AlcheMē Natural Health Institute
Elevating the Field of
Yoga Therapy.
Training · Research · Professional Development · Irvine, CA
For nearly two decades, Be The Change Yoga and AlcheMē Yoga Therapy have been building yoga therapy from the inside out — inside hospitals, health systems, and community organizations across Southern California.
Out of that work, we founded ANHI — the AlcheMē Natural Health Institute — a nonprofit dedicated to advancing yoga therapy as a legitimate, scalable clinical profession. The AlcheMē Professional Network is the community we are building around that mission.
This is not a newsletter. It's a professional community being built around the future of yoga therapy.
The field of yoga therapy is at an inflection point. We're building the infrastructure to take it further.

Who We Are
Built from the inside out.
For nearly two decades, Be The Change Yoga and AlcheMē Yoga Therapy have been building yoga therapy from the inside out — inside hospitals, health systems, and community organizations across Southern California.
Out of that work, we founded ANHI — the AlcheMē Natural Health Institute — a nonprofit dedicated to advancing yoga therapy as a legitimate, scalable clinical profession.
The AlcheMē Professional Network is the community we are building around that mission. It exists for practicing C-YTs, clinicians, and researchers who care deeply about where this field is headed.
Health happens in community. We built a place to prove it.
