Nancy Stevens is Mom to 4 sons age 14, 16, 23 and 24.  She is married to a Grammy award winning music producer.  Becoming a more grateful and an everyday grateful person began when she took her first yoga class and the practice of being grateful through mindfulness was introduced.      She often felt a covering of negativity and frustration and realized that this was not how she wanted to be and live.    This way was emotionally crippling. The open door of a non judgmental yoga class placed her on the path of healing and gratitude growth.     Nancy is a healer and uses her expertise as a yoga teacher, yoga trainer and wellness coach to help people.   Gratitude in her own words and experience: "Practicing gratitude on a personal and professional level has changed me from the inside out, literally."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
