I believe in my heart and soul that women have the power to heal a world that is in need of healing. But we can’t heal the world if we don’t take care of and replenish our hearts, bodies, souls and minds.

Taking time for yourself is the most important thing you can do – not just for you but for your family, your friends and the world at large. It isn’t selfish or shallow but a critically important part of a healthy lifestyle especially for women, who often put everyone else’s needs before their own.

I am all about facilitating self-care for women whether through body fitness, brain fitness or Women’s Wellness Circles where you learn and share with other women.

We are all at heart social animals and connection to others is important at all stages of life. Without connection, loneliness, despair and a sense of isolation from others can occur. Through connecting, we have the opportunity to give and receive affection, love, empathy, trust, and encouragement.

We connect by sharing with others, learning with others and growing with others. I create opportunities for connecting with other women through fitness groups, active aging fitness seminars, and Women’s Wellness Circles.

The definition of Empowerment is “The process of becoming stronger and more confident especially in controlling one’s life and claiming one’s rights”. As you gain confidence in your physical ability and overall fitness you do more and dare more.

As you learn more about caring for yourself you become stronger and more balanced and as you connect in a wholehearted way with other women you learn and grow and build relationships. Through all of these individual steps, you have started to change your life and heal the world.
