Hello, my name is Ashley!

Welcome! I’m an in-house attorney (specializing in real estate) and Yoga instructor living in California, on a mission to find life balance through mindful health in this quickly moving world.

Gluten free and diagnosed with Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism for over a decade, I’ve spent years learning about the mind-body and mind-gut connection through trial and error. After white knuckling through stress and anxiety for years, I’ve finally started to figure out what works for my mind and body - and what doesn't - when it comes to diet and life balance.

Culinary adventure, meditation, raising awareness about causes I care about, spending time in nature and exploring new destinations are some of the ways I've found to create a sense of harmony between my career and the rest of my life. Here is where I’ll share what I've learned, as well as updates on my journey as I continue to better understand what “life balance” really means. I’ll also share information about my yoga teaching schedule and related events.

Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, I’m a Berkey water filter convert living in a cozy apartment with my husband Eric and our two cats, taking it day by day and remembering the mantra: “what we do does not define us - how we live our life does.”
