Coming Home: Finding Stillness and Strength During Times of Struggle
There is SO MUCH happening in the world. Taking time to quiet the noise, hear our own voice and connect with our bodies is so important. I hope you’ll join me for this virtual class. In our time together we will unpack the current whirlwind of crisis and change. We will discuss and practice simple and effective tools for grounding and connecting with your innate wisdom. This can help us grow our strength and be more available to ourselves and each other.
Join for one workshop or all three! Each workshop is one hour, plus 15 minutes at the end for Q&A.

– Unpacking crisis and change
– Home — more than a place…it’s a feeling.
In this workshop we will discuss different reactions to crisis, deepen understanding of how crisis can trigger intense reactions and how to deal with those reactions. We will discuss the ordinary, everyday self versus the dreamy self and the benefits of connecting with our dreamy self. We will talk about what it means to feel “at home” and practice simple techniques to create room for pause and awareness in the midst of chaos. You will leave with tools to help you expand or create your own practice.

In this workshop we will take a closer look at what mercy means and how to practice inner mercy in a world that makes little to no room for it. You will learn and practice a simple tool to check in with yourself and build a safe place for you to notice and care for yourself more deeply. This will help you grow the capacity to be a greater resource and presence to yourself and others. It will also help create a grounded space in a constantly changing environment.
