private sessions

pause with us.

Life can be extremely challenging. We often get so caught up in the external noise of the world that we forget how to connect inward to our true wisdom and insight.  Everyone has the innate capacity to see things more clearly and to listen to their own inner voice and wisdom. Through the practice of mindfulness you can learn to quiet your busy mind so that you can listen and connect to your own inner strengths, passions and boundless capacity to love yourself and the world around you. Working privately with one of our expert instructors at Pause to be Present, you will learn ways to find peace and calm each day by creating a new relationship with yourself and your life. Mindfulness can help you sleep better, improve digestion, boost focus, lower blood pressure, calm anxiety, and so much more. Through private, one-on-one instruction with our expert teaching staff, you will learn lifelong skills to help you thrive!

You can schedule your private sessions with one of our expert teachers below.  If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
