This workshop is designed to empower you with simple tools to regulate your body and stay connected to self in your daily lives.
Create space for Yourself, your inner peace and joy. Reconnect with your body, learn its wisdom and how to be in your full potential in 2026 and beyond. We will focus on somatic tools and practices that help come back to self, rest, reset, rediscover the inner guidance and create a path forward filled with you, ease and grace.
Tools and techniques you will learn include:
Basics: Learn mind-body tools to help you increase your capacity to bring your attention back to you - your body, your needs and intentions, even in the midst of competing priorities from work and personal life. Learn a simple daily self-care practice that you can do on the go (subway, uber, making breakfast). Reconnect to your inner voice and rediscover your inner peace, wisdom and joy
Nervous system regulation: Regulate your nervous system and learn tools to sustain it back at home. Understand burnout and discover simple, body-based techniques to prevent it. Discover how to use Polyvagal Theory to self-regulate in stressful situations. Explore how to find space for Yourself in a busy life
Embodied boundaries: Explore new, embodied, ways to set up boundaries with others and within yourself. Learn techniques to track it as you come back to work
Rebalancing: explore and rebalance your inner feminine and masculine, doing and resting, giving and receiving. Learn how to balance the polarities in daily life. (Re-)learn how to rest and how to receive more and push less
Thought patterns release: identify and let go of negative thought patterns through somatic trauma informed exercises. Increase awareness and start releasing patterns that may lead you to burnout, increased stress, anxiety or over giving
Dreaming and redesign: Create a 2026 vision for wholeness, thriving and joy. Use a ritual to support you in these intentions and anchor some of the practices
Make friends for life - Connect to a community of deep, wise, fun-loving women
Training is one third cognitive and two thirds experiential.
Each topic is introduced, experienced through guided exercises, and then discussed to help you understand, integrate, and apply what you are learning to daily life.

She designed “Back to Self” to share with others the most effective tools from some of the worlds’ best teachers. ”This is the program I wished I had years ago, when I was running on fumes, and my body said no. Since then, I completely redesigned - and absolutely LOVE - my life. Our programs will help you stay connected to YOU and thrive.”
