Margo Helman

Margo is a clinical social worker and therapist who is passionate about bringing our most precious practices to relationship conflict. Practices such as mindfulness, equanimity, walking the hero’s path, and speaking our truth. One day, years ago, Margo noticed how pointless it felt to get up from the meditation cushion or yoga mat, walk into the room where her people are, and lose it! How valuable is it to practice mindfulness and connect to inner wisdom on the cushion or mat if all inner peace and wisdom disappear when you need them most? Of course, there is a point any time we connect with our wisest selves and to the present moment. But relationship conflict is where our precious skills are most impactful. After developing and teaching methods for bringing mindfulness to fights and arguments in the couple or family, Margo is convinced that the greatest opportunity and obligation for equanimity practice and right action are those painful moments of our precious relationships. Follow Margo on Insight Timer, come to weekly LIVE sessions and learn how to stop conflict from ruining your day, your relationships and your sense of self. Choose your response, instead of being triggered into action. Be peaceful or be fierce. Or both. It’s up to you, according to your values and goals.
