There are stories we consciously tell ourselves — and then there are the quieter ones.
The ones held in our posture. The ones whispered through tension, breath, and sensation. The ones that shape how we see ourselves, how we interpret life, and how we move forward.
As we enter a new season, many of us feel the pull to reflect, reset, and realign. Yet true change rarely comes from force or fixing. It arises from awareness — from learning how to listen beneath the surface and giving ourselves permission to soften long‑held patterns.
This February 25th at 4 pm Atlantic, we are offering a new 90‑minute experiential workshop designed to do exactly that.
Where Body Awareness Meets Conscious Reflection
The Stories We Tell Ourselves is a live, online experiential workshop that gently explores the relationship between posture, inner narrative, energy, and conscious journaling. It is an invitation to slow down, listen inwardly, and reconnect with the wisdom already present within the body.
The stories we tell ourselves are not only mental constructs. They are shaped by lived experiences, emotional responses, and the ways our nervous system has learned to protect us. Over time, these stories become embodied — expressed through posture, movement habits, breath patterns, and energetic holding.
By bringing awareness to the body and offering intentional journaling prompts, we create a bridge between sensation and insight, between what we feel and how we interpret it.
Why Journaling With the Right Focus Matters
Journaling can be a powerful tool for mental health, clarity, and integration — but only when it is approached with the right intention.
This workshop does not use journaling as analysis or problem‑solving. Instead, it offers guided, compassionate prompts that:
- Support emotional regulation and nervous system ease
- Encourage curiosity rather than judgment
- Create space for insight without forcing outcomes
- Help participants notice and gently re‑author inner narratives
When journaling is paired with body awareness and gentle movement, it becomes a form of listening rather than doing. This combination allows new perspectives to emerge naturally — often revealing what we are ready to release, rewrite, or carry forward with greater harmony.
An Experiential Journey of Awareness and Choice
During this 90‑minute experience, participants are guided through a carefully held flow that supports both grounding and expansion:
- Arriving and grounding practices to create energetic safety and presence
- An Inner Smile meditation to harmonize organ systems and open internal space
- Posture awareness and gentle movement to notice how stress and belief patterns live in the body
- Two guided journaling experiences that invite listening first, then conscious re‑authoring
- Group reflection and integration, offering connection without pressure or spotlighting
A Soul‑Aligned Word is also introduced as a subtle companion throughout the workshop — not something to analyze, but something to notice as awareness deepens.
This approach supports participants in reclaiming authorship over their inner experience — not by changing who they are, but by softening the lens through which they see themselves.
Supporting Mental Health Through Embodied Awareness
Mental health is not just about what we think — it is deeply connected to how safe, supported, and present we feel in our bodies.
By integrating breath, posture awareness, movement, and reflective writing, this workshop helps participants:
- Feel more grounded and regulated
- Increase self‑compassion and emotional awareness
- Recognize unconscious stories that influence perception
- Develop practical tools for ongoing self‑care
The result is not a dramatic overhaul, but a gentle recalibration — one that supports clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of choice.

- A live 90‑minute experiential workshop

A Space to Listen, Not Fix
This workshop is not about forcing change or fixing what feels uncomfortable.
It is about:
- Listening beneath habitual stories
- Softening held tension
- Bringing harmony to body, mind, and energy
- Choosing what you are ready to carry forward
If you are feeling called to reconnect with your inner voice, support your mental health through embodied awareness, or explore journaling as a compassionate and empowering practice, this experience offers a gentle place to begin.
Awareness is the doorway.
The body holds the wisdom.
The story can change.
