Wellness Coaching

Wellness Coaching is about transformation and growth.  It is an opportunity to step outside of your comfort zone and get unstuck in some aspect of your life, or open up new possibilities for yourself.   I become a mirror for you to hear and see yourself more clearly.  I reflect back to you what I hear you say and together, we intuitively construct a targeted plan of action that suits you.  Are you ready to take your life to new places with intention and purpose?  Let's get started!

​Wellness Coaching is a powerful way to cultivate a strong and clear relationship with yourself which will support you in creating and living the life that you desire and deserve. 

Topics can range from relationship issues, personal and professional development, time management, health, nutrition, creativity, confidence building, career direction or expanding your skill set to courageously live a life that you look forward to everyday.

It doesn't matter where you are in the world, as I have clients located on several different continents. If you are ready and willing to turn your dreams into your reality contact me via email or call 415-419-4848 with any questions to get started. 

It's never too late to live life on your terms! 

Somatic Yoga Therapy

Somatic Yoga Therapy is an integration of classical yoga, contemporary mind-body-spirit psychology, mindfulness, and personalized practice. I will support you to become aware of experiences that have become embedded in the tissues of your body and to recognize and release the mental and emotional habits that may be blocking the flow of your vitality.   Implementing the ancient and sophisticated tools of yoga that focus on health and wellness on every level: physical, energetic, mental, emotional and spiritual.  Somatic Yoga Therapy is a multi-layered healing journey that brings balance to the body and mind through the use of yoga postures, breath work, hand mudras, meditation practices including visualization, guided self-reflection and lifestyle awareness.

Yoga Nidra

What it Does
Yoga Nidra switches you out of fight or flight mode and into the relaxation response --- your body's natural healing state ---- where both revitalization and regeneration naturally occur.   Yoga Nidra peacefully gives you access to your deeper levels so that you feel a connection with your whole self.  The world slows down and you take a break from stressful, everyday concerns.  Limiting beliefs that hold you back from fully living, leading to freedom within your mind and body opening you up to living your fullest potential.  Yoga Nidra helps you catch up on lost sleep!  20 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equal to 3 hours of sleep!  This practice suspends your mind between being awake and asleep, which is a healing level of mind where you receive the ultimate power nap that goes well beyond normal sleep.  

Conditions addressed by Yoga Nidra
Stress (the cause of most illnesses today), anxiety and depression, insomnia, high blood pressure, addiction, ADD, PTSD, digestive conditions, chronic pain, cancer, autoimmune disease, psychological challenges and more.  Yoga Nidra can help you feel grounded, clear, peaceful, and whole again.

How does it work?
While resting in stillness, you are systemically guided through a visceral experience of the five layers of your being:
    1. The physical body
    2. The breath and energy body
    3. The mental-emotional body
    4. The higher-mind - intuition and the witness consciousness
    5. The bliss body

Each layer is the doorway that opens into the next level. As we bring awareness to each individual layer, the coverings quickly dissolve, allowing us to exist simply as our true selves.  In this state of purity and authenticity, powerful, transformative healing can occur.

Research 
Research conducted at well-recognized universities and medical centers including Stanford University, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Ohio State University, Medical College of Ohio, Banaras University and others, shows regular practice of Yoga Nidra offers a viable means of prevention and reversal of numerous ailments and diseases, including cardiovascular, stress-related illness, chronic pain, and psychosomatic conditions.  Yoga Nidra strengthens the immune system, helps regulate blood pressure balances the nervous and endocrine systems, improves sleep and aids insomnia.  Yoga Nidra aids all stress related illnesses, which are 99% of illnesses today.

It's a fullproof method!
There is no way to practice Yoga Nidra incorrectly!  Whatever your experience, the practice will still work - even if you fall asleep during it!  The deepest layers of yourself are always awake and receptive, and will experience the full journey of yogic sleep, whether you consciously remember it or not.
