You will learn how to • Return to the present moment when life gets loud • Make wise and calm choices in stressful situations • Accept emotions without shame or blame • Use the breath to steady your mind and body • Show yourself the same compassion you offer others • Find joy in ordinary everyday moments • Let go of the belief that you are broken Each day offers a simple teaching, a personal story, and a guided practice to help you carry peace into your daily life even when you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected. By the end of the course you will have practical tools to meet life with a calmer mind, a softer heart, and a clearer sense that you already have everything you need.

His teachings draw from Zen traditions and contemporary practice, offering clear and practical guidance for meeting life’s challenges with calm and clarity.

Thoroughly enjoyed waking-up to Steven’s lessons and being awakened to new ways of being by them. The story of anticipating the storm on the Cornwall adventure will always be with me, guiding me to notice and appreciate the present moment. Thank you, Steven, for sharing the wisdom you have learned on this journey with us and helping us weave it into real life.

I found it really interesting and helpful. How we meet life is where the magic is because life is going to meet us anyways regardless. I also think that compassion for ourselves is vital to find joy . It starts then within ourselves and then manifests . Thank you . Just want I needed .

‘You Are Not Broken’ is a beautiful reminder that we already have all the tools we need and can find peace and joy in the simplest, everyday tasks. I love the Rumi poem right at the end telling us, however far we’ve strayed, we can always come back. Thank you Steven.
