Midlife is not a crisis.

It’s an invitation to feel good in your body, trust your intuition & live with purpose.

Aging isn't optional,
feeling old is.

It's time to work with your biology, not against it. And rediscover a body and life you love.

Buffy Owens
Somatic Movement Facilitator & Life Coach

I’ve been doing this work for 20+ years, and believe it or not, it still lights me up every day. I love helping people move beyond what they think is possible—shifting mindsets, tuning into the body’s signals, and learning to trust the wisdom that’s already there.

Conscious Movements came to me during a Zen retreat in 2004. It was a pivotal moment, and I knew instantly that the next phase of my life would be to live my vows through my work.

Today, I empower people—especially midlife women—to move well, age well, and create the impact and life they desire. I teach them how to work with their biology by aligning deep nourishment, natural rhythms, and simple healthy habits with how the body is designed to function. We’re talking about less stress, biological rhythms, deep nourishment, energy, and profound trust in your body—the real keys to aging well and feeling amazing in your skin.

Which embodied path is right for you?


Conscious Movements is….

A space for those who feel overwhelmed, isolated, or broken because they don't fit into this noisy, more-and-faster-is-better culture that emphasizes youthfulness over healthfulness. And those who need or choose a slower and soul-honoring way of being in their body and life.

I empower people—especially midlife women—through embodiment, breathwork, meditation, education, and community. I help them befriend their bodies, reconnect with the core of who they are, and (re)claim freedom, wholeness, and joy.
