*NEXT GROUP STARTS OCTOBER 24, 2022*, perfect to get you through the holiday season
We all have some type of anxiety throughout life. For some, it's manageable and doesn't impact every day life. However, for many, it does. The pandemic and all events of the last two years have given our brains and bodies more reasons to react with anxiety, to protect us. Anxiety has increased greatly during this time for people and it is understandable.
It is certainly difficult to put yourself first when things feel chaotic but it is also imperative for yourself, your loved ones and your community. When each of us is able to use our anxiety in useful ways, to go deep within and to be STILL, we are able to show up better in all areas of our lives.

1 out of 5 people have a diagnosed anxiety disorder. BUT, the number of people who experience anxiety is MUCH higher as many do not ever seek support and many others don’t even realize they have it or it’s not disruptive to their life enough to warrant professional medical help.
Anxiety isn’t just panic attacks and PTSD. Anxiety is our body’s natural way of alerting us to fear, whether actual danger or a trigger of old experiences and traumas being reactivated. Anxiety is a self-protection built into our nervous system and even when it is not from an actual threat, it can be incredibly useful.

Insomnia
Racing thoughts Social anxiety Trouble being fully present in the moment A lot of phone scrolling Self doubt Very active to a point of some obsession. Nervous talking to fill any silence Overthinking Do any of these sound like you? Are you looking for some tools and support? Are you looking to get out of these patterns to live more fully present? Do you want to connect more to the parts of you that worry less and feel more joy in the little and big moments? Do you want to connect with others who resonate with what you experience? |

Join my 7 week support group, Anxiety: A Tool for Empowerment
In this group, you will learn how to become attuned to and have a greater awareness around YOUR anxiety, it’s root causes and how to address it in the moment.
You will also learn how to reduce anxiety over time using regular practices and tools.
You will learn how to use your anxiety instead of seeing it as a burden. Your anxiety, just like any cues and protections your body gives you, is you friend.

But this is not just about anxiety.
You will gain a deeper connection to your body. You will feel more empowered, more at ease, and more prepared for this messy thing called life. You will feel more free within and without. This program is meant to be supportive with loving accountability, digestible and manageable so as not to add to your overwhelm. We do not use a "one size fits all" approach. I instead offer a variety of tools and techniques so you can find the ones that you resonate with, while also giving you a space in a nurturing community. |
