About Me

Welcome! I’m Melissa Tuell, a passionate wellness advocate with nearly three decades of experience in healthcare, including 8 years as a yoga teacher, 9 years as a wellness coach, more than 29 years as an occupational therapist. My mission is to help people live life the healthy, happy, sexy way—by embracing holistic well-being and the transformative power of practices that can expand, evolve, elevate your mind, body, soul.

My Journey

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals across all walks of life, helping them improve not only their physical health but also their emotional and mental well-being. As a yoga teacher and wellness coach, I’ve seen firsthand how integrating regular movement, mindfulness, self-care practices can unlock sustainable transformation. My background as an occupational therapist gives me a deep understanding of how our everyday environments and habits shape our well-being.

Philosophy and Approach

I’m a firm believer in the power of the Blue Zones approach—living in harmony with nature, practicing regular movement, mindfulness, nourishing our bodies with whole foods, nurturing relationships, keeping our sense of purpose alive. My work incorporates the principles of Lifestyle Medicine, focusing on sustainable, evidence-based practices that promote long-term health and vitality. Whether you're looking to improve your physical fitness, enhance your mental clarity, or simply feel more vibrant, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. It’s not just about living longer—it’s about living better.
