality Sensory elements, aromatherapy, and daily self-care routines This module is educational. It does not authorize hands-on work on others.

Every other module in this program is built on peer-reviewed research. This one is different — and intentionally so. Take what resonates. Leave what does not. Inside this module: The chakra system and its direct connection to the face Reiki and the quality of intentional touch Clearing practices, aromatherapy, and space preparation David Hawkins' Map of Consciousness — held honestly as a philosophical framework Where traditional wisdom and modern neuroscience quietly agree Not required for your credential. Not assessed.

This is the module that turns a student into a practitioner. Everything you have learned — now structured into a real, sustainable, ethical practice you can stand behind. Inside this module: How to structure private, group, and virtual sessions The science of language — why what you say is part of the practice What your credential authorizes and what it does not Business basics — waivers, pricing, marketing, and building a conscious community

The ancient philosophical lineage beneath every breath cue and technique in this program. Not required — offered for the student who wants to understand not just what they are doing, but where it came from.

For the student whose faith is part of their wellness practice. Scripture and science, held alongside each other with the same integrity applied throughout this program.
