About 2.5–3 hours per week of scheduled group time on average
Free days in between with simple, optional self-guided prompts (5–10 minutes or less)
Midweek virtual check-ins at midday on Zoom for anyone who can't always make it in person

Closing Ceremony & Celebration
Where: To be confirmed
Time: To be confirmed
We close the program together as a cohort and celebrate everything you've built over the past four weeks.
Sessions are a mix of:
In-person group gatherings (movement, workshops, shared meals)
Virtual lunchtime check-ins for quick connection during the week
Self-guided free days with light prompts — no homework, just small invitations to reset
Just the basics for every session: a water bottle, an open mind (and a notebook if you like to jot things down), and comfortable clothing. A few sessions — like the yoga classes and group workout — call for a mat, towel, or workout gear, which we'll flag ahead of time.

Nourishing Fuel — Design nutrition guidance that supports metabolic health, energy, and digestion while honoring your tastes and lifestyle.
Intentional Connection — Strengthen relationships and social supports through communication tools, boundary-setting, and community-building practices.

Environment — Optimize the places you spend time (home, workplace, or elsewhere) for safety, comfort, productivity, and restorative energy.
Stress Mitigation — Learn tailored techniques (breathwork, movement, cognitive strategies, scheduling changes) to lower chronic stress and improve resilience.
True Purpose, Meaning, and Spirituality — Explore values, life direction, and spiritual practices that foster fulfillment and a coherent sense of self.
