ABOUT US
VITA, meaning life in Latin, and EDUCARE, meaning to lead out what is within, to cultivate growth, and to nurture inherent potential, is a concept related to the roots of education and translates as; “to educate for life.” CARE is significant in the VitaEducare name emphasizing empathy, compassion, and self-respect. What we care most about is that which holds our attention thereby impacting our alignment or misalignment in terms of what we want to create in our lives. The VitaEducare experience aligns the mental, emotional, energetic, physical, spiritual, and social aspects of our lives. When these aspects are balanced, we become whole and intuitively inspired to pursue life experiences grounded in inner strength, coherent thinking, and confidence. Through this education we cultivate clarity of thought and purity of intention. Every flicker of thought, every whisper of emotion becomes a seed of creation. VitaEducare will plant seeds within your hearts and minds to inspire this growth and change. You are responsible for watering and tending these seeds which will yield a fully grown perspective of your life choices and ultimately, the opportunity to harvest this change.
VitaEducare provides a wholistic approach that inspires a journey of wellbeing and transformation that yields mentally and emotionally healthy, strong, resilient, confident, and self-led individuals. It restores balance within our mental, emotional, energetic, physical, spiritual, and social systems. This education aligns the heart and mind which develops confidence, cultivates potential, transcends challenges, and ultimately empowers us to live in accordance with universal principles from which we create our best life.
At VitaEducare, we believe that the emotional, mental, and spiritual non-physical components of disease and toxicity are often ignored. Our health, wellbeing, and the electrical energy in our bodies depend upon our emotions, thoughts, and way of being. When we store emotional pollution within us, we are out of alignment with who and what we really are. Conflict and negativity inhibit the production of immune chemicals which depress our immune systems. So, in order to heal our physical issues, we must also consider the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of ourselves that are contributing. We provide educational programs that offer insight into these connections, tools for awareness, processing, self-healing, and ultimately an understanding of the impact this wholistic approach can have on our lives. Through this healing, people have transformed their pain into purpose and created new opportunities for themselves and others.
We envision a world where people understand how to harness their intrinsic potential, cultivate self-awareness, and develop positive, personal energy to lead fulfilling lives and contribute to their families and communities. We imagine a realignment to the principles of natural law discoverable through human reason and rational analysis and grounded in the fundamental truth of goodness and respect for life. We have been inspired by Aristotle’s words, “Educating the mind without educating the heart, is no education at all.” This highlights the importance of not only focusing on the cognitive aspects (our minds) but all the qualities that make us human (our hearts), and ultimately bringing meaning to our lives. This meaning creates purpose driven lives that will have positive social impact on our communities. As people connect to their humanity and embody the wisdom of the heart, we envision a better world for our children and our children’s children.
Our purpose is to improve and strengthen the personal lives and collective heart of humanity in order to create a better world. One by one, as each person addresses their personal conflicts, transmutes their pain, and develops themselves from within, it impacts those around them, contributing to healthier homes and stronger communities. When our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and values are aligned with what we want to create in our lives, we are able to navigate challenges with greater clarity and composure. Through this wholistic educational approach for wellbeing, consciousness is raised, vibrations are elevated, and the negative aspects of society are counterbalanced with heart-inspired wisdom. Pervasive in society are negative mental and emotional paradigms that affect us all, including negativity, fear, addictions, emotional and generational trauma, family and school dysfunction, depression and anxiety, division, social engineering, economic turmoil, social media drama, and ultimately, a lack of care for others and unconsciously, for ourselves as well. VitaEducare seeks to empower people with the tools to Rewire the negativity, Remove the dysfunction, Release the trauma, Rebuild the resilience, and Reignite the spirit.
Founders
Both mothers of sons, Jessica Stevenson and Sue Vessella bring a philosophy of empathy, strength, encouragement, and heart to this labor of love. They recognize the parenting challenges of today and feel that it takes a village to affect and sustain real change. Through VitaEducare, they envision a better world for our children and our children’s children. Their work, focusing on self-empowered thinking, has been influenced by Joseph Murphy who said, “As a person thinks, feels and believes, so is the condition of his or her mind, body, and circumstances.” They are passionate about teaching this heart/mind connection, and inspiring a new way of thinking that ultimately ignites confidence, nurtures positivity, and transforms lives.
