Greetings, I am Yakima Palmer. I have a degree in (Master of Science in Nonprofit Management) MSNM, RHIA, CPC and the founder of Yaks Wellness, a provider of holistic consulting services, and retail products.  I hold a certification as a Cannabis Educator, a Certified Wellness Coach as well as teaching as a Healthcare Professor in an educational environment. I also serve as an appointed member of the Medical Advisory Board for Wakanna. 

Spending over 25 years working in a variety of medical, counseling and outpatient settings has shown me the need for holistic solutions and natural methods to bring about a lasting lifestyle change. 

 Like many others, I too suffer from chronic pain, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. My oldest son was killed in 2013 and I began to use cannabis more recreationally to help me deal with stress and anxiety. As time went on, I realized how much cannabis helped to bring order and smooth the rough corners of my life. I then became a legal patient in February 2022.

Eating plant-based foods along with daily exercise has allowed me to alleviate pain, anxiety, insomnia, and PTSD. This is how I maintain and restore balance to LIVE LIFE to the Fullest.
