My name is Devon, and I’m the founder of Compulsive to Calm Yoga Therapy. More importantly, I’m someone who has been personally impacted by anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. For a long time, I felt helpless—like I would never be able to quiet my overactive mind or live a life not ruled by rituals and constant worry.
When I discovered yoga, it became a refuge. Through yoga, I learned techniques that helped release the physical tension I was holding and gently quiet my mind. With practices such as meditation, journaling, mindful movement, and studying yogic philosophy, I began to face my anxiety and make meaningful, lasting changes in my life.
I once couldn’t imagine a life not dominated by anxiety. Now that I know such a life is possible, I feel deeply called to help empower others to find the same freedom, peace, and sense of self.
