Sophie Malahieude
Ayurveda and Yoga Consultant - Emotional Balance Life Coach - Author
Sophie’s work grew naturally from a life lived across France, Germany, and the United States, and the inner transformations shaped by each transition. She discovered yoga in 1997 and later Ayurveda, practices that helped her understand how emotions live in the body and how awareness leads us back to ourselves.
After navigating grief, identity shifts, cultural change, and years of carrying more than she admitted, Sophie realized that emotional overwhelm isn’t a flaw — it’s a message. Today, she blends yoga, Ayurveda, mindfulness, and self-inquiry to help people understand their emotions, release stored tension, and return to inner steadiness with clarity and compassion.
She brings grounded wisdom, compassionate storytelling, and practical tools to every interview.
Her upcoming self-help book, Beyond Emotions: Stop Letting Emotions Control You and Start Living With Love (2026), draws from more than 20 years of practice and study in yoga, Ayurveda, breathwork, and emotional balance. Sophie explores how the body, the breath, and emotional awareness can free us from old patterns and reconnect us to our authentic selves. Blending personal stories with practical tools, she reveals where unprocessed emotions live in the body, how self-inquiry supports change, and why finding the root of our pain is essential for healing. The book invites readers to move through pain with compassion and rediscover courage, clarity, and love.
