In 2024, Desiree created My Space My Peace to help people slow down, de-stress, rest and rebalance. ​

Desiree has been practicing yoga for almost 30 years. Over the past 3 years, she did in depth studies and training in yoga, breathwork, meditation, sound healing and Reiki. Her studies and training led her to India (yoga) and Japan (Reiki).

In addition to arranging 'stop & rest' retreats, she currently provides sound baths each week at two outpatient mental health facilities in the DC area. She also facilitates weekly yoga immersion study courses at Love Yoga Studio and teaches weekly kids yoga at the after-school program at Fairland Sports and Aquatic Center.

She regularly offers sessions that mix yoga, sound healing, meditation and breathwork. They occur at yoga and dance studios, middle and high schools, and one-on-one with those in need. She includes Reiki in offerings to those who request it.
