I began my yoga and mindfulness journey at the age of sixteen when I joined my first yoga class. I was desperate to gain a sense of peace and to gain more control over what my future path would be. Yoga helped me through the most challenging times of my life during my late teens and all through early adulthood. Later, I researched and experimented the impacts mindfulness and yoga had on one's body, mind and spirit. Through yoga retreats, several books, and many hours of yoga teacher training, I discovered a world in which love and acceptance for my human experience and continual personal progression could coexist.

I have learned that a key step to finding joy in the human experience is learning to calm your inner turbulence. The level of inner turbulence you are experiencing represents your ability or inability to turn off your reactional self and turn on your present and aware self. When calming your inner turbulence is achieved, you too can find a path forward and discover a more whole version of yourself.
