Philosophy

 

Relaxing. It's an inside job.™

I believe that relaxation is the gateway to a healthy mind and body. So how does relaxation happen? It's a four-phase process, and I’m here to guide you to it.

Four Phases of Relaxation

Retreat—Take a deep, cleansing breath... welcome to "within"... a safe, sacred space... both beautiful and serene.
Release—Immerse yourself in the unwinding process... let go of stress, muscle tension, unwanted thoughts and feelings... all of the circumstances that lead to dis-ease.
Restore—Allow your being to return to its natural state... one of balance and alignment.
Renew—Give yourself that little something extra... enhance your sense of well-being and peace of mind.

There's a perfect recipe for every body. I'll help you find yours.

  • Private sessions offer Integrative Relaxation Bodywork and Mindful Relaxation Coaching—

    • I'll use an integrative bodywork approach, incorporating many somatic and relaxation modalities specifically chosen to suit your body’s needs.

    • I’ll coach you to "retreat, release, restore and renew." in the way only you and your body can. so that you can begin to relax whenever and wherever you want.

  • Relaxation Reboot is your relaxation destination. a group class where every Wednesday I rotate meditation and breathwork/gentle movement. Join me for 20-40 minutes and open to your innate relaxation response.

  • Classes and events, like yoga and Tibetan qigong, teach you to tune into a deeper connection that you will be able to create at will, anytime and anywhere. I teach some of these classes while others are offered by a host of associates who regularly offer courses through the Center.

Imagine being relaxed in every moment. From the instant you awaken until the time you go to sleep. Is your first thought that it's not possible? Are you tired, stressed, irritable, anxious, depressed? Do you suffer from unexplained muscle tension or pain?

If you consistently have trouble relaxing, Mindful Relaxation Coaching can change that. No matter what your circumstances, this unique coaching method can teach you to experience more relaxation in your life. You will be guided to move yourself through the four phases of relaxation. With coaching and practice, you can create a relaxation response whenever you want.

Since every body is different, we work together to find the exact combination of methods that work best for you. These methods may include meditation, breathwork, gentle movement, stretching, guided imagery and more. Once we find what works, I will coach you to engrain them in your being—in your everyday life—into a habit, where relaxing becomes your body's natural response no matter what is going on around you.

Mindful Relaxation can usually be learned in a series of eight 60-minute sessions. For best results, plan to come weekly over an 8-week time period. It's a gift you can give yourself, or someone else, that can last a lifetime.

If the idea of living a relaxed life appeals to you, I invite you to request a session now.

What My Clients are Saying

 
Tamara welcomed me, actually fit me in because I was in pain. Her process, a combination of hands-on healing methods, resulted in far less pain and more mobility. Her personal energy and presence was warm and engaging. I felt safe with her and we just met and I knew I would return again. I highly recommend Tamara.
