The brain is likes a series of rivers (neuropathways). The more we go to a river- the harder it is to go to another one.

It’s not impossible. But it is by no means an immediate switch to “be a better person” or “get it together”.

It is a long and incredibly beautiful journey into rewiring the brain through self-acceptance, radical love, openness and mindfulness.

Being open to discomfort- to change and to elevation. Being open to a joyful life where everything is possible.

Because it is.

Especially healing.

My mother is my favorite example of this.

The medical trauma my mother has endured is nothing short of horrific- but she took her power back.

When I found meditation and in it- a deep and beautiful part of myself I had never known or seen before, I told her about it and urged her to find hers. And I was persistent.

I lead by example- keeping up my sacred practices while visiting my parents, I think I even forced them to sit down and do one with me.

I showed them masterclasses with meditation teachers.

I began showing them asanas.

I even found a woman who could sing the song of the trees she touched and so many different styles of chanting and I showed them all of it.

This fascinated my father- I will never forget it.

He was coming around.

But my Mom dove in deep with me around that time. She now has surpassed me for time spent in sitting and guided meditation.

And the result?

I could go on about the color in her eyes reappearing- bringing sparkle to places that had long lost it while she blindly trusted a system that was deeply interwoven for her- having spent the last 36 years serving it as a nurse. The system and everyone in it failed her. But despite all of the trials, tribulations and trauma, she went within- and she reconnected to her own healing.

She lost weight- physically and energetically. Her aura cleared out fragments of her past every time she sat down to meditate. She regulated her nervous system and changed the way her body responded to her through chronic and debilitating pain.

She became Tina again.

She is my greatest testimonial.

I worked with her on mindset, conflict resolution, emotional regulation, trauma recovery, grief support and processing, somatic experiencing and healing, mindfulness, mobility, strength training, posture, breathing, nutrition, drainage and detox.

It has been one of my greatest achievements and honors to witness her reclaim her sovereignty.

I know I chose this life and these parents. It is not lost on me that I came here to navigate the terrains of deep despair, loss, isolation, avoidance, anger, grief, shame and sadness in my family and myself. I came here to observe the different systems in place and to survive the inoculation and to free others, as well.

I came to explore alternative practices and preventative medicine. I came to discover the biological laws and the elements of the body. I came to recognize the energies and frequencies of us and our environments.

I receive confirmation of this daily in ways I will probably never articulate.

But when you are onto something- you just know.

I knew with meditation, I knew with my Mother, and I knew for so damn long that there’s no way we all just get sick and die. It never resonated with me for a minute that a diagnosis was permanent or that any symptom in the body is a pharmaceutical deficiency.

I knew there was so much more to everything- every symptom, disease, behavior, or adaptation. And I began to dive deeper and deeper through the years and when in alignment- everything truly does conspire to your education and success.

I found resources, mentors, webinars, and had revelations about my own experiences in health and in my own healing.

And now I have helped countless others- showing them how the body heals and freeing their mind of the stress and anxiety of trying to believe it can only go one way.

It doesn’t. You don’t have to suffer- with chronic stress, illness, IBS, endometriosis, PCOS, diabetes, COPD, herpes, chronic pain and tension, anxiety, binge eating, reoccurring thoughts and experiences, or whatever it is.

Book a free one-on-one with me today to have a conversation about healing and how we’re never separate from it and see if the support I provide in my coaching offerings could be life-altering for you- whatever you’re holding and wherever you are in your journey.

Open up to the possibility of healing, to life being sweeter than we thought, and to being supported in unexpected ways.

Bring your symptoms, your grief, your sadness, and everything that you feel and experience. It’s safe here.
