We think of a ...
 The Noise Around & WithinÂ
The world is so incredibly noisy right now. Others demand (or we demand of ourselves) that we shift priorities, move things along more quickly, and do more with less. But,...
Have you ever felt nothing but restlessness during some meditations? Maybe your mind wouldn’t stop racing, or your body wouldn't be still, or waves of emotion came up that you weren’t expecting.Â

One thing the mind is great at is wandering. While you're thinking about past conversations, beating yourself up for what you did or did not say or making assumptions about other people's actions, tho...
I’m in the midst of reading Jack Kornfield’s A Path With Heart. It’s one of those books that teaches you something new on every reading.
One line that calls to me is: “Difficulties or weaknesses ofte...
Lately I’ve been noticing how much our energy really does move in waves. You may see it in your own life—the way energy rises and falls based on eating patterns, or how it shifts after a positive inte...

Kind Words About Stephanie
"Stephanie is a thoughtful coach, guiding with insightful pacing and placing caches of wisdom within reach. She was faultlessly professional and generous. I appreciated her patience, wisdom, warmth, and humor."Â
-Catherine
"LiveWellFlow’s courses consistently help remind me to focus on the “now.” As the ultimate “planner,” I can get consumed with “what’s next” and not truly express gratitude for the present! This course was the mindfulness reminder I needed!"
-Tracey Kenney
"The class helped me to understand that the time I invest in myself carries me through the day. It continues to help me stay grounded and present."
– Kay

“Stephanie is a thoughtful, compassionate, and empathetic coach. She has been direct and forthright, not allowing me to hide behind the excuses or "stories" as she aptly calls them, which I know don't serve me well. She has shown a dedication and focused energy that has helped me to hone in on effective, practical ways to proceed - not simply with a job search, but with a real pathway forward in my life as a working mom. I highly recommend her for any life, wellness, or job coaching needs you may have!”

"These meditations are so helpful to help me let go to the busyness of my mind."
-Shirley Hubalek
"Stephanie is a wonderful teacher. She has a very welcoming and gentle manner, so whether it is your first class or your 50th, you feel you are where you belong and can follow along with the movements easily. I have learned so many forms of qigong in Stephanie’s classes as each class is different, and she has motivated me to make qigong a daily practice.
-Nancy Axelrod
"Stephanie Lewis is a knowledgeable and professional teacher. In in her zoom-based classes on Qigong and meditation she explains and demonstrates movements to the attendees (especially the new participants). This is a great class for anyone interested in exploring skills in both mental and physical wellness."
