Jennifer Pastiloff

Jennifer Pastiloff, Beauty Hunter, is a writer and yoga teacher living with her husband in Los Angeles and soon to be son, when she’s not on an airplane. She travels the world with her Manifestation Retreats/Workshops On Being Human- a hybrid of yoga, writing, sharing out loud, and occasionally a dance party, as well as a workshop for young women called "Girl Power: You Are Enough." It's an experience that has been described as NOT "woo-woo,", heart-mending and sometimes messy- just like life. You do not have to be a good yogi, or writer. Just a human being with a body. Jen has been featured on Good Morning America, New York Magazine, CBS News and more for her unique style of teaching. She studied poetry and writing at NYU and Bucknell University and is currently finishing her first book and is represented by Adriann Ranta at Foundry Media. She tweets/instagrams at @jenpastiloff.

People Magazine says: Jennifer is changing women's lives through her empowerment workshops. Cheryl Strayed says: Jennifer Pastiloff is a conduit of awakenings. Lidia Yuknavitch says: Dear Jen, From you I have learned to alchemize fear with love, to redistribute love through compassion, to enter a room with others. Jen leads her signature Manifestation Workshop: On Being Human all over the world & online. Her memoir will be published by Dutton Books in 2019. Preorders available now at JenniferPastiloff.com Her workshops are a unique blend of writing and some yoga. She has developed a massive following based on her writing & workshops. A London workshop attendee says, "A space to show up and be human. A fusion of yoga and singing and writing and sharing, with laughter and tears mixed in! To be held and encouraged so beautifully by Jen, who won't flinch....but stay connected to us all through the journey. She creates a strong container, sits on the edges of our yoga mats listening to the stories that weave us together as human beings. She gives us the gift of attention, space and time. It's a space for connecting, for intimacy...you leave in a different place from where you arrive...It's a chance to show up, to own our fears and our dreams, our deep yearnings and the things we'd love to manifest in our lives. A chance to be wholeheartedly present and come back home a little more to ourselves." Jen also leads retreats with Emily Rapp & Lidia Yuknavitch. She is also the guest speaker at Canyon Ranch three times a year. All info is at the top under Retreats/Workshops.

She has had her work appear online at The Nervous Breakdown, Literary Mothers, Medium: Human Parts as well as other journals. She has been featured in print at The Healing Muse and is a contributor to Shades of Blue, an anthology on depression and suicide from Seal Press.

1 day ago by jenpastiloff An oldie but goodie.... Q: Which one is the “real” me? A: BOTH. Minutes apart. Come on, you know you’ve turned on your phone & it’s accidentally on the camera & it’s facing up your nose. It’s called #realmotherfuckinglife & I try to live this way. Meaning: I tell the truth about who i am. Does that mean I share every detail here? Nope. It means I tell the truth to myself. I take Prozac & I lead “inspirational” workshops. I drink wine and coffee & I eat an entire bag of peanut butter cups & I exercise a lot.

5 hours ago by jenpastiloff My book is NOT just for the ladies!! #repost @markotheinspired ........: Recently I finished @jenpastiloff ’s badass, heart-opening, gritty, real book, On Being Human. AND LET ME TELL YOU. This book was a GD epiphany. It gave me permission to let myself be “got.” As in the phrase, “I got you.” In my life, I’ve always been the person to figure it out. The one who has it handled + all buttoned up. For others. Not for me. Then I met this guy + it’s like the universe said, “Open up, bitch! You deserve love. You are worthy of support.” And
