Donna
Donna is very inspiring with her drive to help you become the best that you can be. My best skill is that I truly listen, without judgement, without trying to “fix” you.
Passion for health and well being grew from Donnas own personal experiences. Everyone has a story – it just doesn’t need to be so confusing or painful.
Seeing the power of yoga, time to stop and become aware, and nourishing foods ability to heal, lead Donna to improve her own health, and that of her daughters.
Seeing others struggle with lack of time, uncertainty around life choices, confusion in general, people striving for balance and harmony in life, never quite reaching it.
Combining massage, yoga therapy, nutrition and subconscious mind shifting is how Donna brings out the best in you. The body and mind cannot be separated, our thoughts create physical responses in our body. Starting with our habits and beliefs is the fastest way to permanent results in all areas.
