S.l.o.w presence

inner critic to inner nurturer

what?

most of us live with an inner critic that often hinders our life experiences. This workshop offers space for acknowledging, understanding, and responding to the inner critic and slowly transforming it into an inner nurturer.  we’ll practice responding to the inner critic by offering s.l.o.w presence and engaging in contemplative somatic practices, dedicated rituals, meditation, and group work. 

By engaging in a s.l.o.w presence framework, you will

  • understand who is the inner critic, and how to work with its intentions. 

  • create an embodied katha (narrative/story) to a healthy vision of the inner critic- a nurturer
