You’ll leave with practical tools to integrate mindfulness into daily life.

You’re the navigator of your inner growth, and I’m here to guide you through the Mindfulness Boot Camp—a regulated group therapy program fostering mindfulness to enhance your well-being.

Meeting biweekly on Wednesdays at Castle Wellness (2835 34 Street SW, Calgary, AB), we combine psychoeducation and skills practice based on mindfulness principles, using rhythm-based techniques (drum washes, 432hz bowls, gongs), conscious breathwork, and soundscapes to regulate your brainstem and reduce stress. Studies show mindfulness significantly improves mental and physical health, focus, emotional regulation, relationships, creativity, life satisfaction, and habits.

The schedule includes an Open Session, followed by a 4-session Closed Group, each just under 2 hours (6:15-8:15 PM, 15 mins arrival/settling, 90 mins education, 15 mins wrap-up). Cost is $65 per session (GST-exempt, regulated health service, max 12 participants).
