Do you often realize at 4 PM that you haven’t eaten, used the restroom, or taken a breath all day? Do you find yourself saying yes to requests when your body is screaming no?

For many women with ADHD, this isn’t just forgetfulness or people pleasing. It is a biological survival strategy known as Self-Abandonment. Before you dive into the rest of your week, take 60 minutes to align your most important asset: your nervous system.

In this interactive, neuro-affirming session, we will explore why ADHD brains disconnect from the body (a process called Interoception issues) and how to safely come back home to yourself. Led by a Board Certified Health and Wellness Nurse Coach, Somatic Coach, and Yin Yoga Teacher, you will learn to drop the helper identity and physically embody your own authority.

In this interactive workshop, we will explore:

• The Science: Why you live in your head and ignore physical cues.

• Survival Mode: Understanding the Fawn Response and why we mask our needs to feel safe.

• The Somatics: A guided, gentle practice to reconnect with your body without overwhelm.

Format: A trauma-informed space featuring gentle, upright movement and experiential coaching. Designed for all brains and bodies, no yoga clothes or mats required.
