The Author
Kris Hanvey earned her master’s degree in nursing from Case Western University and has been a registered nurse since 1987, specializing in mental health and addiction medicine. Her lifelong passion for healing and holistic wellness led her to begin her yoga journey in 2001. Today, she is a yoga teacher, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist, meditation teacher, Western herbalist,
Ayurveda practitioner, Reiki Master, and astrologer who has been studying since 2003 and offering readings since 2022.
Kris is deeply inspired by the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. Her path has taken her near and far in search of the “House of All” at the feet of her guru, Neem Karoli Baba, only to discover that the true house must be built from within.
When she is not writing on Substack, Kris enjoys puttering in her garden, walking her dog, spending time with loved ones, teaching yoga, studying astrology charts, consulting on Ayurveda, and indulging in her newest passion—baking gluten-free bread. Through her work and writing, she seeks to help others cultivate greater awareness, healing, and a sense of home within themselves.
