Welcome to the age of chronic overwhelm.

You know how it goes. 

A thousand and two unread emails, a million and one tasks unchecked, a gazillion and a half *really important* phone calls to be made, a bamboozle of self-help books stuffed under your bed, and one big dust bunny piling up high in the bathroom corner, collecting flies and karma alike. 

Sigh.

This is the age of never-enough, go-go-go, always more to do/learn/become/fix/improve upon.  And right alongside, we have the age of never-enough-time-to-respond.

As a result, so many of us feel beaten down by our busy-bee lives, left to catch our breath in the margins of our lives, without hope for peace, sanity, or a frickin’ nap on the horizon.

Sound familiar?

You’re so (so) not alone.

We’re Jeena and Marina – two attorneys who have chosen, stumbled upon, wildly fallen off, and recommitted to the path of radical self-care.  We’ve learned a thing or two in the process, and are committed to sharing the tools and practices that have changed our lives.

And we'll share 5 powerful practices from Nonviolent Communication, mindfulness, and meditation to help us break the cycle, and re-establish the breath, sanity, and self-kindness that we truly need to sustain our full and overflowing lives.

This teleclass will be experiential! 

Come as you are, harried and overwhelmed, or cool and calm alike, and let’s together find ways to tap into your radical self-care and inner calm.  And it won’t be just talk; you’ll leave the class with your own radical self-care plan!
