When she was 23 years old, she was divorced and raising three children on her own while making $80 a week as "Ellie from the deli." Her body was unhealthy; her mind was chaotic, and her spiritual being was weighed down with fear, self-pity, anger, and worthlessness. Life was overwhelming. At this low point, she created the Meditative Movements™ technique to heal her body, mind and being. Her recovery journey and personal practices have spanned more than 40 years. She graduated from the College of St. Catherine in 1992 and has taught thousands how to harness their own personal power in a new way. She is an author, health and wellness columnist and professional speaker. Ellie spends her winters in Florida and loves being with her six grandchildren and family during the Minnesota summers.
