  • Your cohort schedule

  • Google Meet link

  • Instructions for accessing your weekly lessons

  • What to expect during our first support group

Each Week

You'll receive:

  • A prerecorded lesson to watch on your own time

  • A brief weekly check-in before our support group

  • A live online support group where we'll connect, reflect, and practice together

After the Cohort

You'll continue to be invited to our free monthly Hootenannies—casual gatherings where we spend time together in nature, make art, laugh, rest, and connect with others who understand what it's like to live with chronic illness and pain.

If you need anything before we begin, simply reply to any of my emails. I'm happy to help.
