This certification has enhanced her knowledge as a provider for those who are interested in alternative treatments to support mental health such as nutritional support, yoga, meditation, skin brushing and cultural healing. It is her goal to foster alternative healing, promote healthy coping mechanisms and help guide others in a journey to achieving overall health–for both the mind and the body. Throughout her experience, she has encountered many people who want alternative methods of managing their health. Unfortunately, she has found that the same people either don’t have the access to resources or have no idea where to start. Thus, ZenDeva was born. It is a forum to explore dynamic aspects of holistic wellness and healing. |
