Our Mission
Comfort Zone Center for Whole Self Healing is a community created to raise consciousness by raising awareness through a holistic pathway to whole-self health and well-being. Our ultimate goal is to bridge modern day health & medicine with holistic and ancient philosophies and techniques for a fully "integrative" approach to health. With this knowledge and education, we can improve clinical outcomes, reduce health care costs, improve disease prevention & treatment and empower the consumer towards living a healthier lifestyle removing the bad habits that contribute to the conditions plaguing our culture today.
We exist as an environment where folks feel safe exploring themselves more fully in an effort to live a more abundant and authentic life emotionally, physically, spiritually, professionally and personally. We believe in a mind, body, spirit connection. By creating balance and symmetry between these bodies, we're able to heal the body as a whole.
In 2010, we have expanded our reach to now include an online video channel that's used for marketing our facility and events as well as a host for yoga classes and specific presenter webinars. Instructions for how to use our Channel are on our Home Page. As we grow with this technology, we look forward to offering more classes, educational information and webinars via this feature.
Our Story
The Comfort Zone Center for Whole Self was founded by Ed & Wendy Harrold in 2006. Ed began his career in yoga and holistic health 12 years ago after leaving a family-owned insurance adjusting business. Ed was introduced to yoga through an old friend and partner with admittedly "no intention of exploring this lifestyle so deeply". Ed was a gifted athlete whose body was beginning to fail him. He thought yoga would help some injuries that were beginning to plague his body. Little did he know he would embrace this tradition so enthusiastically and move on to open yoga studios in NJ and create a yogic-based performance training program designed for athletes and fitness enthusiasts called Flexibility For Athletes.
Wendy's catapult into yoga and holistic health began in 2002 because of the sudden loss of her mother to lung cancer. To heal from the grief, Wendy began to explore yoga and energy based healing rituals foreign to her at the time. These life changing modalities led her on a mission. She left her 12-year corporate position in banking to learn, educate and heal others and bring all of this to the masses. Shortly into her journey, Ed & Wendy met. Embracing their journey together, they followed their hearts to open their dream here in Lewes, DE; a comprehensive facility focused on healing on many levels.
In addition, Ed's Flexibility For Athletes programs can be experienced here at our facility and leading fitness facilities throughout the country. To learn more about this program, visit our sister site at www.mindandbodyworkout.net. Ed is also the Director of Yoga and Sports Training for Stephen Cope's Institute for Extraordinary Living at Kripalu Center. The Institute, in its' partnership with Harvard Medical School, studies the effects of yoga strategies to the challenges of optimal performance in the arts, sports and various forms of highly concentrated activity.
Located in the Delaware beach resort of Lewes, our facility is comfortable and peaceful boasting an intimate setting. We're a "whole self" health & wellness center that's enjoyed by our local community with daily yoga and wellness classes. As a retreat and training center, you can enjoy the work of leading professionals in the holistic health industry through week-end and week-long programs by viewing our Upcoming Events. In addition, we offer massage and Tuina bodywork services, Ayurveda and other healing services. Our retail boutique includes yoga clothing and accessories, meditation cushions and bolsters, DVD's and CD's, books, gift items and much more.
Through a strategic partnership with local hotels and our own dorm housing, we're able to offer affordable and modest housing for our all programs, trainings and retreats. We're 2 miles to the Lewes Beach and 3 miles to the park beaches and hiking and biking trails of Cape Henlopen State Park. Enjoy the serenity and beauty of this quaint beach town with all its' history, shopping and restaurants. Some of our programs and retreats will include meals as part of the experience while others allow you to explore the local fare.
Our Goal
To teach clients how to embrace new ways, through some very old traditions, in holistic health. Through different modalities, allow us to push you to the edge of your "comfort zone" in an environment specifically designed to encourage and facilitate healing.
We do this through:
