“Reclaiming Joy in Unimaginable Times”

If you or your group have ever felt like Joy was not accessible or that you weren’t ‘resilient’ enough, or ‘good enough’ at feeling better, this session is a unique and inspiring approach to finding a new perspective on finding safety and belonging in a disconnected world. We explore the concept of Joy, how it is different than happiness and toxic positivity, and why it is so crucial to prevent and heal from burnout in our professional and personal lives. We also explore practical strategies to access Joy and the simple and accessible neuroscience of how and why they work. Your group will leave this session inspired and empowered to find a sense of well-being that stands alone from the external hardships of life, while still acknowledging those systems that need to change.

“Why Not Me?”

One simple change—this question as an embodied micro-resistance-to your usual response to challenge and suffering creates a profound cascade of changes, bringing you closer to Joy. Through transformative mind-body medicine, neuroscience, and self-inquiry, we explore this radical shift as a springboard for catalyzing powerful change in the individual and collective. 

Workshop Examples

“Creating a culture of Joy and well-being at work”

An experiential workshop for your organization that goes beyond the usual platitudes of wellness. We explore what it means to be well and access greater Joy and Well-being and then the practical skills of how to do this in a busy workplace. I use my expertise in group facilitation, mind-body medicine, neuroscience and the weaving of powerful story to open the group to the possibility of creating a new culture at work and for themselves.

“How to Access Joy in a Cruel and Unjust World (and Why Dismissing the Hard is Harmful)”

An experiential workshop to help create a culture of well-being in your organization that values authenticity and equity. We explore science-backed and time-honored skills but within a new framework that demonstrates their power while still acknowledging the challenges. For example, we explore the powerful neuroscience of gratitude to debunk myths around this practice and explore how to practically use gratitude in organizations to spark cultural change. I use transformative and inspiring stories, experiential exercises, and accessible neuroscience.
