Jen is a wild woman at heart, but mouthier than your typical naturalist. Despite her intensity, she's a pretty gentle Yoga teacher and reasonable herbalist, with fewer expectations than you'd guess of a greying redhead. She enjoys guiding clients toward self-empowerment by sharing the same techniques that help her transcend her own traumas and self-limiting stories:

Mindful Movement
Breathwork
Sense Withdrawal
Meditation
Natural Space Making
Bioregional Foods and
Herbal Medicines
