Rebecca Moller - Co-Founder, Program Director & Lead Instructor

Rebecca Moller lives in Spanish Fork, UT with her husband Nathan and their 5 children. After experiencing a shattering loss in 2014, Becky spent the next decade as a devoted student of spiritual healing.

She spent 6 years in the 12-step world of trauma and addiction recovery, where she learned the art of surrender and the gifts of community.  Eventually becoming the Executive Director of SA Lifeline Foundation, a worldwide 12-step recovery community, she planned and spoke at multiple Conferences and Retreats, wrote extensively on the mechanics of trauma and addiction recovery and developed online curriculum and core instructive materials. Her experience here taught her how to create healthy and effective group settings that foster the safety and accountability necessary to heal from traumas and addictions.

This work naturally expanded into the world of mindfulness as Becky was a career fitness and yoga instructor with over 17 years experience teaching at the University level (BYU & UVU).  She witnessed how her fitness classes helped her to process trauma through her body, and she realized that this was a powerful missing link for many people in psychological distress.

Through inspired mentors, she came to know for herself the profound connection between mind, body, and spirit, and how to utilize this connection to awaken to the limiting beliefs and ego identities that keep us trapped. With these understandings, she deepened her training in yoga, mindfulness, and meditation and found them to be another incredible tool that accelerated her growth and healing.

Rebecca is a certified Mindfulness and Meditation Teacher through Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield in association with the UC Berkeley Greater Good Science Center and Awareness Institute. This 2-year training (2021-23) greatly deepened her framework and allow her to teach from a powerful combination of personal experience, ancient tradition, and modern neuroscience.

She is a graduate of Eckhart Tolle’s Teachers of Presence Program (2023) and Jack Kornfield’s Interactive Guided Meditation Master Class (2024). She has been teaching meditation and mindfulness in group settings since 2018 and mentoring individuals since 2023.

Rebecca is the author and creator of The Lifehouse Body & Soul mindfulness courses and lead instructor of our Embodied Practice program. Her personal memoir Undone, Unafraid: Evolving through Betrayal, Trauma, Femininity & Faith is scheduled to release on October 10, 2024.

Rebecca feels overwhelmed with gratitude at how such ugly beginnings have become so beautiful.  Like the poet, Rumi, she knows that “The wound is where the light enters” and she is no longer afraid of the dark–in herself or in others.

She feels privileged and uniquely called to provide a soft space for those who feel the desire to truly, deeply, heal and awaken to a larger journey of self-discovery and wholeness.  She knows that “Everything you are looking for is already here, within you, exactly as you are.”

Meet the Team

Nesha Woodhouse - Co-Founder

Nesha started Lifehouse Performing Arts Academy in her basement in 1999. Because of her own personal struggles with feeling like her worth was determined by her accomplishments, Nesha has sought to create an environment at Lifehouse that strives to instill values of personal integrity and strength in its students rather than competition, seeking for external validation and ego.  The studio, under her leadership, has grown to be one of the largest in Utah.

Nesha’s first experience with body trauma happened at age 4.  Several traumatic experiences throughout her childhood and early adolescence contributed to her developing Anorexia in an effort to feel in control of her worthiness for love and acceptance by controlling her body size.  Although this has been a difficult challenge, journeying with her body and healing her trauma has also been her greatest teacher.  It is in grappling with this challenge that Nesha has discovered truth, wisdom and the gift in the human experience.

In seeking for her own healing, Nesha sought out many resources.  She has attended workshops, done therapy, participated in various fitness programs, read countless books and worked with many wonderful mentors.  She has learned the power of aligning herself with truth and the importance of healing trauma, which is universal to the human condition.

In seeking for her own healing, Nesha struggled to find answers for her body trauma.  She found that most programs tied feeling good about yourself and health strictly to weight, size and following a strict routine of diet and exercise.  She knew from her own experience that looking to an outcome of being a certain size or of behaving “perfectly” were not the answer.  She also recognized that most people, especially women, have significant shame and trauma around their body.  A vision for a program that would teach that true power comes in being aligned with truth, the need for a higher power, and the integration of the mind, body, heart and soul began to form.

Nesha’s vision is to create a space that she was always searching for, but could never find.  A space for honoring the body as a glorious instrument to learn, experience and love.

Shirley Hale - Online Group Facilitator

My name is Shirley Hale and I love mindfulness! And I am honored to help move this work along to all those who can benefit from it, so pretty much everybody. I found Lifehouse at a time when I felt very lost and confused. I had lost a baby, had a rainbow baby, gone to therapy, but felt so stuck. The tools and community, practice workouts, yoga and meditation, all together helped me find connection to myself, my higher power, and true joy.

I did not expect for this program to be life changing, but it has affected every aspect of my life for the better. Mindfulness helps me to process everything in a way that brings me to peace and clarity. I’m so excited to help others see their potential and find that clarity and peace as well. It has nothing to do with what’s going on around us and everything to do with how we interpret and allow those things to affect us. This doesn’t come easy! But having the tools, community, and support make it easier to practice again and again. I’m excited to practice with you and be a fellow on this journey!

Janet Jensen - Online Group Facilitator

Janet has been with Lifehouse Body & School since the beginning, always as a student and now as a teacher. The movement and mindfulness tools she learned through Lifehouse helped her navigate through a high conflict divorce and betrayal trauma in her personal and professional life. Her mindfulness teaching is informed by her personal journey and additional education around spirituality, faith deconstruction and grief as a certified intuitive cranial sacral therapist and as a certified chaplain.

Natalie Maughan - Youth Group Facilitator

Natalie is a wife to a loving hubby, a mother of two, foster mom of one, and an aunt to thirty six nieces and nephews. Natalie enjoys playing volleyball, reading, quilting, camping, and 4 -wheeling. She loves spending time with her family. She actively participates in her church and strives to be a disciple of Christ.
Natalie grew up feeling loved and encouraged by many. Natalie also felt the pressure of living up to other’s expectations, feeling her worth came from her accomplishments, and striving for perfection. Becoming aware of these misguided beliefs has helped her overcome feelings of shame, loneliness, and not being enough. She has a greater capacity to handle difficult feelings and situations. She is learning to let go of false beliefs and let God teach her who she is. There is more communication, understanding, love and kindness in all of her relationships. Mindfulness has empowered her to use her agency and to find peace and wholeness.
Natalie joined Lifehouse Body and Soul in the beginning in 2021. She has participated in other mindfulness and emotional resilience courses, and studied many books. She has been a formal teacher of youth for over eight years and worked with youth groups for many years prior to this. She enjoys their energy and feels their need to be accepted and loved. Natalie continues to practice daily with these life changing tools learned at Lifehouse. She is excited for others to experience mindfulness and healing for themselves. Natalie invites you to Come As You Are.

Lisa Blair - Youth Group Facilitator

I’m Lisa Blair and I’m so happy to be a part of Lifehouse Body & Soul! I’ve been involved with the program here for about two years. I was first attracted to Lifehouse by a 6-week Couples Course that I hoped would give my husband and I a little boost on healthy communication. By the end of the 6 weeks I realized that I needed to do some deeper personal work, shifting my mindset and how I was operating. I wanted to see changes in my relationship and in myself, so I signed up for the year long course and jumped in with both feet!

The mindfulness principles and tools that I’ve learned and continue to incorporate into my life have helped me make shifts, both large and small, that permeate almost every interaction I have with those around me. They have brought me more joy and purpose and more peace in the midst of the inevitable craziness that life brings.

I am so excited to be a facilitator for Lifehouse Body & Soul and to be able to share and discuss these mindfulness principles that have served me so well.

Elyse Alexander - Young Adult Group Facilitator

Elyse is 22 years old. She’s a musician and artist in Salem, UT. Elyse struggled with debilitating OCD, anxiety, and depression from a very young age. After over a decade of trying many different things and finding little relief, she found Lifehouse Body and Soul as a last resort and felt things turn around almost instantly. She started to see the benefits of looking inward to heal and using the tools that Lifehouse provides to move through life peacefully and confidently. Since beginning her spiritual journey, Elyse has seen herself growing and accomplishing things she never thought she would be able to accomplish. She’s learned the value of not identifying with or denying emotions, and instead allowing them to move through her.

Elyse is a graduate of Lifehouse Body and Soul’s Embodied Mindfulness Teacher Training program and has been attending mindfulness courses for a year now. She is so excited to further her spiritual journey and help others find the joy she’s discovered herself.

Autumn Carver - Floating Substitute Teacher

Autumn’s journey is nothing short of miraculous. Just four days after a tough divorce, she survived a serious car accident that left her with multiple injuries, including a broken neck. Despite doctors predicting a lengthy 2 year rehabilitation, she was able to leave the hospital in just 23 days.

Lifehouse’s holistic support played a huge role in her transformation, helping her heal both physically and emotionally. Her journey from brokenness to wholeness reignited her passion and excitement for life. Through it all, her faith in Jesus Christ provided her with strength, hope, and guidance.

Autumn is dedicated to helping others find their own paths to healing. She loves gourmet healthy cooking, traveling, hiking, and gardening, but most of all, she cherishes raising her five children. Her love for family and community drives her to share the message of hope and healing with everyone she meets.
