If you’ve landed here, then you are likely curious whether energy medicine, yoga, meditation, or all these practices can help you find the balanced and peaceful life you crave.
In many ways, my story is common: I’m a middle-aged woman who spent most of my life catering to everybody else’s needs rather than focusing on my own. I worked soul-crushing corporate jobs that were so stressful my doctor once advised me to quit immediately (finally, I left that job six months later). I married a wonderful man and gained two stepchildren whom I adore, and I have a dog as well.
I STRUGGLE with my weight, body image, and self-worth, and I spend way more time dwelling on those concerns than I want to admit. Although I reflect on those issues much less now since I discovered energy medicine and its benefits, along with chakra healing.
For years, I’ve been on a journey to discover how I could best assist women like me in finding that healthy balance that seems so elusive. Along the way, I became a certified health coach, yoga teacher, meditation teacher, and now an energy medicine healer. With this journey, everything began to make sense, as these elements beautifully empower individuals to live on their own terms. It feels like magic.
That’s the short story. I want to spend the third act of my life helping women find peace and health so they can live intentionally and purposefully. The world feels heavy and dark right now, and we all need to develop resilience to bring back the light.
But wait, there is more….
Meditation, yoga, and radical self-care got me through the hardest time of my life.
In July of 2020, I had just completed my yoga teacher training, and I was meditating, practicing asana, and nourishing myself every day. I believe that is why, when my life exploded, I stood strong.
On July 20, 2020, my husband of 15 years confided that he could no longer lie to himself or to me about his true identity. The quietness of the pandemic had forced him to confront the root of his sorrow and depression. It turns out, he is she. That day marked the beginning of her living her truth.
Everything I knew about my life, along with all my plans for the future, changed in an instant.
People often express their shock at how I managed to navigate the journey alongside her with grace. But I understand why: it was the consistent practice of extreme self-care, combined with energy medicine principles and chakra healing, that fueled my resilience and allowed me to love both of us enough to find joy amidst this transition.
That time included some of the most beautiful days of my life, alongside many challenges. I felt immense happiness for her as she blossomed, but losing my husband and my marriage was devastating. Maintaining a relationship with my best friend proved to be difficult as I felt every emotion imaginable, with frequent visits to anger.
Yet meditation, asana, and self-care were my lifelines during this difficult time. If I can share just a little of this transformative gift with others, then the world will be a slightly better place. Join me on this journey of resilience and holistic wellness.
