Who am !?


I am a Yoga and Meditation teacher, an Expressive Arts facilitator, and Board Certified Health Coach. I am also a mom and a military spouse. Originally from Sweden, I have lived in Spain, Italy, Germany and currently reside in the United States. I have been a part of the Special Operations (SEAL) community for over 20 years and know a thing or two about living with anxiety and uncertainty. The stress that I have experienced related to my husband’s many deployments and injuries eventually led me to yoga and meditation, which awakened a new level of presence and joy. 

Throughout the years I have learned many different tools that support behavioral change and shifts the nervous system from the sympathetic state to the parasympathetic. I help my students and clients to transform their conditioned minds, creating lasting change so they can live life with ease and rising up to everyday challenges even in the midst of chaos.

I truly believe that we can all find joy, live with purpose and learn to stay balanced. We can build compassion towards self and others and live life with more presence while reducing stress and anxiety. It would be my honor to help you ease you and your family’s everyday challenges and create a stabile platform of support.

Coach & Yogi

I am passionate about wellness and creativity and I am driven to help adults and children explore mindfulness tools such as yoga, meditation, and expressive arts - improving physical health and well-being through self compassion and self awareness. I believe it is time for all of us to awaken to the power within to create strong and compassionate relationships with everyone around us, starting with ourselves.

I work with the body, mind, and creative spirit. I honor you as an expert in your life and believe that you have the capacity within yourself to discover freedom and fulfillment. Through yogic and expressive arts practices I help you create positive life rituals that support you in meeting the challenges of everyday life. By exploring your subconscious and creative mind, and somatic wisdom you can reach equilibrium.  The practices that I offer are based on the neuroscience of behavior change and methodology based on thousands of years of yogic practices, proven by modern science to recalibrate the nervous system.

You can live end enjoy a full life by handing the power of your life back to you!
