Wellness
Creating and living a more joyful and balanced life.
My work is grounded in mindfulness practices, taking a mind, body, spirit approach, using practical and uncomplicated tools to achieve the balance you seek. My balanced wellness practice includes workshops and retreats for adults and youth.
