A Note From Me to you

A quarter of century ago was my summer of firsts: my first yoga class in Hong Kong; my first women's retreat in Bali; my first bodywork training in shiatsu.

I was walked path towards wellness out of curiosity.

That fall, I began in-depth study of meditation, yoga, Aikido and art as presence through process at Naropa University.

One fateful day on the Aikido mat, I received a blow to my head that changed my life. The path to wellness I had been exploring suddenly became mandatory with the diagnosis of an MTBI.

The years following that moment have taught me that wellness is a balancing act, not a destination we "finally arrive at."

If we view health as a fluid experience, we allow ourselves the room to heal, grow and transform.

We can accept the reality of what is.

If we look deeply enough, we may possibly embrace the beauty of it.

It's a choice to put our feet on the path to wellness.

For me, that choice was influenced by subsequent health issues and injuries. They taught me to stay steady on the path. To seek wellness for my own strength and healing.

While challenging, like a backcountry hike without defined trails, the gifts of this path are many and eventually seem outweigh the obstacles.

I find among them are acceptance, strength, curiosity, patience, willingness and growth. I discovered a deep well of resources and tools along the way. I would be honored to share with you.

As a guide, I will help you discover where you want to go, develop the path to walk towards it and assist you in navigating obstacles you encounter on the way. I offer support towards your health and empowerment.

I do my best to reflect compassionately and clearly who you are and who you want to become as you move towards wellness.

May I stay committed to my own path so that I may continue to learn, resource and become.
