Welcome! 

WELCOME! My name is Colette and I’m so glad you’re carving some time out of your busy schedule to reset and refresh with 5 days of Mindfulness. If you’re anxious, exhausted or both, and looking for relief, you’re in the right place.

 

I have been practicing mindfulness for over 30 years and absolutely love sharing mindfulness practice with others (especially busy people living real lives), and I can't wait to share with you!

5 Practices to Reclaim Balance and Ease

Today:

Lay the groundwork with an understanding of mindfulness and a brief meditation to reveal insights into your mental, physical and emotional landscape.

 

Day 1: The Cost of Caring 

The research confirms what your heart already knows: when you’re well, your clients have a better chance to heal. Take this as a gentle reminder—your needs matter. Taking care of yourself is part of taking care of them.

 

Day 2: What IS Mindfulness Really? 

One of the greatest gifts you offer your clients is the gift of your full presence and attunement.

By developing your ability to stay grounded, present and open, Mindfulness Practice cultivates that full presence and attunement,  so that you can hold a steady, responsive, compassionate space with greater ease and less stress, even during the most challenging sessions.

 

Day 3: The Body Keeps the Score 

As a therapist, you attune to others daily and know that your body often registers and signals stress before the mind has a chance to catch up. 

But how often do you truly tune in to your own body's messages?

 

Day 4: Compassion Without Collapse

Self-compassion is essential. It’s what replenishes your capacity to be present, steady, and caring with your clients. When you acknowledge your limits and pain with kindness, you strengthen the foundation from which true compassion can flow.

 

Day 5: Integration and Application

Nobody practices mindfulness to get better at sitting alone on a cushion. You do it to feel better, be more effective and have a deeper, more meaningful experience of life.

Why Practice Mindfulness? 

​​

So, what is mindfulness exactly? Mindfulness is paying attention, on purpose, to the present moment, exactly as it is with kindness and compassion.

​

Most of us move through our days on autopilot, with our thoughts and feelings shaped more by unseen desires and fears than by conscious choice. 

 

Mindfulness is a way to unveil the hidden lens through which you perceive life. This lens colors the relationship between what’s happening around you and how you respond internally. 

 

It’s not complicated, but it is challenging. 

 

Why? Because our brains aren’t naturally inclined toward this level of self-awareness. We’re wired to make judgments, tell stories, ponder the past, worry about the future, and resist anything uncomfortable. 

 

It’s an ongoing, life-long practice that enriches and heals with each passing day.
