I hope you will find a special place to learn about anti-inflammatory & hormonal balancing eating, mindful eating, and yoga on and off the mat. I was inspired to start BE EXTRA YOGA after spending my 20s chasing the extraordinary and continuously finding myself disappointed. 

My perception of what would make my life special, successful, and an exception to the norm was based on achievements and perfection. And I could never quite reach it, even working my hardest. By my mid to late 20s, I found myself living in fear and constant anxiety. My pain was a secret I was trying to keep, but the longer I held it in, the harder and less fulfilling life became. 

Fast forward to years of yoga, eating anti-inflammatory foods, soul searching, self-work, the birth of my beautiful children and my outlook on what makes life extraordinary has completely changed! During these years I became certified RYT-200 yoga instructor and a wellness counselor with certification from Cornell University.

I have found the extraordinary in the simple moments in life, in the leaning inward, in service to others, and in exploring my purpose through spirituality and connection to people and the world around us.  

My hope for you here is that you find the tools you need to do the same in your own life!

I think you will find yoga and eating foods for improved gut health to be a place of jumping off into the discovering of how extraordinary you are – just as you are!
