Stress, Anxiety & Reclaiming Your Power

In this event you'll learn more about anxiety, your nervous system, the fears that keep your anxiety cycle going, and ways to reclaim a sense of power and inner peace.
This speaking event combines education, mindfulness and practical psychotherapy skills to help you relate to yourself in a deeper, more curious, and more compassionate way. You'll learn how to welcome all of your parts-of-self to the table, how to get to know what each part of you needs in order to feel secure, and how to become a kind and effective leader for your own internal system.
