Welcome your Place to Breathe.

manage stress through mindfulness

Create a refuge, for yourself. no matter the circumstance

mindfulness, Movement, and Breathwork programs supporting
the discovery of self, creating opportunities for easeful living.

I work with individuals and small businesses to teach a skill to help you navigate life with more ease. This practice brings focus, improves sleep and offers support when we are faced with challenge. Opening and gaining resillience through compassion.

“As long as you are breathing, there is more right with you than there is wrong, no matter how ill or how hopeless you may feel.”
- Jon Kabat Zinn

Our Programs

Supported by 40+ years of proven research, Mindfulness Practice gives us the tools to
help manage our reality’s groundlessness and return to this moment. Using care and
compassion to connect with ourselves and each other.

What is Mindfulness?

A secular practice in part through the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn and his Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program. Thousands of studies have documented the physical and mental health benefits of mindfulness.

Benefits include:

Increased ability to cope with stress, anxiety, and the challenges of everyday life
Handle disturbing events with grace and composure
Be fully present and alive in this moment
Develop more focused attention
Relaxation
Positive shifts in mood
Enhanced self-awareness
Improved sleep, health, and well-being
Decreased perception of chronic pain

Program Offerings:

A Place to Breathe has the following programs available to you and your team:

Introduction to Mindfulness half and full day programs
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction 8-week training
Mindfulness in the Workplace
Individual and group retreats
Mindful Movement Practice

MINDFULNESS
The Roadmap to navigate uncertainty.

“Mindfulness is really important in times like this,” says Auguste H. Fortin VI, MD, MPH,
a Yale Medicine internal medicine specialist who has recommended mindfulness practices
to cope with the stresses of COVID-19.

Beautiful day to be at 38k’ See you soon California ❤️ ✈️ . . #retreat #mindfulcare #supporttravel #place2breathe

Mindful presence gives us all the opportunity to hold this moment, just as it is and feel into that beautiful open awareness of this precious life. . #mindfulness #beherenow #lovingkindness

Starting 2021 with some time away welcomed in stillness. Coming back home, which is always lovely - brought back some of the “busy” habits that take me away from the breath and this moment. . This week I have been concentrating on reconnecting with the stillness within. It only takes a few breaths to find that stillness within. Breath awareness, even just 60 a day makes all the difference . #mindfulness #60breaths #stillness #livemindfully #presentmoment

January 27th starts my 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course. I still have a few slots available. Register with the link in my bio, or dm me with any questions. . #mbsr #mindfulness #stressmanagement #2021

A Blessing for the New Year One the day when The weight deadens And you stumble, May the clay dance To balance you. And when your eyes Freeze behind The gray window And the ghost of loss Gets into you May a flock of colors, Indigo, red, green And azure blue, Come to awaken in you A meadow of delight. When the canvas frays In the curragh of thought And a stain of ocean Blackens beneath you, May there come across the waters A path of yellow moonlight To bring you safely home. May the nourishment of the earth be yours, May the clarity fo the light be yours, May the fluency of the ocean be yours, May the protection of the ancestors be yours. And so may a slow Wind work these words Of love around you, An invisible cloak To mind your life. - John O’Donohue

Intention. - Mindfulness practice reminds that this beautiful precious life is here to open to, even in struggle. In setting heart-full intentions we are opening to inquiry, allowing the opportunity to reinstate what has been, and what is now important to you. - I invite you to look at this coming year and reflect, setting what intentions are meaningful to you. - What am I truly grateful for from 2020? What do I want to invite into this new year? What am I ready to release and leave behind? What matters most to me now? How can I show care and compassion to myself and others each day? Where do I want to grow? To show up? - We are embarking upon a new year - leaving one that was so different from many we have all experienced before. Quarantines, new perspectives, new ways of looking at how we live and showing gratitude for this precious life. - 2020 allowed the opportunity for some to re-evaluate what’s important and commit to a meditation practice. Committing to a mindfulness path is something to be recommitted to each day, each moment. - Cheers to all the blessings and wisdom from this year and all the goodness that will come from the next. - #mindfulness #intention #newbeginnings #inquiry #meditation #growlove #selfcare #wellness

Open, Spacious, Awareness - Ease comes from the moments where we are able to sit in the stillness of what is. Allowing the discomfort, the constriction and accepting that this will change, just as all does in life. . It is when we can be with the struggle just as it is that joy is available. Non-attachment the pain, discomfort, anger. In the very being with it ease is there. . #mindfulness #spaciousawareness #beherenow
