Burnout Recovery & Self-care for WOMEN
Contemplative practice for CHANGE-MAKERS & CAREGIVERS

We begin with silence, then we live out loud

Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge Socorro, NM 2018

"In all my years of coaching, and in my personal life, I have come to believe that nothing is more important than cultivating one's contemplative life. If you don't have a practice, currently, I urge you to adopt one now. I'm convinced that nothing in the world changes your lived experience, or the lives of those around you, so dramatically." SS

A note from Sara: 

I stumbled into a contemplative practice accidentally. Without any book or guide, I was forced to find the path myself, as best I could, and to then articulate and document the journey.  It is this experience that informs my work as a coach. (Sometimes, relatively novice practitioners can be uniquely helpful to  beginners!) And, of course, in this modern age, we have perfected the art of distraction. So for many people- myself included - getting Still can be profoundly challenging. At such times, an accountabilibuddy (to borrow the South Park term) in the form of a coach can be helpful.
