Karen Bernetti

Founder of The Serenity Circle

Hi! I’m Karen. Affected by the family disease of addiction for my entire life, I began my own healing journey 13 years ago in the rooms of Al-Anon. And then I discovered yoga, which opened me up to a whole new world. This experience not only transformed my life, it sparked a mission.

Today, as the founder of Mindful Family Recovery and The Serenity Circle, I’m a Mental Health First Aid certified yoga instructor, meditation guide, and Yoga of 12-Step Recovery leader. My relentless pursuit of understanding addiction led me to become a Recovery Support Specialist and achieve Level 1 certification in The Invitation to Change approach, created by the authors of the book, Beyond Addiction.

What fuels me every day is the drive to help others who are affected by a loved one’s addiction find hope and healing too. Through mindfulness, education, and heartfelt connections, I've created a space for collective recovery. And having discovered firsthand the power of collaboration, I’m excited to be sharing this space with a wide variety of brilliant heart-centered healers, coaches, teachers, and leaders to make The Serenity Circle private membership experience even more transformative.

I'm passionate about helping families get healthy and strong in mind, body, and spirit because I truly believe, only by healing ourselves can we contribute meaningfully to resolving the addiction and mental health crisis affecting our world today.

Together we can turn pain into purpose, isolation into connection, and fear into courage. I can’t wait to welcome you into the community!

What Our Client's Have to Say ....

"Self-care and strength to survive come exploding through. Like Yoda, Tammy delivers words of wisdom and courage"

~Jill W. Forever Grateful Student

"I've enjoyed online yoga class with Karen. She is meditative and gets us in tune with our bodies and spirit. Her class is wonderful for centering us for the day. The stretches help us expand our versatility, and the energy she creates stays with us and gives us a positive mental attitude. What a way to begin the day. I highly recommend Karen's yoga class as a gift to yourself.”

~I.K - Westchester, NY

“Cindy Vallone goes above and beyond. She’s an expert in her field and always has time to answer questions and share information about my health concerns. She’s generous with her time and always teaches me something new. I highly recommend scheduling your 30-minute Wellness Consult – you’ll learn so much in such a short time!”

"Morgane gifted me a coaching session to uncover blocks and heal wounded parts of myself. From the moment we started, she was invested in me. She patiently listened and only interjected when she felt it necessary. This made me feel seen and heard. She was kind and allowed for the conversation to direct or redirect itself naturally. Morgane offered intuitive advice and possessed the rare ability to speak to me in a way I could deeply understand; she always seemed to know exactly what to say. Morgane is a true healer. But it was also like spending time with an old friend who just simply…cared. The childhood trauma portion was so dynamic. I ended up finding the root of my distress with her gentle prompting and found relief in shifting some aspects of that pain. Morgane has a wealth of knowledge, plus a warm personality, and a giving heart. I recommend her without hesitation."

“I’ve known Maura to be empathic from a very young age. Her wisdom and guidance have helped me tremendously on my spiritual journey.”

I loved this program. I knew I liked sugar a lot, so I joined. Honestly, I figured I’d lose a little weight and get some healthy recipes. What I got was so much more. The program was easy to follow. It has suggested meal plan and a list of foods fir me to make my own meals. I thought the first 10 days would be extremely difficult, maybe even impossible for me, but Coach Kerri provided so many tips, tricks, and delicious detox juice recipes.

What really helped me stick with the program was the educational aspect of the program. Why I was craving sugar and what foods were contributing to that. Some reasons were obvious like stress for example, but some were not so obvious to me, like coffee on an empty stomach and sleep. I formed new daily habits that were just food related, directly anyways, like journaling, daily affirmations, new vitamins, and self-care regimens that were just working out. These have helped me to stop obsessing about food, sugar, and even my weight.

The group meetings were extremely helpful. Not only did I get great ideas from coach Kerri and the other group members, but it helped me continue doing these new habits I was creating by being accountable and showing up.

Going in I thought if this is a never having sugar again program, I will fail. But the program was designed for me to succeed. On day one coach Kerri said the magical words “Progress over perfect!” If I want the treat, have the treat. The best part is… I don’t crave sugar like I use to because I learned the right foods at the right time keep my blood sugar level from spiking and dropping. I feel more energetic, my skin looks better, and my clothes feel better and it’s all a direct result of this program.

~ Amy C.

“I had been experiencing such bad anxiety, but ever since doing Alicia’s meditation I have been at such peace. I was having heart issues, and got some terrifying news from a technician. I met with Alicia for a support call, during which she taught me the meditation for self-healing and taught me some techniques that I immediately began implementing and practiced daily. When I went for a follow-up with the cardiologist a few days later, I received all EXCELLENT results. I was so shocked! My heart was normal and healthy.

I have no idea what changed from what the tech saw on Wednesday till seeing the cardiologist a few days later. But Alicia, SHE and her techniques made such a difference, along with leaning on my faith. I feel like I’ve been given a 2nd chance in life and I’m so excited and determined to conquer this paralyzing anxiety.

Alicia just does amazing work! She’s so calming, soothing, inviting and warm and her techniques are amazing. I can’t recommend her enough! I definitely, highly recommend Alicia for any type of anxiety, trauma, stress, overwhelm, and healing. Ever since our support phone calls and learning the meditation and practicing the techniques that she shared with me, I’ve just been at peace! Thank you so much Alicia!”

I came across Kim’s Gut Health Program just at the right time as I was struggling with stress and bloating. From the moment I joined the program, I knew I had made the right decision. It was such a pleasure having Kim Rendon as my coach! She provided exceptional support and guidance where I felt comfortable with her to share my problems.

The 8-week Gut RejuveLife journey was filled with invaluable knowledge and practical tools that I incorporated into my daily routine. Each week's module was thoughtfully designed, covering various aspects of gut health, including nutrition, lifestyle, stress management, and mindful eating. The program didn't just focus on symptom relief but aimed to understand and address the root causes of my gut issues. I learned how to make healthier food choices and how certain foods can either trigger or alleviate my digestive symptoms.

The recipes and meal plans provided were not only delicious but also easy to follow, making the transition to a gut-friendly diet seamless. I always looked forward to the sessions with Kim as she was very flexible and understanding of my needs.

As the weeks passed, I began to notice remarkable improvements in my gut health. Bloating improved significantly & my energy levels soared. It felt like a fog had lifted, and I was experiencing life with newfound clarity and vitality. The Gut RejuveLife Program not only provided tangible results but also empowered me with knowledge and tools to sustain my improved gut health in the long term. I now feel equipped to make informed decisions about my diet and lifestyle, ensuring that my gut remains healthy and happy.

"Working with Megan let me know I COULD do Yoga with ease with the right teacher. She helps you land in the poses like nothing I've experienced which gave me the confidence to keep showing up. And because of that she's helped me be the strongest version of me possible, helped me lose 60 pounds, and live from a place of confidence and trust in ME!"

Denise is a gifted shaman who is able to activate new realities and open doors through her work. I've personally been part of many of her guided meditations and have left every single one with a deeper knowing, connection to spirit and an incredible sense of peace and elevation each and every time. So grateful for Denise’s guidance and ability to see how spirit is always working in my favor and for my highest good! Highly recommend working with Denise. She is the real deal!

Heather creates a coaching environment where I feel supported and safe to just be myself as I explore areas where I feel stuck. She brings a strong intuition and a genuinely inquisitive nature which always results in experiencing shifts. I am feeling much more confident about launching my own business as a result of the work we have been doing together. I highly recommend Heather!

~SC.

I highly recommend JoAnn Boyce and her grief program. She explained how my grief was affecting me physically, emotionally, cognitively, and spiritually. She then taught me the tools to handle and deal with all of these symptoms of grief. As I worked through her program, I was able to sleep better, handle the waves of grief as they hit, and begin working on how to rebuild my life without my loved one. JoAnn is so supportive and understanding. She just "gets it" when it comes to how hard it is to function and deal with devastating loss.

~Penny Z.

As someone very familiar with energy work and the healing journey, I am extremely particular and aware of powerful, authentic, and truly compassionate, experienced healers who I choose to work with. Glendy IS ALL of those. Not only does she know her capacities and has an incredible knowledge of energy, Glendy provides a service from true love, passion, and caring. From Glendy you get a sense that she is sensitive to your results, strives to give you Everything you need, is intuitively connected to what you need, and gives of her time selflessly and generously.

· Just wanted to give a quick shoutout to Dawn Skrobat Heywood! I’ve been in her chair yoga program for a few weeks now. I’m a bit older and my mobility isn’t great after 40 years of sitting at a computer for 10-12 hours per day. So I appreciate that she offers chair yoga and standing yoga options for people like me who are not able to do traditional yoga poses. Every little bit helps and the sessions are short enough to fit into my busy day!

~Adrian G.

I'm truly amazed by the power of such a session with Deb Phelps and the profound healing that can arise when one's vulnerability is witnessed. Following our session, I experienced a profound sense of release and renewal. As the days went by, I continued to feel great and found myself enveloped in a deep sense of trust.

~Client

"I'm a high-capacity human being but when I crumble I need someone who does not try to fix me and instead assures me that where I am at is exactly where I need to be and helps me restructure again and seeking ways to bring better balance. I love you Kenzie Snyderman I'm so glad our souls chose each other to be connected in this lifetime."

-~Samantha Norman, founder of Become Your Own Healer

"Kaitlin Bullock is an excellent yoga teacher that brings a level of calm that cannot be taught. It is truly a rejuvenating experience being in one of her classes. "

"Joanne Laguana is an amazing empath who works on all aspects of me. Physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. I recommend her to all who need time to focus on their healing. I left feeling clear and focused. I felt like I was able to surrender what wasn't mine and focus on healing me. She's a healer's healer."

- Deanne L.

"From what I know of Colleen she combines many years of experience with her beautiful caring heart to her practice as a recovery coach. She knows the in’s and out’s of personal and family dynamics that contribute to successful completion of treatment and ongoing sobriety. She’s walked the walk.

~Kay Vogt | Psy.D.

She’s generous with her time and always teaches me something new. I highly recommend scheduling your 30-minute Wellness Consult – you’ll learn so much in such a short time!”

“Deb James You are so calm and knowledgeable. It feels as though you are sitting there with your viewer one on one, holding their hand, and guiding them. Your presence and expertise is exactly what people need!”
