Libby Nicholaou

Libby Nicholaou is a yoga practitioner and founder of the Show Up with Love restorative yoga teacher training in Brooklyn, New York. She is also the author of the Show Up with Love guided journal, which holds the intention to draw us back to our source of love when faced with challenges in relationships and life. Libby initially connected with yoga as a movement modality and drew closer to the subtle aspects of the practice when she faced health challenges. Her restorative yoga, nidra, and meditation practice enabled her to access empowerment and self compassion in order to lovingly care for her body amidst the discomfort and confusion. Yoga’s teachings in the sutras and upanishads gave her a road map for courageously going inward and understanding how she identified with the different layers and aspects of her being. After nearly a decade, her health has steadily improved and the practices of visualization, movement, breath, reflection, and rest, continue to enrich her life in unexpected ways.

“You know that thing when you think you soul might be finally crushed for good and the nameless, wordless, friendless dread of the city has sucked you dry? Well, this place has the cure. You can help with the grounds and garden, you can yoga and meditate, you can get the best massage in 48 states, you can eat the most delicious vegetarian cuisine, and my favorite, walk the trails and paths through bubbling brooks and over rushing waterfalls and regain your spirit and feel the beat of your heart in time to nature.”
