Mindfulness practices have been central to Andrea’s work as an artist and educator. She is a 500-hour certified Embodyoga teacher, is certified in Holden Qi Gong with Lee Holden, and practices Vipassana Insight Meditation. As one of the first recipients of an ACLS Contemplative Practice Fellowship in 1999 Andrea integrated yoga labs into her academic courses on anatomy. She currently includes Qi Gong in her workshops as a bridge to bring mindfulness practices into our daily lives, ensuring we can keep moving even in small spaces and challenging times.
