TESTIMONIALS
“I have been working with Diana for years with all she does and offers. I have made such huge strides in my health: back pain gone, energy much better, stomach issues and joint pain gone, and with the help of her newest capabilities as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner I am sleeping so much better, rashes I have been trying to figure out are gone, and for the first time in my life I know what it feels like not to be craving foods but rather I feel nourished! I have lost 13 pounds and I truly have tried everything in the past with no permanent success like this, I can not speak highly enough of all she does and I feel so much more in control of my health and understand all that I am accomplishing and why.”
~ Cindy B.
“I love to exercise and have tried numerous diet things through the years. I have had a hard time figuring many things out as to why I could not lose weight, felt fatigued, and hurt even when I was trying to stretch and release muscle tension. Diana has helped me get rid of so much pain and I have sent many of my friends to see her with the same benefits. Now, with the her help, I have gotten to the root of many things and am seeing profound results. I have lost 29 pounds, am sleeping double the deep sleep time, and I do not feel hungry often at all. I know when I need to eat, but I do not feel “starving” and have no desires for junk things that I once did. I am so excited to be getting to the answers and, with her help, I can work on all the angles I need: body alignment, stress management, nutrition, and understanding why I am doing all I am.”

Pranayama and Meditation
3 Month Course
w/ Diana Spiess
Last year, Diana offered this program and those that participated have continued to tell her, even now, how helpful and powerful these practices have been for them. She continues to strive to help people in their search for wellbeing and balance in their lives and being able to do this program at home in the evening allows for more ease. in scheduling and not needing to drive after such deep relation.
Starting in January, Diana will be offering 2 live calls per month continuing through the end of March... 6 calls total. She will guide the class through numerous pranayama and meditation practices and the calls will be recorded for those in the class to receive afterward to use later whenever wanted/needed. This is an amazing way to experience these practices and being able to practice from anywhere without needing to travel is very powerful.
Diana has been teaching fitness, health, and wellness for over almost 30 years. She has extensive training in yoga, pranayama, and multiple meditation practices along with many other modalities that she incorporates into all she teaches. Check out Diana's background, trainings, and experience at her website.

TESTIMONIAL
My love and witness of the benefits of yoga in my life finally made me pursue the Yoga Teachers training. I feel Diana's 29 years in the fitness industry. and her many advanced certifications make her an expert in her field. Her passion to equip others with safe, comprehensive tools to improve their quality of life is a gift to her students. I was very concerned about the time commitment, but find the weekends to be packed full of valuable information, and a haven from a busy career and life. I made my decision on the treadmill at the studio when I read the quote, “If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you." This YTT training will challenge and change you, improve your quality of life, and teach you so much more than yoga postures. I highly recommend this program and feel you cannot find a more knowledgeable mentor in this endeavor.

Staying on track during the holidays and managing our stressors.
It is, again, so hard to believe that we are heading into another holiday season. Each year when we get to this point, it’s a bit of a shocker and so much starts happening so fast.
I work with many people in numerous ways to help them manage this time of the year: staying on track with exercise, staying on track with nutrition and food planning, managing stressors as the seasons change and we begin to spending time with many people, and working on sustaining energy and stamina as our bodies feel the shift that the darker, colder seasons bring. There are so many ways to manage all of these things and, if we set up a plan ahead of time, it is much easier to stay on track than to wait and try to jump in once the chaos is in place. Each January, I try to encourage my clients to work towards not needing the same resolution next year. After the holidays and all they bring, the New Year’s rush to make changes hits hard and, unfortunately, does not last long and leaves many feeling burnt out and defeated. If you would like to handle all of this differently this year, we are here to help you!
Here are some great, very useful and effective tips:
- Journal Daily. Putting things down, in writing, is so releasing and helps to bring clarity. It “cleanses” the mind and allows us to witness ourselves and our lives in a powerful way.
- Schedule your self-care as you do all else. This can be done daily, weekly, and monthly. Sit and look at your schedule and make your workouts, classes, shopping and cooking, and mediation/quiet time all equally important to anything else that you book. Not only are they at least equal… they are more important.
- Before you enter any party, work, gathering, or anywhere, pause and envision the outcome of the event or time as you hope it to unfold. Send out the frequency before physically entering and watch what occurs. This, alone is so powerful and allows us to even be more calm and prepared if a surprise shows up.
- Set times to prepare healthy foods and make 2-3 times more than you need to freeze. This allows you to have healthy, nutritious foods ready for the times that get busier. Eat before going out if you do not think there will be healthy foods available at your events.
I encourage you to consider my health coaching program that is ongoing and/or the mediation and pranayama series I am doing beginning in January. I set this up at this time of the year to help all through and these are both done on a way that you can participate from anywhere. This save you time and allows for flexibility to bring these great things into your life with more ease.
We hope to see you throughout this amazing season and wish you and your loved ones much joy!
We are so thankful for all our essence friends and truly enjoy helping you care for your essence.
Namaste
🙏🏻
