Hi. I'm Stephanie

Mindfulness and Qigong Instructor, National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Attorney, Family Caregiver, and Founder of LiveWellflow. And integral to all of these parts of my life is my mindfulness practice.

Stress is a constant in today's world. Like many of you, I was drawn to mindfulness at a time in my life when I was stressed and burnt out, operating on autopilot to push through, feeling like my brain was on fire. In the end, I paid for it with my health. Along the way, I quit my job, paused my career, and traveled to Asia.  Since then, I've studied a wide range of personal self-care practices, including meditation and Qigong, all while continually learning (and sometimes relearning) how to best care for myself.  For more than a decade, these practices have served me well in my career as a practicing attorney, as a family caregiver, and in dealing with the challenges of life in general.  


Mindfulness is about non-judgmental present moment awareness and a calmer nervous system so that we can be open enough to give ourselves more choice about the decisions we make and the paths we take. It's so important for your health and well-being to increase your awareness about how you are sabotaging your own well-being and what shifts you can make to bring greater ease into your life. Often we are not even aware that we are making decisions that don't serve us well or why. There is so much about life that is out of our control. But there is much that is and that is where we can make a difference in our lives. 

Mindfulness can be an enormously supportive practice as you build into your life ways to set boundaries and prevent burnout before it's too late - before your body starts screaming at you like mine was at me. Driven by an inner calling, I founded LiveWellFlow to help overwhelmed professionals discover how to care for their well-being in the context of their own life - personally and professionally.


With so many competing demands, it can be hard to focus on what you need for good health, inner calm, and peace of mind.  You might not even be sure about where to begin. That is where LiveWellFlow comes in, offering a compassionate space, support, and community to build and cultivate your mindfulness practice and decompress, recharge, and redirect your energy in ways that better serve you. 


It's time. It's time for you to take the next step for your own well-being. It would be a joy and an honor to bring my passion, knowledge, and experience to partner with you on your own amazing journey.

In peace and gratitude, 

Stephanie
