My Story

As someone who has lived with Body Dysmorphia Disorder most of my life, I deeply understand how much anxiety and fear can surround our appearance.

I know first hand how much it affects the way we see and feel about ourselves, and the way we show up in the world (or don’t).

When I first found Face Yoga back in 2013, I was living in Bali on a journey of healing and radical self ownership.

I had developed deep lines across my forehead from all the years of stress and trauma, and my BDD went into full swing. I wasn’t just concerned about my appearance, I was now afraid of aging.

My journey of holistic face care started out very superficially and with a tonne of fear.

The lines diminished, which I was very happy about, but what I found was so much more profound.

For the first time I liked the way I looked exactly as I was. I felt I had found the secret not only to feeling and looking beautiful, but also to having a sense of control in the way I was aging.

This sense of empowerment I felt I wanted to share with everyone! Especially women that are struggling with the same fears and anxieties.

I got certified in Face Yoga in 2017 and started teaching while continuing to certify in other holistic techniques. As I curated protocols for each of my clients and workshops, more and more I saw the need for us to change our relationship with our perception of aging and beauty.

I focused on exploring my own conditioned biases of beauty and aging while listening closely to my clients’.

I realized if we shift the focus from scrutinizing every detail of our face to the bigger picture of all- around health and radiance, looking and feeling beautiful at every age is the natural outcome.

I believe in self ownership as an act of radical self love. I believe that beauty is something you evolve into.

You have choice in the way your face ages.

All I want for you is for you to feel empowered and confident in your own skin. I am living proof it’s possible. And you deserve to feel beautiful and radiant at every stage of your life!
