In my 20 years of experience managing my autoimmune disorder and practicing as a licensed marriage family therapist, I have come to understand that transformative self care encompasses two components. Giving myself permission to be the recipient of self-care, and nurturing the connection between my mind, body, spirit and community.  The best part, my peace and contentment continue to increase, despite my circumstances. My passion is to creatively and authentically inspire others to understand their own value and resiliency through the use of mindfulness.  Well-informed and inspired human beings can make a very positive and powerful impact upon the world.  Tip:  Never keep a compliment to yourself.  Van Gogh said it best,  “I feel there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.”
