When helpers flourish, whole communities heal.

Mindfulness training for frontline caregivers. Free to those who need it, funded by those who value it.

Our Signature Training

Sustainable Service is for anyone who carries the gap between what people deserve and what the system allows — social workers, teachers, case managers, community health workers, and more.

It's built on: trauma-sensitive mindfulness, an understanding of moral injury, and the science of human flourishing.

Six 45-minute, one-on-one sessions over Zoom, from $499. Payment plans and subsidized spots available.

Featured Event

Creative Awakening is an ongoing monthly series built around leveraging what moves you — your favorite music, art, nature, film, and more — as instruments of personal development. Whether you are creating or simply appreciating, this program is for you.

Our Tuesday, Nov 17th session is co-facilitated by Adam Berner and special guest Alessandra Otero, whose creative practice explores the connection between our inner selves and the living world through natural pigments, intuitive mark-making, and meditative forms.
