Terry Gupta

Throughout the pandemic, and starting right in March 2020, Terry provided free seated yoga movements, breathing practices and meditative opportunities using a live virtual format. One group she outreached to was healthcare professionals. The other group was comprised of persons with vulnerable health statuses (e.g., cancer, paralysis, etc.). The aim was to help build resilience and combat social isolation. She mentored a group of female healthcare professionals in a weekly yoga session online from July to December 2020. She transitioned a nonprofit and small business to online care. She helped prepare other yoga/movement teachers to transition to online care. She made and decorated ‘thank you for your service’ care packages for healthcare professionals. The care packages had a mask, mini hand sanitizer, relaxing tea, mini hand lotion and healthy snack items. She supported me (a health professional) in countless ways for which I am blessed!
