There is so much I wish I had known in my early 40s, at the beginning of my own perimenopause journey. I spent ten years doing a lot of research on the different symptoms I was experiencing, all the while thinking how nice it would’ve been if I could have found all this information in …

Yoga, Meditation + Neuroscience

May 1, 2023 //  by Christy

The research is in! For ages people have been espousing the benefits of yoga and meditation–but without having any scientific proof that they actually work.

[VIDEO INCLUDED] I’ve been placing a special emphasis on the feet lately in the work I’m doing with some of my private clients. Let’s face it, for most of us, when it comes to the feet, it’s out of sight, out of mind. But the feet are our foundation–in yoga poses and in all our …
