Jill has studied with the world’s foremost teachers, scholars and visionaries in the world of mind-body health. Immersed in the healing arts for over 20 years, Jill draws from a deep well of wisdom. Her passions for food and nutrition, herbs and yoga led her to explore the world's oldest system of holistic medicine, ayurveda. .
