Course Details
Format, Flow, Timing, and Cost
Classes will be held weekly, on Sundays at 2pm ET, for 90 minutes.
Each class begins with a grounding session to help us become more calm, present, and open. Then, we move into the week's lesson. This time includes presentations, group discussions, experiential exercises, and interactive demonstrations. Finally, we end with a long-form meditation – inclusive of breathwork, visualizations, and somatic practices – to help us connect with, explore, or embody the lesson of the week. Each module includes a guide and journal to support at-home practices, weekly assignments, and deeper self-discovery throughout the course.
A one-on-one session is included with this upcoming course, in addition to the classes, guides, and journals.
