Wellness Workshops & Groups for Mindful Living and Sustainable Change
Explore groups and workshops in person in Richmond, VA, and online.
How Can These Groups and Wellness Workshops Support You?
Personal growth can sometimes feel isolating, especially if your loved ones don’t fully understand your journey or why you’re making life changes. There can even be a unique kind of grief that comes up when you start breaking out of patterns that no longer serve you, while those around you may not even recognize they’re still caught in them.
I developed these groups to offer a shared space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. A place where you can show up exactly as you are, and be met with compassion and understanding, from a community of likeminded people.
Each group offers a space to slow down, receive support, and explore a guided path to enhance mindful living.
I hope to see you soon!
In-Person Mindfulness Experiences in Richmond, VA
Connect with yourself and others through mindfulness activities, meditation, and nature experiences. All experience levels are welcome and supported.
From Knowing to Being to Doing: Workshop at the Innerwork Center
In this workshop, I’ll guide you in a process of deepening mind-body awareness to explore what’s really getting in your way of making your life what you want it to be.
We’ll then use mindfulness-based self-regulation strategies and self-reflective journaling to work with limiting beliefs, emotional discomfort, and reactivity.
The session will close with a guided meditation to empower you to take intentional, grounded, and aligned action.
Grounded in Nature
Nature is the perfect example of mindfulness… everything is just as it is, from moment to moment.
In this guided mindfulness experience, we’ll emulate nature as we walk through the park and embrace everything each moment has to offer.
We’ll then come to a space to pause, and you can choose to stand, sit, or lay down as I guide you in a gentle breathing exercise to reduce stress, and a mindfulness meditation to deepen presence, self-connection, and inner peace.
Grounded Conversations
Every moment is an opportunity for mindful awareness, emotional balance, and intentional living in alignment with your values.
Twice a month, we’ll connect to discuss how to stay more present in a world that teaches us not to, while living in a body that’s wired to use the past to predict the future.
I’ll be your mindfulness guide as we explore the layers, ironies, stressors, and joys of life… and everything in between.
Community is an invaluable resource that grounds us as we grow. Join the Meetup group, Grounded & Growing, to stay connected and be the first to know about new offerings & experiences.

Group coaching gives you the opportunity to connect and grow alongside others.

Do I need to do anything to prepare for an online group session?
I encourage all participants to ensure you’ll have a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be interrupted for the duration of the group. Other than that, all you need is an open mind, a willingness to participate, and a commitment to being respectful of others in the group. For some sessions, you may want to bring a notebook or journal to write down any insights or things you want to remember, but this is not required.
Why are some session durations listed as "up to" a fixed length?
Session durations can vary depending on the depth of discussion, level of participation, and the unique needs of the group.
I recommend setting aside the full time, but it’s possible there may be times when we’ll finish earlier if we reach a natural stopping point and everyone feels they’ve gotten everything they needed from the session. This flexibility allows me to ensure each session is meaningful and tailored to the group’s experience in the moment.
Can I join the meditation or breathwork groups if I've never practiced before?
Of course! I will check in with the group in the beginning of each session to get a sense of everyone’s experience level, and I’ll provide guidance so everyone is feeling comfortable before we start our practice together. If you have any questions before booking, you can always set up a free call to discuss if these groups feel right for you.
Do I need to turn my camera or audio on during online groups?
I encourage everyone to participate to the extent that feels comfortable to them. If for any reason you don’t want to turn on your audio or video, but you still want to listen or engage in the guided practices, that’s totally ok!
What’s your cancellation or rescheduling policy?
Full refunds are available if you inform me you won’t be able to make it to the group at least 24 hours in advance. No-shows, as well as any cancellation requests made less than 24 hours before the group is scheduled to begin are non-refundable.
