 Unwind, reconnect, and begin the summer from a grounded place in my new 90-minute Body by Breath®-inspired workshop.
**Excited to Announce that we’ll be LIVE on Zoom on May 30, 2026** 1:30-3pm PDT & MST-AZ Replay available for one week (downloadable) What if you could move into summer feeling more rested, calm, and connected? By the end of May, there’s often a shift. Schedules change, routines loosen, and the steady rhythm of the earlier part of the year can start to feel a little less predictable. This workshop is a chance to pause. Join me for 90 minutes to restore your nervous system, reconnect with your body, and create space for the kind of clarity that only comes from slowing down and tuning in. Instead of pushing through or adding one more thing to your plate, I’ll guide you through restoring your nervous system and reconnecting with what your body truly needs. Breathe, unwind, and gently ease the tension that leaves so many of us feeling sore, scattered, or out of sorts. From that calmer place, we’ll explore and clarify one or two grounded intentions you can carry with you into the summer months. Simple, supportive, and genuinely sustainable in your real, everyday life. This is a soft reset. A recalibration. A moment to come home to yourself before summer's momentum picks up. Props needed Coregeous® Ball (That is truly all you need. Cozy clothing, blankets, a little space to move, and a soft place to lie down are helpful too.)

This workshop is for you if you’re craving a softer transition into summer. Maybe you’re feeling a little stiff, a little scattered, or a little over-stimulated as schedules shift and the season changes. You want a reset that feels gentle and real, not one more thing you have to push through. It’s a great fit if you:
