Background & Training

About Elyse

Elyse Preston is a holistic wellness guide, facilitator, speaker and the founder of Be More Connected.

Elyse's work focuses on centering connection as an essential ingredient for healing and social transformation.

In our current culture, we are experiencing a crisis of disconnection, in which loneliness, burnout, anxiety and depression are on the rise. Her mission is to support leaders, changemakers and visionary entrepreneurs to experience energizing connection and support, so that they can cultivate communities, services, and experiences that center healing and liberation. The only way that we can begin to heal society is if we do the important work of healing ourselves. Elyse started her career as a youth development professional and experienced burnout and chronic stress in the direct service field. As a result, she set out on a journey to learn how to better care for myself and her community.

She believes that when we intentionally invest in creating healthy relationships with ourselves and others, we are shifting the energetic conditions in our communities and the wider world. She uses the modalities of yoga, mindfulness and human design to support clients in seeking their purpose, creating community and living more connected lives. She's so grateful for the opportunity to share the practices that she loves and is inspired by any occasion to deeply connect with others.
