As far back as I can remember, my mother encouraged me to use my mind, breathing, and energy intention to heal stomach aches, headaches, and other challenges. I practiced yoga with her at the age of 5 and fell in love with it. As I grew up, I used yoga, visualization, and meditation to enhance my sports performances, to excel in academics, and to manage my anxiety. My college journey is where I decided I really wanted to help people and I obtained a Bachelor of Science Degree with dual major in Psychology and Kinesiology from Northern Arizona University in 1992 with intent to do research or counsel.

Life had other plans for me, so I found myself on a life changing journey for many years that has made me the person I am today. It included a psychological break while I was married to a toxic person, working a full-time stressful job, and my daughter was only 2 years old. I connected again with my yoga, meditation, and Qigong to manage my depression, open my eyes, and start rediscovering who I was. Seven years later I left my marriage and ended that 17 year relationship, continued working hard to get my daughter through college, integrated my practices in a corporate environment, and worked on my passion of alternative therapies and helping people.

I look back and am amazed at the experiences, although not easy, and I smile at my resilience and growth. I left my corporate job with a fortune 100 company after a tenure of 19 1/2 years to now be self-employed and pursue my passion as a career as well as becoming an author. I keep evolving, learning, and growing as I let go and let the flow of all that is take me on a beautiful journey.
