Why green dragon?
In Chinese culture the dragon is a creature of good fortune, transformation, and guardianship. Some believe that the dragon is a symbol of the spiraling nature of our DNA and the spiraling nature of the earth and heavens. In the US the Green Dragon tavern in Boston was a place where the early revolutionaries met and began the construction of our Constitution. And well, I have always been drawn to the Chinese dragon.
So the dragon represents connection with the Universal Spirit, Transformation, Revolution, Spirals, Community, and Well-Being. It is a symbol of opportunity, support, courage and joy.
Founder
Stephanie Smart has been involved in a healing journey for many years. She began her connection with Ortho-Bionomy as a client in 1986 during her recovery from a car accident. She then began taking classes and is now an Advanced Practitioner and Associate Instructor. Along the way she entered the corporate world and ended up as a trainer and manager. At this point her love of teaching rose to the forefront as well as her complete burn out on corporate behavior and hours. So, a Master's degree in Chinese Medicine followed and the beginning of the process of becoming an Ortho-Bionomy instructor. Here we are in 2009 with the culmination of this process and the formation of Green Dragon Wellness.
Oh yeah, along the way she became a parent to two wonderful boys.. Stephanie works part time and spends the rest of her time thoroughly enjoying the delight of being with her family.

"We must learn to fly within ourselves and launch ourselves into
spaces where we cannot see a landing place. This is the only true
courage." - Dr. Arthur Lincoln Pauls, founder of Ortho-Bionomy
