YOU ARE HERE: Episode #8 From Hopeless, Helpless and Suicidal to Healing & Transformation with Jacqueline Burbage

About this episode

Jacqueline Burbage discusses her journey from hopelessness to healing through yoga and somatic practices.

Jacqueline Burbage is a certified yoga therapist and embodiment guide using somatic practices with over 20 years of experience helping people come home to their bodies, especially in times of transition, stress, or healing. Her work blends ancient yogic principles with modern nervous system science to support greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and embodied resilience. Jacqueline leads retreats, group programs, and community events that invite people into sacred, comfortable spaces where they can feel deeply, move freely, and heal in connection with others. With a deep respect for the body’s wisdom and a commitment to making the system of yoga and somatic practices accessible and real, she supports others in reclaiming their strength, confidence, and joy—especially women navigating the complexities of midlife, hormonal shifts, and the deep desire to live authentically. Whether she’s guiding group yoga classes or private sessions, facilitating dance journeys, or sharing nervous system education with humor and humility, Jacqueline brings a grounded, heart-forward presence to everything she does. Her work reminds us that healing isn’t linear—and that we don’t have to do it…
