From our Founder

“By the end of this certification, you’ll not only be able to teach any of our core classes at Pause + Purpose, you’ll possess the profound ability to guide yourself and others into a state of deep embodiment, transcending conventional meditation practices and fostering a transformative connection between mind, body, and spirit. These skills can be brought into a coaching practice, a yoga or meditation teaching career, psychotherapy, and so much more…”

Rooted in the intersectionality of mindfulness

In the realm of meditation programs, we have found that many provide a checklist of practices to follow, yet often fall short when it comes to grounding individuals in their own bodies and guiding them to assist others in the journey toward embodiment. The missing piece of the puzzle lies in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and deeply personal, practical application. Recognizing that one size doesn't fit all, our approach acknowledges the uniqueness of individuals. That’s why we created this program: we understand that true embodiment goes beyond a mere checklist; it involves a personalized, practical understanding of the diverse ways in which people experience mindfulness. Our program is designed to fill this gap, ensuring that you not only comprehend the concepts but also gain the hands-on skills needed to help others embody their practice in a way that resonates with their individuality.
