Mindful Explorers
Slow down… Gain awareness… Create change…
Our attention is dominated by the external world. We are always “on-the-go,” taking care of responsibilities and checking things off our to-do lists. And even in leisure, the external world continues to bombard us with irresistible options – social media, streaming platforms, online shopping, viral trends. It is only for the briefest of moments that it is quiet enough to hear the call from our internal worlds. Perhaps lying in bed at night, we notice swirling thoughts or an uneasy feeling in our gut. These feelings can be mysterious and uncomfortable, so we attempt to turn away and ignore them.
It wasn’t always this way. As children many of us knew how to inhabit our internal world through our rich imaginations, curiosity, and openness. It was a place filled with possibility and wonder. But over the ensuing years as we “grew up,” we learned to stash away painful memories or fears and begin to avoid this shadowed world. We lost the ability to mine its gems of wisdom and instead loathed the intrusion of distressing feelings like anxiety or depression.
In our work together, you will develop the skills to harness the power of your mind and body to safely reclaim this space. It is possible to heal past wounds and shift outdated beliefs. Tapping into the guidance of emotions, you can reconnect with yourself and others. Imagine feeling joyful again in a world filled with possibility and wonder!

Discover a world of possibilities
It takes courage to answer the call of the internal world but you can do it and you don’t have to do it alone. Call, text, or email me if you are ready to start this adventure.
Doesn’t everything die at last, and too soon? Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
