So what’s included in Breath & Balm?

We start with the Tired Test, a quick check-in to assess your rest patterns, and a debrief on why learning to listen to your whole-self cues is worth your worth. (Assessment + Mindset Shift Value: $35) 

Your workbook lays out the two-prong approach to healing weary minds holistically: breath is our awareness or internal work, and balm is environmental or external support. Then, we cover 5 days of simple strategies you can layer like blankets for mental calm. Each day’s short concept is followed by a basic practice and pro-tip for easy implementation. You can read and try it daily in about 30 minutes or less. (Workbook Value: $55).

FAQs

What do I get in Breath & Balm?

Breath & Balm includes a guided workbook, coaching videos, and annotated shortlist with clickable links for those who want more resources, plus a Spotify playlist to set the mood.

How does this really help me?

Breath & Balm teaches concepts and practices for peace that benefit you immediately. Each day for 5 days, you’ll learn one mindset and tool for holistic self-care that you can implement easily. You can layer the practices like blankets, Day 1 the first thing, Day 2 the first and second thing, and so on. And they’re so simple, you can keep at it every day if you like, forming habitual and long-term rhythms of rest.

What if I have no time? Is Breath and Balm for me? 

Breath & Balm is designed to be completed in 5 short days. Each daily lesson takes about 30 minutes to complete. It’s perfect for moms or working women (or someone who’s both!) to fit into a busy day. And if you just want first aid for a specific stress or sleep issue, pick any one of the strategies to use regularly. You’ll still see benefit.

Will the 5-day Guide work for me if I can’t afford any extra tools?

All of practices are designed to be sustainable and include knowledge you can implement without buying anything else.

Is this for women only?

All gender identities are welcome here. If you try it out, would you tell me what you think? You are my first round of students and I need your feedback to make it better!

How will I keep my kids/work/life busy long enough to do the daily practice? 

Most of the practices can be completed in 15 minutes or less. For the longer ones on Day 3, I give you tips in the video for what I do to make it a family affair. And if your fatigue warrants longer chunks to rest, ask a partner, friend, co-worker or show to give you a break. You’ll have more patience when you come back to them if you develop patience with yourself.

Is this just a personal retreat? Can I do this with a friend or connect with a community?

Breath & Balm was designed during the isolating circumstances of COVID-19. This is my trial run and I don’t have a community forum set up yet. But if it goes well and you help me spread the word, I’d like to make a more interactive experience down the road! In the meantime, it’s awesome if you want to share your practice with a friend. The best way to master something is to teach someone else 🙂 I just ask that you direct them here for the full experience instead of sending them copyright material.
