Hobbies & Life Interests

In my free time, I enjoy being in nature.  Some of my hobbies include Hiking, Kayaking, Rock Climbing, attending and running Meditation and Yoga Retreats, going Backpacking, Camping, and doing some amateur Woodcarving.


For myself and my community, I am fostering Greater Joy, Ease, Peace, and Life Satisfaction through my holistic life coaching brand (still in development) while fostering the creation of a brick and mortar Health + Wellness hub.


I teach transformational practices, somatic release therapies, hands-on & distance healing modalities, and using nature to tap more deeply into relaxed mindful states where personal awareness and transformation can happen most easily. I also study health from an energetic perspective of bio-electricity and have a whole person body-mind-spirit approach to coaching and mentoring.


My purpose of living in New England and New Hampshire in particular is to 

1) Meet and grow community prosperity and wellbeing 2) Purchase land for a family homestead 3) Improve the land and increase the level of consciousness of people everywhere through my Outdoor Adventure company (yet to be created).
