Conscious Wellness
Welcome to my conscious wellness practice, Tend.
I am a stress reduction specialist offering one-on-one, group and corporate coaching sessions (both online and off) to help you melt away stress, get fit and eat clean. You can choose from basic services, special bundles, workshops and tailored programming. Scroll down to learn more.
What is Conscious Wellness?
It starts with a commitment to yourself. You have a strong desire to improve your life and you make conscious choices to get there. As your wellness coach, I help you set new intentions and goals. Together, we alleviate stress and cultivate self-awareness of your body and mind via fitness training, breathwork, guided meditation, clean eating and other proven stress reduction techniques.
I approach wellness through the lens of bio-individuality. This means that no two people are the same, everyone’s needs and preferences are unique. There is no one-size-fits-all fitness routine, diet or way to unwind. Together, we identify what techniques and routines resonate with you, then I guide you on your unique path to wellness.
I take the time to understand your history, where you are on your journey and where you would like to be. Maybe you want to get fit, lose weight or learn more about eating clean. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and need to de-stress and create more balance in your life. Whatever your obstacles, let’s talk and discover how I can support you.

I know firsthand the physical and mental consequences of chronic stress. Through the experiences and vast knowledge I’ve gained on my own healing journey, I’m able to guide you as you begin your own.
If you are committed to making lasting, positive changes, I will support you on a path of incremental lifestyle adjustments designed for you to thrive. From exercise to clean-eating, self-awareness and deep relaxation techniques, the Tend experience is tailored to your specific needs.
I hold certifications as a Fitness Trainer, Integrative Health Coach, Heart Math Mentor and Yoga Nidra Instructor, specializing in stress reduction, self-awareness and cultivating resilience.

Conscious Fitness
I work with women who want to start an exercise practice or who already have one but want a coach for guidance and motivation. When you work with me, you get to know your body in a new way. I will design a fitness program specifically targeted to the needs of your body. Working with gravity and your body’s weight, we get moving with HIIT circuits to low-impact resistance training, deep stretching and restorative sessions. You’ll find that each time we meet, I’m guided by the state of your body and spirit on any given day.

Integrative Health Coaching
What is a Health Coach?
An Integrative Health Coach listens deeply and guides you towards making sustainable lifestyle shifts to benefit your overall well being. If you feel stuck or stressed in any area of your life (weight loss, career, relationships, family, etc…) we go deep to identify the source of your feelings and make corrections so you can reach your true potential. Let’s get you feeling whole again.

HeartMath Mentor
For more than 25 years, HeartMath Institute has been researching the heart-brain connection and learning how the heart influences our perceptions, emotions, intuition and health. HeartMath helps you tap into the power and intelligence of your heart – your heart’s intuition – which awakens you to the best version of yourself. HeartMath Institute’s research demonstrates that different patterns of heart activity have different effects on your thoughts and behaviors. Learn the scientific principles of heart intelligence plus multiple techniques for bringing heart and mind into coherence to respond to daily challenges with more ease, awareness, balance and clear discernment.

Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra is a systematic method of inducing complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. Derived from an ancient tantric tradition, students learn to reach a state of dynamic sleep. During the practice, one appears to be asleep, but the consciousness is functioning at a deeper level of awareness. Students lie down or sit comfortably in a chair and are led through a guided meditation by the practitioner. A regular practice of Yoga Nidra has shown to improve sleep, reduce stress, increase productivity and lower blood pressure and inflammation in the body. One hour of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to 4 hours of deep, restful sleep. I offer 30, 45 and 60 minute sessions.
rub honey into the night’s back.
make sure the moon is fed.
bathe the ocean.
warm sing the trees.
