ABOUT US: Welcome to Radiant Heart
My Dharma
As the founder of Radiant Heart, I'm constantly (and gently) reminding myself of my dharma.
Your dharma is your inherent purpose, or true calling in life. It is what you were born to do. It was what was written on your soul from the moment you were conceived.
I have infused my dharma into my company's core values and vision. At Radiant Heart we're a company with the purest purpose - helping you find your way to your authentic self.
Our Core Values:
Our Vision is a world where we all get to unapologetically -
live as our authentic selves,
be in connection with others,
and share loving kindness with all beings.
ABOUT US: Our Lifestyle Team
Christine is the founder of Radiant Heart, a lifestyle and longevity practice in Laguna Beach, where she guides midlife go-getters to create nervous system resilience, emotional self-regulation, and optimal metabolism. She works locally and worldwide.
With a unique approach combining functional medicine, neuroscience, and yoga therapy, Christine helps clients reset their bodies and minds to release stress, anxiety, and the weight—physical, emotional, and energetic—that no longer serves them.
Christine’s wellness journey began in her twenties when she struggled with ADHD, anxiety, and life-threatening depression. Eleven years later, she was diagnosed with CIRS (toxic mold), Lyme disease, and SIBO, which reignited her mental health challenges. This period of intense physical and emotional struggle led her to redefine her understanding of health.
Her path to healing introduced her to Ancient Wisdomand a holistic approach that combines Eastern and Western modalities. She trained with renowned teachers like Tia Little, Dr. Amy Wheeler, becoming a Trauma and Somatic informed yoga teacher, Yoga Therapist and Stress Resilience Coach.
She also had the honor of visiting India in 2022, where she deepened her studies of yoga at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in Chennai, further enriching her approach to holistic health, immersed in the timeless wisdom of T.K. Krishnamacharya's work.
With over 25 years of experience, Christine
now combines her extensive training and personal healing journey to help others reconnect with their authentic selves, release what no longer serves them, and heal from within, with love.
