"Each day comes bearing its
own gifts. Untie the ribbon" - Ruth Ann Schabacker
This website is my creation of resources,
ideas, and inspirations to assist you in living the happiest
and healthiest life possible.
There will be a monthly nutritional supplement
feature, and a healthy recipe and book recommendation. I
will also include updates on the classes that I teach and
the wellness services that I offer.
Namaste,
Ginny
Benefits

re-education) releasing strain patterns with traditional exercise
to increase fitness status. Exercise can be functional and
fun.
Testimonials
"After being discouraged by several failed attempts
at local gyms I asked Ginny to put together a home exercise
program for me. The program, which incorporates Somatics,
strengthening and cardio work, is set up so that I do a different
set of activities each day of the week. After several months
I am still feeling motivated and challenged. Ginny has provided
excellent suggestions and follow-up, and I am starting to
see some real benefits which include having more energy, strength,
and a better sense of my body in space. It has been a very
rewarding experience working with her." - Marilyn

| "I have been doing competitive
ballroom dancing for ten years and it can really
take a physical toll on one's body. My weekly sessions
with Ginny really make a difference out on the dance
floor." - Kay LaPointe |

"I will be seventy years old this November and I love
the movement of Somatics. Ginny Jackson's style of teaching
has helped me to awaken my body, and has allowed me to move
more naturally and easily. Her teachings and methods have
helped me to move freely, and have given me more energy throughout
the day. Since she started this wonderful program she has
added other forms of movement re-education, which, like Somatics,
teaches us to perform more efficiently, really helps to keep
everything in balance, and allow me to move fluidly. Ginny
has tied this whole package together with a huge bow. It is
a wonderful, 'anyone can do it' program." - Sandy
Rodgers
"I've had osteopenia for over 15 years. To my surprise
and delight, my last bone scan showed I was normal! I actually
increased my bone density. I don't take prescription drugs
for this, so what have I done differently in the past three
years between bone scans? Only three things: vitamin D supplements,
a walking routine (3 miles/day), and yoga for alignment. I
also added 1/4" to my height, which is clearly due to
stronger muscles supporting my spine thanks to yoga."
