I’m so excited to be leading a workshop at the Mindful Development Professional Wellness Mini-Retreat: Body, Breath & Bliss

This professional development mini-retreat is organized by Kileen Gilroy, founder and executive director of Mindful Development, a non-profit that provides meaningful professional development opportunities that integrate holistic leadership, mindful modalities, and promote the social and emotional health of individuals and organizations.

My workshop at the retreat will focus on what your BREATH has to do with your nervous system and the way your body and mind process stress. I’ll be teaching a couple of my favorite simple breathwork practices, including a short Somatic Breathwork practice that you can do every day to feel more calm, focused, and energized!
