“I’ve spent most of my life figuring out what everyone else needs and wants before asking myself what I need and want. The class helped me recognize my own signals and set firm but gentle boundaries without feeling guilty or unsure of myself.”

“Being self-sufficient and taking care of business is something that got me far in life, until it didn’t. I wasn’t interacting with people in a way that allowed ME to receive, or THEM to achieve. It was humbling, but I learned to recognize when I was getting in the way. I began to see that over-extension was a conditioned habit and that I could learn new ones that made life sweeter and easier.”

“I started this at a time when I questioned everything- my marriage, my choices, my sanity. I was so depleted and could not see a path forward. I still don’t have all the answers, but I know how to connect with my body and it’s wisdom and resource myself and go from there.”

“I used to think resilience meant staying calm and handling everything thrown at me with grit. Now I understand it as being able to lose my footing and find it again. That feels much more human and possible. And less likely to wear down my immune system again.”

“Every headline, legislative change, or fear of what could happen next was hijacking my nervous system. I took this class to be able to maintain better perspective and feel less crazy more of the time. What I got from it was so much more than that.”
