Do you want to be Well Overall?
If your answer is yes…then you have come to the right place!
Hello! My name Becky Stevens and I am an integrative health and wellness coach.
I help women and men – of all ages and all stages – attain, regain, and maintain optimal physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being so that they can enjoy good health, optimal wellness and live life to the fullest!
I specialize in coaching individuals to prepare for surgery – empowering them to overcome anxiety, fear, and worry; heal faster; experience fewer side effects; and optimize their health both before surgery and during their recovery after.
I have over twenty-six years of experience as a nurse, board certification in holistic nursing, and am a certified yoga instructor. I have been an advanced practice nurse in anesthesia (CRNA) for sixteen years. I have national board certification in health and wellness coaching and nurse coaching.
Discovering that you need to have surgery can be a frightening and intimidating experience. Even having an elective procedure can elicit feelings of fear, worry, anxiety, and a sense of the loss of control.
Your surgeon and hospital or surgery center will give you instructions on how to prepare yourself for your procedure, but they probably won’t have the time to give you the personalized and focused attention that coaching can provide. Integrative health and wellness coaching is a client-centered, solution-based process that focuses on helping you identify your needs, choose your goals, and achieve those goals. By using an integrative approach based on holistic principles, you will be empowered to access and activate the innate healing capacity that lies within you.

Wellness is a Verb
Health and wellness may sound like the same thing, but there are some important differences. Health is a term that refers to a state where the body is free from disease. Wellness is a holistic approach to health, taking into account the person’s whole being.
Are You Lonely?
If chronic loneliness were considered a disease, its prevalence would rank right up there with other illnesses, including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. And while loneliness is not considered a disease or an illness, it’s a condition that’s associated with a greater risk of heart disease, dementia, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and a shorter life span.My intention is to help you understand what loneliness is, how it affects you, and what you can do to reduce the negative consequences of loneliness for both yourself and others.
Mindful Breathing
Mindful breathing is a great place to start if you’re interested in learning mind-body practice.
The benefit of mind-body practice is to strengthen the mind-body connection. The mind-body connection is the communication or link between our body’s chemical and biological processes and the processes that originate in the mind — thoughts, emotions, perceptions, moods, and beliefs.
In other words, the mind-body connection is about how our body affects our mind and how our mind affects our body. Being aware of and in tune with this connection is highly beneficial.
