Conscious Wellness

Welcome to my conscious wellness practice, Tend.

I am a stress reduction specialist and wellness coach offering one-on-one, group and corporate coaching sessions (both online and off) to help you melt away stress, get fit and make sustainable lifestyle adjustments for wellbeing. Scroll down to learn about my tailored, basic services, corporate programming and workshops.

What is Conscious Wellness?

It starts with a commitment to yourself. You have a strong desire to improve your life and you make conscious choices to get there. As your wellness coach, I help you set new intentions and goals. Together, we alleviate stress and cultivate self-awareness of your body and mind via fitness training, breathwork, guided meditation, clean eating and other proven stress reduction techniques.

I approach wellness through the lens of bio-individuality. This means that no two people are the same, everyone’s needs and preferences are unique. There is no one-size-fits-all fitness routine, diet or way to unwind. Together, we identify what techniques and routines resonate with you, then I guide you on your unique path to wellness.

I take the time to understand your history, where you are on your journey and where you would like to be. Maybe you want to get fit, lose weight or learn more about eating clean. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and need to de-stress and create more balance in your life. Whatever your obstacles, let’s talk and discover how I can support you.

  • Brooke is truly a special person and an incredible yoga teacher. Her classes go far beyond physical stretching; she brings a deep focus on balance, breathwork, and mental relaxation. What I truly appreciate is how she seamlessly combines stretching, breathing exercises, and deep relaxation, helping not just to open the body but also to clear the mind. The yoga nidra part, in particular, is absolutely magical—a moment of complete relaxation that fully restores me and gives me the energy to flow through the rest of the week. I’ve been taking her classes for a year now, and every time, I feel grateful to share this experience with her. Brooke radiates so much calmness and spirituality, and her classes are truly a gift to yourself.

Learn about the modalities in my practice

  • Conscious Fitness

    I work with people who want to start an exercise practice or who already have one but want a coach for guidance and motivation. When you work with me, you get to know your body in a new way. I will design a fitness program specifically targeted to your goals and the needs of your body. Working with gravity and your body’s weight, we get moving with calisthenics, core training, HIIT circuits to low-impact resistance training, deep stretching and restorative sessions. You’ll find that each time we meet, I’m guided by the state of your body and spirit on any given day.

    *Private individual or group sessions.

    *Corporate workshops and ongoing weekly sessions.

    *2 sessions per week are advised.

  • Integrative Health Coaching

    What is a Health Coach?

    An Integrative Health Coach listens deeply and guides you towards making sustainable lifestyle shifts to benefit your overall well being. If you feel stuck or stressed in any area of your life we go deep to identify the source of your feelings and make incremental corrections so you can reach your true potential. Let’s get you feeling whole again.

    *My program, “Conscious Coaching” lasts 6 months (with a 3 month commitment) as the benefits of true, lasting change can take time to manifest. Keep going after 6 months if you want to go deeper!

  • HeartMath Resilience Coach

    For more than 25 years, HeartMath Institute has been researching the heart-brain connection and learning how the heart influences our perceptions, emotions, intuition and health. HeartMath helps you tap into the power and intelligence of your heart – your heart’s intuition – which awakens you to the best version of yourself. HeartMath Institute’s research demonstrates that different patterns of heart activity have different effects on your thoughts and behaviors. Learn the scientific principles of heart intelligence plus multiple techniques for bringing heart and mind into coherence to respond to daily challenges with more ease, awareness, balance and clear discernment.

    *The HeartMath coaching program is a 4-week commitment with an option to continue after the initial training.

  • Pranayama & Breathwork

    According to BKS Iyengar, Prana means breath, respiration, life, vitality, energy or strength, it has many manifestations in the body. And, Pranayama means the prolongation of the breath and its restraint. During pranayama breathing exercises we aim to invoke any number of different states in the body ranging from stress reduction, mental clarity to energy enhancement.

    70% of the body’s waste is eliminated through the breath! Most of us aren’t breathing properly which traps toxins in the body and keeps us in a constant state of stress.

    Through my yogic training in Pranayama techniques and Kundalini Kriyas as well as studying under master breath coach Dan Brulé, I’ll help you become more aware of your breath (and breathing habits) and how you can use it to enhance your overall wellbeing.

    *Corporate workshops and weekly sessions. Can be combined with stretching and Yoga/ Yoga Nidra.

    *Private individual and group sessions.

  • Yoga Nidra/NSDR

    Yoga Nidra is a systematic method of inducing complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. Derived from an ancient tantric tradition, students learn to reach a state of dynamic sleep. During the practice, one appears to be asleep, but the consciousness is functioning at a deeper level of awareness. Students lie down or sit comfortably in a chair and are led through a guided meditation by the practitioner. A regular practice of Yoga Nidra has shown to improve sleep, reduce stress, increase productivity and lower blood pressure and inflammation in the body. One hour of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to 4 hours of deep, restful sleep.The American Neuroscientist Andrew Hubermann attests to the cognitive benefits of Yoga Nidra and coined the term Near Sleep Deep Rest .

    *I offer 30, 45 and 60 minute sessions.

    *Corporate workshops and weekly sessions.

    *Private group sessions on a weekly basis.

  • Hatha Yoga

    I am trained in the Iyengar lineage of Yoga. This asana system is the most commonly used worldwide and allows for the use of props for adjustments. In Iyengar yoga, the focus is on stamina, flexibility and proper alignment. Transitions between poses are carefully sequenced with reference to the movement of the joints, all with the aim of avoiding injury. In my classes I like to focus on strength and balance, bringing my students to a more centered connection with their bodies.

    *Corporate workshops and weekly sessions.

    *Private individual and group weekly sessions.

  • Brooke is a very charismatic warm person who is not only passionate about her work, but also clearly has a purpose. Brooke has the ability to connect with your inner self, shows you your own beauty and truly cares about helping you with your healing journey. I cannot be more grateful for having her as my coach.

    — NT, ROTTERDAM

  • I have done several sessions with Brooke - Yoga Nidra and healing, and both have been positive and effective experiences. Brooke’s presence is present, caring, genuine and because of that it makes her sessions genuinely potent. I had a stream of bad sleep due to possible hormonal fluctuations and a stressful time at work, and with my first practice with Brooke I literally had the best sleep I had ever experience that night. We have had several sessions since and my experience felt elevated each time, I think Brooke had taken down certain mental barriers during the process which allowed me to enjoy and be more immersed in the experience.

    —SKN, LONDON

  • The healing session was made long distance through a photo, and I felt again a change in my general well being afterwards, the same for a group healing which I found informative and took away some key pointers, during this there was a general energy change. I would recommend an experience with Brooke, she deeply cares about each individual and is fully there for you, as you entrust her with your well being.

    —RK, LONDON

  • Ik volg al een tijdje de Yoga Nidra lessen van Brooke. Yoga Nidra helpt mij om het hoofd leeg te maken waardoor ik mij ontspannen en vitaler voel. Haar lessen zijn voor mij een rustpunt in de soms drukke tijden van werk en gezin. Brooke is deskundig en creëert een fijne, serene sfeer. De lessen zijn heerlijk....ik kijk er echt naar uit. Een aanrader voor iedereen die gaat voor een vitaler lijf en geest!

  • I’ve known, and learned from, Brooke Magnaghi for over twenty years! Whether she’s teaching Yoga, nutrition, fitness or self-healing, Brooke’s gift - and greatest strength - come from a perfect balance of gentleness and power!

    —BQ, NEW YORK

  • Brooke heb ik leren kennen als iemand met een liefdevolle basistoon. Afstemmend op de ander en in contact met zichzelf. Heel ruimhartig, zacht en toegewijd aan wat ze doet. In alles straalt haar wijsheid door en is een bedding voelbaar voor jou als haar gast of client. Heel subtiel worden verschillende vaardigheden door elkaar heen gewoven in de zoektocht naar het best passende bij mij als haar client. Naast alles is ook een fijne dosis aan humor en lichtvoetigheid aanwezig waardoor er een veld ontstaat waarin ‘gespeeld’ mag worden. Leren, spelen & liefde in alles wat ze doet. Het is heel gemakkelijk om met haar in contact te zijn en het is voelbaar hoe ze streeft naar het beste voor jou. Brook weet je via verschillende routes veel te leren over gezondheid voor jou. Via bewegingen of trainingen, wat past bij jouw wensen ? Maar ook over voeding weet zij, uit eigen ervaring heel veel. Healing en Yoga komen bij haar moeiteloos samen. Ik kan iedereen aanraden om je persoonlijke wens met Brooke te delen en te ontdekken hoe de reis naar persoonlijke ontwikkeling onder haar auspicium eruit ziet.

    —DB, ROTTERDAM

  • I have known Brooke for many moons now and I’ve had the privilege of witnessing her incredible growth and development. I cannot recommend her energy work enough! I’ve been struggling with persistent headaches and a tinnitus for a long time, and after just a few sessions with her, my headaches have completely disappeared and the tinnitus is now almost unnoticeable. Brooke’s intuitive and compassionate approach to energy healing have brought so much relief into my life. She has a unique ability to tune into the body and shift energy in a way that is both gentle and incredibly effective. If you're looking for someone who truly understands the body-mind connection and can help you find healing on a deep level, Brooke is the person to go to! I am truly grateful having her in my life.
