COURSE
With Gretchen Haist
Does your mind feel like a whirlwind, even when your body is trying to rest? As we navigate the many roles we play—entrepreneur, partner, parent, and community member—it is easy to feel pulled in a dozen directions. Many people believe mindfulness is about stopping thoughts or reaching a state of perfect calm, but in reality, it is a form of internal training that supports every other hat you wear. In this 5-day foundational course, you will learn the mechanics of how to stay steady amidst the noise. We focus on turning mindfulness into a practical toolkit for longevity, growth, and vitality. What you can expect: The 3-Step Cycle: Learn the "proper form" for your mind and how to perform a "mental push-up" to strengthen your attention. Daily Micro-Practices: Master short, 30-second tools like the U-Turn Arrow and Contact Point Counting that fit into the busiest schedules. The Science of Settle: Understand the neuroplasticity behind the practice and how lowering cortisol supports your long-term physical health. Pivot Points: Learn how to identify the "gaps" in your day to reset your nervous system without needing a meditation cushion. Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned practitioner looking for a refresh on the basics, this course provides a grounded, evidence-based approach to living with more presence and less stress.
