Meet Alex

With a background in healthcare journalism and an interest in all things ‘naturey’, Alex Strauss combines her skills helping other Earth-conscious midlife women (and enlightened guys!) manage their stress, get healthier, feel more confident, and experience more joy every day.

Certified as both a Natural Mindfulness Guide and a Face Yoga and Gua Sha instructor, Alex is the author of the bestselling book, The Mindful Walker and The Simple Path card deck and host of Rise Up Rooted TV.

Because of her natural ability to make people feel seen, heard and loved (even on Zoom) she created The Wellbeing Workshop, an online community bringing Earth-conscious women (and enlightened guys) together to deepen their connection to the Natural world, themselves, and each other.

Animal lover, tea drinker, & travel enthusiast, Alex has three grown daughters, two granddaughters, two dogs and two cats, and is learning to play classical guitar.
