What are your intentions for Heal My People?

1. To be the watering well for all-things self-care by sharing the practical tools I’ve gathered over the years; educating about the mind-body connection.

2. To leave a legacy of self-care, innovative wellness, and deep restful joy - celebrating our ancestors.

3. To support entrepreneurs by reducing their stress levels so that they may adequately walk in their purpose with confidence and focused minds.

4. Advocate for therapy.

What is self-care?

Self-care is a way of life - how you show up for yourself, as yourself. It is proactive healthcare. It is not to be seen as a luxury. It is the intentional and necessary act of implementing various activities to maintain an optimal level of overall health - mental, physical, spiritual, emotional, and societal.

What do you mean by Heal?

Becoming the best version of ourselves :: Unlearning things that no longer serve us. Thriving in our authenticity without apology. Identifying any trauma that may be resting in our bodies and unearthing it with patience and self-love.

Who are your people?

If anything I share resonates with you - you’re probably my people.

Why prayer + meditation?

God First - always, in all ways. My passion centers around adding additional tools to our personal spiritual sanctuaries and finding pockets of joy on a daily basis. Prayer + Breathwork are the perfect marriage that align the spirit, mind, & body connection. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. Meditation is a scientifically-proven way to reduce stress in the body by regulating our nervous systems, reducing stress, and igniting calmness in any environment or situation.

Is this therapy?

No. These tools and practices are therapeutic. However, they are not a substitute for therapy. This is part of the process in our mental health and self-care journey. Knowing this, I have created an on-going list of resources.
