Join Collective Being for free monthly online classes that will include body-based mindfulness, movement, somatic practices and psycho-education to support stress release, nervous system regulation, rest and connection.

Each month will feature a different theme that responds to common symptoms of stress and burnout. You are welcome to join us for one or all classes. Classes are welcoming of all bodies and mobility - no prior movement or meditation experience is necessary. All practices facilitated by Collective Being are trauma-informed, accessible and mental health aware.

You will be offered options to explore different tools and strategies for focusing, connecting with your breath, and/or tuning into the experience of your body.
Our facilitators will always encourage you to engage in our sessions in a way that feels appropriate and supportive for you. This may mean that you try everything we offer, only try some things, or explore your own variations instead.
