Optimal Health ~ Clarity Call

My Big Why

I lost my mother to colon cancer when she was only 57 years old--I was 36 at the time.

When I was 42, I lost one of my best friends to Sarcoma--another cancer. This beautiful friend of mine was one of the "healthiest" people I knew. She worked out, and hadn't eaten one deep fried item since we were 18 years old. Losing these two influential people in my life set my life's work into motion.

I began to investigate inflammation, diet, functional nutrition, energy work, anatomy, physiology, and fascial and neural connections. This incredible journey has led me to heal my own body, become a licensed manual therapist, and study coaching. All of it was driven by my desire to--of course outlive my mother, but also to live my best life--for whatever time I may have left.

I am like an Alchemist searching for the elixir of life ~ our best path to Optimal Health.

Today I combine my experience, my knowledge of the body, and my soul-full orientation to life to help people feel better, to understand their physiology, and to literally transform their lives--from the inside out.

My Calling

I love helping people feel better--in their bodies and their lives. With a Masters in Adult Education my approach is to start by presenting my clients with knowledge. I listen with an open heart, and aim to provide exceptional service--with warmth and kindness as my foundation.

I realized long ago that most of us only have an 8th grade understanding of our bodies. We are made up of trillions of cells, organ systems, chemical messengers, microbes, and a mind-blowing barely comprehensible magnificently complex series of inter-related mechanisms that all work symbiotically--like a living coral reef. There is a staggering amount that we don't know, and most don't have the slightest idea how our bodies function, or how our organ systems work together.

Many of us have been disconnected from our bodies--for a VERY long time. We have grown up in a culture that advocates ignoring and masking our symptoms, until we get really sick. Most western trained doctors have very little knowledge of nutrition, and our system doesn't advocate for us to take wellness into our own hands. Our food guidelines are built by the corporations that benefit from them, and our health--or lack there of--suffers from corporate desire to profit from our sick-ness.

Honestly--for the system--there is no profit in you being well. If you learn to eat right to support your cells, and you body functions better--you might not need to pay them as often. Oh the calamity. It is NOT in their best interest to train physicians how to heal you.

Soapbox aside, there is also much to learn from other countries that prefer their citizens to be well. There are scores of published medical papers and studies that have unlocked the key to nutrients, phytochemicals, and using quality food to help our bodies function optimally. I love this.

My Mission

My mission is to share Optimal Health information with You--the masses. To heal the planet--one person--and their trillions of cells at a time. If we all get to feeling better, maybe our brains will function optimally, and that will help us be kind, loving, compassionate humans--toward each other and the planet.

I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist/CranioSacral Therapist since 2008. I started coaching in 2017--because I wanted to help people heal on the inside. To help people quash limiting beliefs, and rewire their mindset--so that they get more of what they say they want.

The work I do feels sacred. There is an intelligence in the body that informs my hands. I strive to meet the tissue where it is at, and offer presence and witnessing to what you are carrying. Often I get intuitive hits that may include words, images, or seeing diagonal lines of tension in your body. I listen with my hands, and follow what your body presents. I may ask permission to make noise on your behalf--by sighing, expressing emotion, or toning.

My work is trauma-informed, as I too have walked through the fire of life's challenges. My skillset includes transformational life coaching, hands on techniques, energy work, movement, breath, and sound healing--sprinkled with mindfulness, gratitude, and presence. ALL of it--To heal these beautiful bodies we reside in.

I am glad you are here.

I can't wait to witness the transformation you'll create in your life with a healthier body.

What Clients Are Saying...

This isn't just coaching... Monika has an amazing ability to listen to what I am saying and reflect it back to me in a profound way. She helps me to get out of my crazy-making stress brain, and reconnect the pathway between my head and my heart.

"I used to be a glass half-empty person. Now I see that the glass is re-fillable! The biggest change I have noticed is that my self-talk is MUCH nicer. When my self-talk is better, everything is better, and I am a better mom, and better communicator in all of my relationships. This has been great."

Life coaching helped me to not just set goals, but to attain them through smaller simple steps that were manageable and doable. Monika was instrumental in helping me adjust my perspective to thinking in a more positive way with a positive outcome. It wasn't learning how to be something I'm not, but how to embrace who I am and see myself in a positive light.

Monika has been my massage therapist for over 15 years and I dread the thought of going anywhere else. I have believed in the importance of massage therapy in my overall health regimen for over 20 years and have been treated by other therapists in many parts of the country. I consider Monika the best. Her approach encompasses her broad training not only in pain relief and relaxation. She is highly knowledgeable in nutrition, healthy living and stress relieving techniques. As a vital 76 year old woman I highly recommend her services as a way to live your most productive life no matter your age.

I have been a client of Monika's for over 15 years, and I have a standing appointment to see her every two weeks. Monika is attentive to the discomfort in my body that I am able to verbalize, and has an uncanny ability to find those spots that I didn't know needed attention. It's this ability that keeps me coming back, and has me recommending her to everyone I know. Monika is also very flexible with scheduling, and has worked with me numerous times to accommodate my schedule. Monika not only cares for my physical well being, but she also genuinely cares about me as a person, and makes me feel like a valued client.
