Hi, I’m Dr. Letty Flohr!

All my best memories are rooted in nature—my panacea, my heaven on earth, where I feel most alive, grounded, and connected to something greater than myself.

This love for nature traces back to my childhood.

As a child, I spent my days on a hillside picking wildflowers, looking up at the open sky, and feeling free. At age nine, I left a sheltered life in Korea for New York City, where I became a latch-key kid, scanning for safety in a city that felt unpredictable. Later, when we moved to the Hawaiian Islands, safety and beauty returned—the scent of plumeria, the trade winds, the ocean, and the endless sky. That contrast taught me that natural light, nature, and beauty are medicine for the soul.

By fifteen, I was working. Ambition came easily, and so did drive. By my late twenties, I was a Commercial Paper Trader and VP on Wall Street, successful on the outside yet disconnected on the inside. I cycled through every kind of wellness support—trainers, yoga teachers, nutritionists, bodyworkers, acupuncturists—focusing on the physical, believing it would bring me peace. But beneath all of that striving, I longed for an unshakable inner peace I could return to, no matter what was happening in my life.

That longing led me to leave New York City for California in search of a more authentic life, one that felt aligned with my heart and spirit. There, I entered personal-growth seminars, earned a master’s in spiritual psychology, became a certified personal trainer, found my spiritual teacher, and married my best friend. For the first time, I felt at home within myself. My spiritual life, and later my family, became and continues to be at the heart of everything I do.

In 1995, I founded Sole to Soul®, offering guided hikes, strength training, yoga, Gyrotonic, restorative yoga, and life coaching to help clients connect with their bodies and inner wisdom. I wanted to create what I once needed most: a safe, loving environment where clients could honor their whole self—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. As a Relax & Renew® restorative yoga teacher, I learned how essential comfort and safety are to promote calm and relaxation, principles that naturally found their way into the Cloudwatching® Method.

A decade ago, while pursuing my Doctor of Spiritual Science degree, I found the Cloudwatching Method during one of the most stressful times in my life. I was constantly hurried and overwhelmed. Despite more than twenty-five years of supporting myself and others through mindfulness and self-care practices, the stress persisted. One day, in a moment of pure serendipity, I went to a nearby park. I laid down a picnic blanket, fully intending to take a nap, but encountered something even more precious: the very beginnings of the Cloudwatching Method. As soon as I lay down and looked up, stillness, awe, and wonder replaced stress, overwhelm, and exhaustion.

That experience became a practice I explored for the next decade as a spiritual scientist, testing, observing, and refining. When I invited others to try Cloudwatching, they too experienced a gentle shift within minutes—their bodies settled, their minds cleared, and their awareness expanded. Though I have a traditional meditation practice, I found that when we lie down safely and comfortably, with our eyes open to the sky, Cloudwatching leads naturally into a meditative state—an open-eye mindfulness where seeing becomes a path to calm, clarity, and presence.

Cloudwatching is a bridge from hurry to stillness, from screens to sky, from doing to being.

Lie down. Look up. I’ll meet you there.
