Next, Carrie will guide you through a slow, nurturing movement experience designed to help you connect with your body in a compassionate way.

You’ll be led through:

• A gentle standing Qigong flow to release tension and stress

• Soft, supportive stretches on the floor or in a chair, whatever feels best for your body

• Quiet moments of reflection to listen inward

This practice isn’t about flexibility or performance.
It’s about moving lovingly, tuning into the messages of your body and soul, and practicing self-compassion through mindful presence and care.

No yoga or Qigong experience is needed.

(45 minutes)

Once your body is feeling relaxed and restored, Jen will guide you through a calming mindfulness meditation focused on strengthening your capacity for self-compassion.

This gentle meditation will help you:

• Soften self-judgment

• Deepen inner support

• Anchor into a kinder way of being with yourself

(20 minutes)

We’ll close our time together with a warm and welcoming Tea & Talk.

Enjoy tea, light snacks, and meaningful conversation as we reflect on the experience and explore how you can bring what you’ve discovered into your day-to-day life. This is a space for connection, integration, and gentle support. Self-compassion grows even deeper in community.
