Plants are just good for us. Plants support our well-being. Not only are they great for the inside of our bodymind, they support our mental well-being, brighten our outlook, and beautify our landscape, too.
If you need help maintaining or designing your outside plant space, send me an email. I would love to help you transform your outside environment into a beautiful space for renewal and connection.

Meditation is one of the six pillars of health. As a core practice of the Perfect Health Ayurvedic Lifestyle program, meditation earns a place of its own. Meditation offers us many benefits for which we can be grateful. Our journey in meditation begins with a mind filled with active thoughts, judgments, analysis and interpretations. And with practice, our journey takes us to a mind of silence. With a daily practice, we begin to soften into the stillness of our awareness until we experience the pureness of silence within.
The Perfect Health Lifestyle Program is expanding and people are interested in meeting together in person to support common well-being and longevity goals.
