Introduction: I work through a few modalities to help my clients heal from the inside out: individualized private and group yoga sessions, holistic health coaching, emotional resiliency training, meditation and mindfulness training and therapeutic grade essential oil education.
Through personalized private and group yoga:
-Calm your busy mind, improve memory and concentration, improve your mood and outlook on life, increase productivity and efficiency in all areas of your life.
-Integrate the ups and downs of life in a lasting, sustainable way.
-Improve posture, lower blood pressure, normalize weight, improve sleep, increase immunity, address back and other pain, increase range of motion in joints, regulate digestion and cholesterol.
-Increase flexibility, balance and strength simultaneously.
-Advance your practice no matter where you are in your yoga journey.
-Learning in the safety of a private session allows beginners to have all your questions answered and all your needs met without the intimidation or overwhelm of a public class.
-Perfect for intermediate and advanced students wishing to take their practice to the next level. You will progress faster than you would in a larger group class.
-Learn meditation and pranayama techniques.
-Develop a home practice.
-Through regular, consistent study with me, you will feel more at home in your body, relaxed in your mind and gain a deeper connection with your intuition. You will leave every session feeling centered, energized and rejuvenated.
Through emotional resiliency training:
-Discover the strength that has always been inside of you, but you just forgot you had: feel happier, healthier, and in love with your body and life.
-Ignite your innate courage to melt away fear and worry.
-Find the hope within that heals the grief and sadness.
-Build deep confidence in yourself that allows you to be sure of every step you take in life.
-Examine the blocks you may have that prevent healing and move through them to thrive.
-Reframe your perspective, allowing you to remember all the gifts you've been given, even if they seem impossible to find, while honoring all the struggles you've experienced.
-Create a new set of tools in your toolbox that will allow you to handle life's difficult situations more fluidly and comfortably. We practice and integrate these tools so they stay with you for life.
Through meditation and mindfulness training:
-Learn to calm and steady your mind
-Multiply your ability to focus and concentrate by 10.
-Improve your effectiveness at work and in all areas of your life.
-Feel more grounded in your sense of yourself.
-Reduce anxiety, fear, loneliness and depression.
-Enhance self esteem and self- acceptance.
-Boost immunity
-Improve decision making and reduce impulsivity- you become the master of your life!
I love teaching mindfulness and meditation to practitioners of all ages- from children as young as five to 105 - meditation is profoundly transformative for all!
Through holistic health coaching:
-Get rid of brain fog and lethargy and have more energy than you did as a kid (yes- it is totally possible and I have helped many of my clients achieve this!).
-Balance your weight and body image by creating a deep connection with your bodys ability to heal itself.
- Go from saying I know what to do, I just dont do it to easily integrating lasting health habits in your daily life. I help you take baby steps toward sustainable lifestyle change.
-Lose weight without dieting or deprivation.
-Banish cravings for good!
-Love who you see in the mirror.
Through medicinal, therapeutic-grade essential oil education:
-Support the body naturally in literally thousands of ways: migraines, asthma, colds, flu, lethargy, sleep issues, PMS, wrinkles, bug bites, digestive distress, sore throats and so much more- all can be supported through the use of a specific kind of essential oil and I help you find the oils right for you.
-Upgrade your medicine cabinet, cosmetics drawer, cleaning supplies and more with non-toxic, highly potent essential oils that are safer, cheaper and more effective than most over the counter and prescription drugs.
-Feel empowered to take your health and wellness into your own hands.
