Introduction

I am a holistic life and health & wellness coach. I am a certified yoga therapist, meditation instructor and life coach. Whether you a driven professional who wears many hats in life, or you retired.

If you are feeling this way or simply have lost motivation to take care of your health, I would love to connect with you!

These may include yoga to increase flexibility and strength and meditation to relieve stress. Yoga therapy include emotional tools as well lifestyle such as sleep, toxin free living, diet and exercise. All in all, I look at my clients within a holistic perspective while understanding their unique talents to greatly reduce stress, overwhelm and anxiety that impact their lives. I serve private clients in the San Mateo and Santa Clara counties. I also teach a variety of yoga styles in local Community Centers and Fitness Centers in Foster City and San Mateo. I have 12* years experience teaching hatha, chair, restorative, gentle and yoga from beginners to advanced practitioners. I am a listener and I will constantly encourage you to achieve your goals.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I like to do an introductory session to find out what you are looking for and see if we are good fit. This lasts between 15-30 min. Then, I will send you an email with plan and pricing.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I am certified life coach with the Ford Institute and iCONSCIOUS. Certified Yoga Teacher Certified Yoga Therapist (Advanced training) Restorative Yoga Teacher Certified Meditation Instructor Certified Nutrition Coach Gallup-certified Strenghts (talent) coach

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I found that yoga postures opened the world of healing from anxiety. I wrote about it in the book" Practice: Wisdom from the Downward Dog" that I co-authored. I used to get easily triggered and this ultimately impacted my ability to work at the level that I wanted. I kept "protecting" myself so that I would not get overwhelmed. I know that there is a moment to do just that. However, I knew that I needed to put out some intentional effort to move past discomfort and experience a greater level of joy and peace. And it worked! Now, I have released lots of time that I had used being self-critical or afraid with productive time on things that matter the most, whether that is through service or in personal life. Life can be free from suffering, an deeply fulfilling!

What types of customers have you worked with?

People from various walks of life. From professionals, to stay-home-moms, to retired people. I have also worked with children and teens. They all have in common their want to be free from suffering (whether emotional or physical), to go the next level in their lives.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I guided a group of people to a weekend tulip retreat. The combination of sightseeing, in addition to the practice of yoga, meditation, nutritious meals and community has a synergistic effect!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

It is important they take the time to understand what you are looking for. Make sure that you feel cared for and understood before you hire someone. Also, check for their expertise and credentials. Be sure that you feel comfortable. The connection that you establish plus their expertise will evolve with time, fulfilling the goals and desires that you did not even know you had. It can be very powerful!

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Think what kind of results you want to experience. - Internal results may include: increased self-awareness, sense of joy, peace, confidence, energy. - External results: better mobility, increased productivity, better sleep, reach your ideal weight, harmonious relationships, increased flexibility. Be clear on how much time you are willing to put towards your goals.
