The Yogi & Ayurveda Instructor

Jen’s path to yoga began on a physical level but quickly evolved into a deep appreciation of the practice’s mind, body, and soul connection. She knew this practice was much more than its physical benefits, and she wanted to explore it on a deeper level. During a very stressful period in a corporate career, yoga and meditation became her sanctuary. And when she had a severe case of inflammation of sciatic nerve, yoga became her saving grace. Jennifer’s knowledge and share the joy of yoga, she earned her teaching certification to help others. Her yoga practice focus is on moms-to-be, new moms, kids, teens and senior yoga, as these groups benefit greatly from yoga and meditation.

ON GOING SUPPORT

This is a partnership. Follow-up appointments are usually scheduled within 2 weeks to 1 month after the initial consultation. However, for those who suffer from conditions where they need and want much more support. Jen available for whatever kind of support you need, from energy work, folk remedies + prayers, herbal, supplemental, and nutritional suggestions, to meal planning, diet eliminations, recipes, and sometimes people just need someone experienced with chronic illness to listen to their story. For others with conditions that aren’t quite as serious, follow-up consultations are important to review how the changes you have made are affecting your body and to choose new herbs or dosages to reflect those changes.
