About Me
My name is Laura Haraka and I am a proud mother of two daughters. After teaching high school math, I became a stay at home mom for the last 18 years. In 2015, my life was turned upside down when I was suddenly stricken with a chronic pain condition. After three years of searching for a medical diagnosis with no avail, I discovered the world of mind-body medicine. Through my mind body work, I have found personal growth as well as physical and emotional healing.
Today, I live my life grateful for all the blessings I have and for the medical professionals that have helped me through a difficult time in my life. Mindfulness is now a part of my daily routine along with physical activity and a spiritual practice. My goal is to share my story with as many people as possible to help them find hope and joy throughout their healing journey.
I am a Chronic Pain Practitioner and Mind-Body Coach, Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, YogaBody Breath Coach and Breathwork Facilitator. I have also completed the Dr. Schubiner’s Freedom from Chronic Pain Practitioner Training Course. I have also undergone the Mindful schools courses: Mindful Fundamentals and Mindful Educator Essentials. I am also a certified educational administrator and mathematics teacher.
