Self-Acceptance

Informed by elements of Kristin Neff’s Mindful Self Compassion Program, open source ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), Value Direction, and Positive Psychology we offer education and experiences outside the coaching container not to make you whole, but to help you see that you always have been. You are your own most valuable resource, let’s start mining!

Paleo Feasting

Guided by the Paleo Template, we offer education and experiences outside the coaching container on options to nourish yourself in ways that honor culture, genetics, mental and physical health, and most importantly PLEASURE; with attention and visibility to all body types and identities.

Connection with Nature

We offer education and experiences outside the coaching container intended to reconnect us with our natural world. From disconnecting from devices to grounding mindfulness practices in natural places of power, we work to illustrate that human beings are and can be one with nature, regardless of how long we have spent negating that.

Educated Substance Use

Utilizing education, experiences, and advocacy outside the coaching container we will help you to understand how informed adult substance use is not the enemy it’s been made out to be by popular culture. In fact, we believe it is integral to wholeness, healing, holistic health, and, most importantly, responsible behavioral autonomy.

Body & Sex Positivity

With pleasure at the forefront of our ethos, we seek to validate your body, and your sexual health & wellness. We offer education and experiences outside the coaching container to help you to discover, reclaim, or deepen your connection to your body, your sexuality, and all of the vast holistic health benefits that can offer.

A letter from our Founder

Maenad Wellness has been an idea and an obsession for a decade or so, now. As a neurodivergent individual, validation and self acceptance have been personal struggles for most of my life. The peaks and valleys of my own healing journey have yielded lessons and challenges, wins and setbacks.

That said, I have also, from a very young age, had an inalienable sense of self. Product of an unstable childhood, I grew to be self reliant and learned to turn inward when seeking the solution to many of life’s issues. As many economically insecure youth who “make it out” do, I became quite self absorbed; driven to survive and thrive, and to defy my programming.

My journey has taken me through the classroom, the kitchen, diligent autodidactism, deep self exploration, and finally to this period of my life where I have come to understand that not only a strong love of self, but a strong sense of love and connection to fellow humans of all incarnations is pivotal to our health and development.

Our world has shifted so far away from community and togetherness, especially in recent years, and we are seeing the unfavorable outcomes play out in a micro and macro sense, daily. We are quickly becoming individualist, compartmentalized, disconnected. We are forgetting the sense of human connection that has driven our culture since its inception.

Enter, Maenad Wellness. An idea, really, that we are still collective. That we can embrace the things some once held as different or taboo, and that in so doing, we reclaim our humanity. That intentionally engaging in these things; self-acceptance, consciousness expansion, sexuality, robust sustenance, movement, priority of rest; we become MORE human, and closer to what we have classically perceived as “divine” than we as a race have ever been.

We say “we” are Maenad not only to symbolize the togetherness of folks that have worked and will work on and benefit from this idea in the coming years, but all that the mission and offerings of this idea can bring to us, proletariat. I have spent so much personal capital and effort researching the aspects of health put forth here. Not only in an academic sense, but in a sense of daily, personal trials. I truly hope you will engage with us for this new era of human health. It is my sincere hope that Maenad Wellness and Dionysian Coaching will be a new chapter for you as much as they have been for me.
