Some of Alison’s most powerful lessons have been born from her life experiences. In her junior year of college, Alison’s father passed away, six months after diagnosis, from pancreatic cancer. With a broken heart, a tangled mind, and a pure desire, Alison began to study and explore different spiritual traditions, spending extended periods of time in nature, both recreationally and meditatively. Cultivating a regular yoga practice, including daily meditation, breathing exercises, and physical asana, Alison connected with the tools to create an inner strength needed to embrace the twists and turns of everyday life. Years later these tools became instrumental in helping her to heal from an accident that left her hospitalized and immobile.

While practicing one of her favorite hobbies, aerial acrobatics, the rigging from the apparatus came undone. Falling over fifteen feet to the floor below, Alison shattered both wrists, lumbar vertebrae, and her left heel. The weeks and months that followed became the ultimate journey in healing. Focusing with the eyes of the soul, the artistry of the mind, the strength of the heart, the love of family and friends, the precision of western medicine, and the wisdom of eastern practices, Alison experienced a full recovery. These life events continue to shape and lead her deeper into the journey of health.

Alison believes following the voice of the soul is one of the keys to leading a healthy life. Alison’s “soul voice” has carried her around the world, facilitating her ability to experience and learn from diverse personalities, landscapes, and cultures. From the cancer centers and circus rings of San Diego to the hills of Hollywood and the beach front bungalows of Hawaii, from the orphanages of India to the coasts of Costa Rica, from Panamanian rainforests to Mexican shorelines, from seven year old contortionists to seventy year old pioneers, from high profile celebrities to everyday individuals, she continues to thrive serving the kaleidoscope of humanity around the globe.
