lighterliving™ addresses all aspects of a woman's life: what she eats, how she moves and what she does to feed her soul. She cares deeply about how a woman feels and thinks and her dedication to the understanding of total body fitness, via postural health, combined with her vast teacher training makes her the perfect mentor for women of her generation.
The decision to launch lighterliving™ grew out of her passion to share her story with others: that being well is simple, that we can do it ourselves and that aging is an empowering transition that can be graceful and elegant. Her goal is to make all women feel empowered and beautiful through sound information, great products and simple solutions for a simpler and lighter life.
