The collective energy of each new year inspires people to make changes they believe will bring more happiness and success. We all know how the New Year’s resolution trend goes. Stereotypically, January finds gyms full, liquor cabinets empty, and fridges stocked with leafy greens. By spring, most of the promises made in the attempt to improve our lives lie broken, collecting dust in the basement. We take this to mean we’ve failed or that our will power simply wasn’t strong enough. We didn’t push ourselves hard enough. 

Oakley knows the struggle of pushing herself beyond her limits and would like to offer a gentler approach. Before being catapulted into a new phase of her healing journey through a life-threatening car accident, she was doing all the right things. She worked out, meditated regularly, and drank green juice. Her professional life was thriving. But she knew something wasn’t right. Her body was trying to process her unconscious programming still present from childhood. After her accident and a Lyme’s Disease diagnosis, Oakley was forced to come face to face with her own darkness. That journey is what led her to utilize meditation and visualization to bring in more joy. Using neuro-linguistic practices helped her create new pathways in her brain that opened her heart and released old negative patterns. Now she guides clients and listeners in this life-changing practice to redirect the brain. Taking sovereignty over our thought processing is the best resolution for transforming every facet of our inner and outer lives.
