Lori’s passion is to help you regulate your emotions, learn mindfulness and somatic techniques to stay aware and present in your body. It’s possible to become aware of the meaning you give to situations, be more conscious about your choices, and live a more authentic life.
“I want you to imagine how you’d like your future to look and by working together; you will attain some of these future goals and live the life you always wanted.”
