healing through connection

Trained as both a progressive interfaith chaplain and trauma-sensitive health coach, Jeannette brings a unique mind-body-spirit perspective to all her classes and talks.

  • Congregations looking to integrate body and mind into their spiritual pursuits engage her for direct, inspiring insights into the ways spiritual living can be impacted by our thoughts, feelings, core beliefs, physical health, energy, and dominant culture - and vice versa.

  • Industry & health service venues bring her in to offer spiritual perspectives and approaches to address common work and health struggles.

  • Groups & organizations of all kinds engage her to support them in developing and operationalizing counter-oppressive communication, agreements & values.

Moving beyond the dominant paradigm that drives a divided view of body, mind and spirit opens up practical healing pathways for building our collective resilience and strengthening our connections in community.

  • “Jeannette’s thoughts are on the cutting edge of concepts that are really transformational, yet her sharing is so ordinary and regular and she is so accessible… The learnings flutter through my day and through my heart and bring me humor, compassion and delight for my soul's path.”

    ~ Kay Parent, Herbalist

  • “Jeannette Bessinger is one of the most professional people I have ever worked with. An engaging and passionate speaker, Jeannette excels in front of a crowd. She has the ability to break down complicated concepts so they are easily digested by her audience and leaves them wanting more. She has a great sense of humor and always commands the stage with her presence. She nails it every time.”

    ~ Reinette Fournier, Owner/Director Tenth Gate Center for Yoga and Meditation

  • “Jeannette has an innate ability to explain processes in terms that resonate with her audience. She takes what looks at first to be a complicated task and has participants walking away saying “I can do that!” She is personable, passionate and one of the most creative and innovative people in her industry. Her energy and love of her work comes through in every presentation.”

    ~ Caroleen Jones, COO/Owner – Poliquin Performance

  • “Jeannette's talks and classes are chock full and brimming over with the most basic, simple, soothing, cutting edge, essential, and truthful information. So many times I thought, 'Wow, that's it, that's the reason ~ that's the truth!' Her enthusiasm for life is truly inspiring!”

    ~ Eileen Tiexiera, OB Nurse
