Nothing is inherently wrong with you. Your diagnosis (if any) is a temporary experience; it does not define you. You don’t NEED me for long, I’m just a guide. But, if something feels off; if your head is clouded; if your career, relationships, or health are stressful; if you’re sick and tired of being sick and tired; if you can’t comb through your options; if you feel stuck, unsure, or overwhelmed; if you can’t find relief… I’m here for as long as you need. But the power is in YOU. I’ll help you become so self-aware that you wholeheartedly trust your intuition enough to offer yourself the answers: no doubt, fear, or guilt. Processing confusing or challenging events requires you to step back: when you pause and breathe, you can make choices from balance, with clarity. I will not make decisions for you, or impose advice; I’ll offer tools you need to mindfully operate, so you can make ALL choices (big and small) with confidence. I’ll bring you back to your baseline of JOY. We like to reach for comforts outside of ourselves when in an unbalanced mental, emotional, or physical state. But you have everything you need to feel better NOW. I will show you just that, PLUS build up your confidence, mindfulness, and self-awareness so that you feel secure and satisfied in all areas of your life. This is the yogic path, and it works.
