Burnout, Boundaries & Becoming

This four-week live online course is designed to help you reconnect with the joy, passion, and peace that are inherently yours—but can become lost beneath busy schedules, high demands, and the pressure of keeping everyone happy (everyone, ya know, except yourself).

Explore practices such as thought work, meditation, journaling, breathwork, and somatic movement to help you shed layers of busyness and depletion, so that you can open to becoming who you are meant to be. 

Dates: Wednesdays, October 21 & 28 and November 4 & 11
Time: 5:30–6:30 PM Central
Location: Your couch, your yard, your bathroom... wherever you want to join us on Zoom!
Investment: $99 — includes all four live classes, recordings, and a private WhatsApp community chat.

Course outline and details:

Week 1: Reconnecting to YOU
Explore burnout and the role boundaries play in overwhelm and depletion. Through practice and play, begin relearning your body’s unique signals for YES and NO.

Week 2: The Warrior & The Heart
Explore the balance between your masculine and feminine energies, and how your inner warrior can be in service of your heart. Connect your boundaries to your desires, needs, passions, and inner truth.

Week 3: Discernment & Inner Guidance
Connect more deeply with yourself by exploring your values, and learn somatic practices to help you hear and trust yourself more clearly while staying grounded, rooted, and calm.

Week 4: Compassionate Boundaries & Becoming

Somatic Unwinding Classes

Somatic Unwinding is a natural process of the nervous system that allows stress, tension, and trauma held within the freeze response an opportunity to release, returning you to a calm, connected state.

This process can be activated through simple tools I’ll share with you, offering a safe space to release what you no longer need to carry and open to the version of yourself—and life—you’re ready to step into.

 
 

Transformative Breathwork Classes

Transformative Breathwork uses intentional breathing patterns to help release stress and emotion, allow Unwinding, and create space for greater clarity, connection, and ease.

This class is designed to help you release what is holding you back, so you can move forward with more freedom and clarity.


Somatic Freeform Movement

Blending elements of qi-gong, Kundalini yoga, somatic practices, and freeform dance, this experience is designed to help the body release stress, tension and emotion.

You'll be guided through simple movement practices set to immersive, rhythmic music before gradually transitioning into more intuitive movement and Unwinding. Some people sway, stretch, dance, laugh, cry, or fully Unwind - all is welcome here.


“Signing up for the Unwinding Workshop with Julie, has been one of the best decisions I have made!  Her expert knowledge in somatic bodywork coupled with her gentle spirit, provided an incredible, safe experience for me.  I have been amazed at how my body is able to release tension and stress. ”
