About The Weather Vein

Why the Weather Vein?

Like a traditional weather vane that is guided by the wind's direction, the daily weather forecast helps us to prepare for whatever external conditions may be on the horizon. Rarely, however, do we do take time to pay attention to our own internal weather. The Weather Vein brings focus on the energy that runs through the veins and every cell of our body. When we take time to explore how we feel, physically, emotionally and spiritually, we may choose to interact with our external world differently. This type of self awareness can help us to more authentically navigate the ups and downs of our life's adventure.

Goal

Stephanie believes that each person has hidden natural abilities and talents. Through experiencing and/or experimenting with a variety of mind/body and expressive art forms, each person can unite their unique voice with their life’s purpose. The Weather Vein offers motivational artwork, a variety of classes and workshops that enable a person to connect with their own higher wisdom.

As an Artist

As an intuitive artist, Stephanie's goal is to inspire others to explore their internal emotions. When she creates art, it comes from an authentic place where she lets go of any expectation on what the end product will be. As a result, there is a vulnerability in her art pieces that hopefully creates a genuine connection between the viewer and herself. Stephanie loves trees and being outside in nature. Finding inspiration from a variety of plants and wildlife, Stephanie enjoys hiking in her spare time. Many of these walks influence her art.

As an Advocate for Mindfulness and Sustainability

Stephanie is a Pennsylvania Forest Steward as well as a Pennsylvania Master Naturalist. In this capacity, she likes to bring awareness to the vital connection that exists between our local ecosystem, our daily living practices, as well as the relationship between our bodies, mind and the natural world around us. Whether participating in outdoor mindfulness, an expressive arts workshop or one of Stephanie's mind/body classes, the focus is placed on observation through the eyes of curiosity.

"As we move through various sensory experiences, we learn to cultivate and trust our own internal body-mind system. By bring awareness to our body’s sensations, feelings, and inner rhythms, we can learn ways to re-calibrate our energy. This inspires change physically, mentally and spiritually leading to better overall health, happiness and stress management."
