ABOUT FERN


Welcome to Fern Yoga & Wellness — a nurturing online space for women who are exploring what it means to age with curiosity, resilience, and joy. Through thoughtful practices that support strength, mobility, and balance, alongside restorative yoga, mindful movement, meditation, and heart-centered guidance, we meet the unfolding of life with compassion and curiosity.

I’m Fern Carbonell, a yoga and meditation teacher and wellness advocate. What began as a deeply personal journey — navigating my own body’s changes and transitions — inspired me to create a supportive sanctuary where women can feel seen, supported, and empowered.

Over the years I’ve discovered that the process of aging isn’t a hurdle to get through; it’s a rich, layered journey that invites us to deepen our relationship with ourselves: body, mind, and spirit. I believe that thriving at any age isn’t just about physical vitality, it’s about welcoming change with intention, cultivating self-compassion, and gathering around community for support and connection.

Here at Fern Yoga & Wellness, we weave together mindful yoga practices, meditation, reflection, and wellness tools that support you as you evolve. I’m here to walk with you, encouraging ease, resilience, and joy every step of the way.

Halleluiah

by Mary Oliver

Everyone should be born into this world happy

and loving everything.

But in truth it rarely works that way.

For myself, I have spent my life clamoring toward it.

Halleluiah, anyway I’m not where I started!

And have you too been trudging like that, sometimes

almost forgetting how wondrous the world is

and how miraculously kind some people can be?

And have you too decided that probably nothing important

is ever easy?

Not, say, for the first sixty years.

Halleluiah, I’m sixty now, and even a little more,

and some days I feel I have wings.
