If you’re curious about therapy but have these ideas or stereotypes about it, please know you’re not alone

we are programmed to fear the unknown and vulnerability is extremely difficult
especially in a time where it feels like everyone is showing their best selves and their rise to the “top”

but what if…none of it were true

your thoughts, your hesitation….they’re there to protect you
but they can also keep you stuck
keep you small

my approach is grounded and client centred
you lead

we can talk, but I also focus on integrating a more holistic approach
blending somatic and body-based ways to help you get out of your head
and slow down enough to feel more comfortable and confident in yourself and your body

When we connect with ourselves, that ripples into every part of our lives
our work, our relationships, the way we move through the world

But our relationship with ourselves is often the one that comes last

This experience was created as a space to come back to that

To meet every part of yourself with a little more awareness, and a little more grace

We’ll spend the afternoon together weaving somatic movement, mindful reflection, and gentle conversation in a small, intentional group

A therapeutic, guided space to slow down and tend to yourself

Spaces are limited

All of you is welcome 🤍

Have you started to get curious about wellness or wellbeing and are entering into it all and feeling…like it’s a bit unrelatable?

Just breathe, they say…

Just breathe while you’re overloaded with work, roles and responsibilities, commitments, expectations, relationships and the never ending to do lists and busy day to day life

I remember when I first started down this path of healing, remembering, embodying and connecting with myself

I was so quick to try everything
the sauna. the cold plunges. the red light. the yoga. the retreats

and yes it’s all very nice
but it can also feel overwhelming (not to mention hella expensive lol)
and then sometimes we start treating our relaxation like another to do list or something we need to get right

like we’re doing wellness wrong

but the most simple and underrated tool is already within us
right here right now you have your breath

so if you’re feeling stuck
or like you’re not doing your healing right

just breathe

it’s going to be ok I promise 🤎

If you’ve had a busy week, or feel like you’re always “on,”

this is a space to come down, reset, and head into your weekend feeling more grounded and back home to yourself

no pressure, nothing to figure out
just gentle movement, breath, and a chance to actually land 🤎

Just a little glimpse of what the last nervous system nourishment event looked like, for anyone that’s curious 😉

03/18/2026

Calm & Connect is becoming a monthly gathering I’ll be offering through North Star Wellness.

It’s a space to slow down, settle the nervous system, and reconnect with yourself in a supportive group setting. We move through gentle yoga, meditation, reflection and quiet connection together.

Each month will have a slightly different focus.

For April, we’ll be leaning into renewal and planting seeds as we move into spring. A soft place to pause, breathe, and notice what might be ready for a little more care and attention in your life.

$5 off for anyone who attended a previous event or who are helpers in the community (social workers, nurses, teachers etc.)

If you’d like to join, you can DM me or email me to register.

Last nights Calm and Connect theme was about noticing….what is present: mind, body, spirit, heart. Using the medicine wheel concept of division within the whole…..when we can stop for a minute to tap into each part of ourselves, zoom out to see the whole picture and to do it in circle, in community….a special alchemy happens. Hope that this practice helps to bring some balance ❤️
