The Birthplace of Intentional Healing & Wellness

Good evening, everybody. My name is Andrea Mancuso. 10 years ago, I was living with my boyfriend of 3 years. One day when he went to work, I called him and a man answered the phone. He identified himself as a detective. He told me if I wanted more information, I had to go to the local precinct. When I got to the precinct, after questioning me, he told me that my boyfriend had been arrested. He was part of a heroin ring in Brooklyn. My entire world shattered in that moment. I spent the next several years suffering with depression, anxiety, and panic attacks. And it's ironic because as a school psychologist, I spend my days helping other people. But at that time, I couldn't help myself. Until one day, I literally became sick and tired of being sick and tired. And I decided to take intentional steps steps towards healing. I began therapy. I enrolled in transformational workshops. I started using essential oils to support my body physically and emotionally amongst a variety of other self-care practices. My journey to heal continues. And as a result, I decided to write a book to share my story and healing strategies with the world. Depression, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress no longer controls me. Thank you.
