About Us

The modern world is all around us. The technology that is so prevalent leaves little room for metal relief as our phones, tablets, and computers are constantly notifying us of “something”, which while convenient, we may have forgotten how we are truly connected with each other by unseen energy much like gravity that binds us to the ground. While this technologically driven lifestyle not only continue to nudge us every second, our busy urban lifestyle can leave little to no room for ourselves. Maybe you are feeling ungrounded and that you have lost your center?  Obviously, yes! Society and school never taught us how to manage stress and live mindfully. We are taught to toughen up, and get in line like everyone else. These messages and lack of time to stop nurturing yourself can result into emotional distress, and failure to connect with your inner wisdom for spiritual growth.

Growing up in a family with a mother who is a Chinese medical practitioner and wellness teacher, I was heavily influenced by naturopathy and its philosophy, so the east is woven into my upbringing. In the west, while growing up in the melting pot of the United States, I absorbed many different wellness philosophies from all around the world. With a well-rounded view of many different belief systems, I am inspired to integrate the east into the west. It was this inspiration that led me to create new ways of healing and follow a never-ending journey in pursuit of knowledge and healing techniques. My principle approach is to encourage my clients to learn, embrace and embody the natural lifestyle, so they can live a balanced life and to be their own healer.                  

                                              

 

  Well then, here is my story… I started doing yoga when I was completing my Becholor Degree in UC Berkeley. Immediately, I felt fascinated by how yoga can improve one’s health, and this practice is not only beneficial on a physical level, but on a mental level as well. I began to search for more, so I decided to take a journey and went on my own spiritual quest into the isolated jungles of Costa Rica for a month. I was totally immersed in the yogi’s way of life. This is where I trained for my certification as a yoga instructor.   As a certified yoga instructor and holistic hypnotherapist, my passion for helping and healing others had always been prevalent. Along my journey as a healer, I met with all different kinds of clients with totally different needs. It is this experience which broadened my perspective that drove me to further search and pursue other healing methods. It is my compassion for others that drives me to want to help as many people as I can and promote a full-spectrum of health. In order to help others lead a better life, I truly believe that the key is to start with healing all aspects of the human being: the mind, the body, the heart, and the soul. - Alison
