About us
The Wellness Willow provides a safe space where people can become empowered to build physical, emotional and spiritual strength and stability in order to lead a life of peace, stillness and joy. With the knowledge that each individual, in their sovereignty and freedom has everything they need within themselves, we seek to support this knowing through meditation, mindfulness, and wellness practices including yoga and healing modalities.
Tara has been serving the Philadelphia community as a pediatric occupational therapist for almost 20 years. Farah has a background in special education and educational consulting. Their paths crossed when Farah needed a therapist for her son. They worked together for years, but it was not until later that they would meet up again at yoga teacher training and realize that their paths were aligned in a different way. Both Tara and Farah have been on their own healing journeys bringing them to the practices of yoga, meditation, mindfulness, Ayurveda, and many other healing modalities. Farah travelled and studied extensively to heal her body of a life-threatening genetic heart condition and Tara travelled and studied ancient practices to heal from a lifetime of trauma. As mothers, colleagues and friends they are aligned in their vision to share tools learned from their own practices for people to become empowered to heal themselves and live in this chaotic world with a greater sense of peace and calm.
