Wellness Isn’t a Luxury—It’s a Relationship

Let’s be honest: the word “wellness” is kind of loaded these days. It’s been co-opted by consumer culture—packaged, priced, and polished until it feels more like an aesthetic than a practice.

But real wellness? It’s messy. It’s raw. And it’s deeply personal.

Wellness isn’t a weekend retreat or a stack of supplements. It’s the way you relate to your body. It’s knowing when you need to move and when you need to rest. It’s being honest about what fuels you—and what drains you.

In my classes and workshops, I try to create space for that honesty. We breathe. We move. We ask questions. And most of all, we listen—to ourselves and to each other.

Wellness, to me, is:

• Sustainable: Built into the rhythm of your real life

• Embodied: Rooted in how you feel, not just how you look

• Empowering: You’re in charge. You get to choose.

Whether it’s on the mat, at a retreat, or just taking a quiet moment on your kitchen floor—wellness is always available. You don’t have to earn it. You just have to return to it.

"You are already whole. The practice is just remembering."
