Eugénie Pabst

An advocate of holistic health in Chicago, Eugénie Pabst entreated us to a quick visit inside her River North co-op. A Psy.D. biofeedback specialist with a private practice at Balance Health + Wellness, Eugénie is dedicated to wellness, health and beauty. Regularly seen in dresses pulled from the Pabst trove of precious designer vintage, she’s an avid yogi and supporter of the full range of Chicago cultural institutions along with the non-profit Global Colors, a group empowering grassroots organizations to accomplish specific goals by providing a kick-start of support for projects that are ultimately self-sustaining. It was great to see Eugénie in her home, an oasis of beauty and calm; here, we connect the dots between Eugénie and the Pabst women who came before her.
