Testimonials About Learning with Liz
"I consistently left class feeling refreshed and relaxed. Meditating does NOT come easily to me, but after learning these techniques and committing to this weekly practice I felt like a weight was lifted and my perspective on myself and the world around me significantly improved."
"This was such a rich experience. Every week I looked forward to the training to hear what Liz had to offer about meditation. She is so warm and personable and knowledgeable about the topic. This was one of the best forms of self-care I have done in a while. So much gratitude."
"Liz expanded my knowledge of mindfulness, my vision for the role it could play in my life long-term while giving me a taste for the immediate benefits it offers. The series changed me from a person who dabbled mindfulness once in a while into a person with a daily practice. I've already noticed improvements in my ability to be present when I'm with my kids and to control impact of my stressful job."
Workshops & Classes
Mindful Motherhood Group
Mindful Motherhood is a therapeutic group for mothers to awaken self-compassion & personal growth in supportive community. The group is limited to seven members at a time, to preserve a space of intimacy and safety.
We will begin each week with a guided meditation to ground and steady the mind and heart. We will then share our various experiences of motherhood-- the challenges as well as the gifts--and offer one another compassionate support. I will offer specific mindfulness and compassion practices to help all group members practice connecting deeply with their bodies and hearts so as to show up with more presence for themselves and their families.
We meet on Mondays from 12:30-2 pm (perhaps while your child is napping? or while you are on an extended lunch break?) for six weeks.
When?
Mondays from 12:30-2pm, often with a week off between meetings. The next session dates are: 10/2/23, 10/16/23, 10/30/23, 11/6/23, 11/13/23, 11/30/23.
Where?
2033 Hosea L Williams, Suite 2, Atlanta, GA 30317. We will meet in the private and intimate space of my therapy office, on the second floor of the building that also houses Dom Beijos and The Ballog in downtown Kirkwood. There is ample street parking as well as free parking in the gravel parking immediately adjacent to the building.
Payment?
Each group is a $65 investment in your well-being, with a commitment to attending/ paying for six weeks of the group once you join. (You will also have the option of continuing beyond the initial six weeks if you would like. You can pay for the group each week or in a lump sum in the beginning of the six weeks. You may pay using Zelle or by bringing a good old fashioned check.
What else do I need to know?
To preserve the safety and cohesion of the group, the group will stay closed for six weeks once It has started. Because I have blocked my time for the group, I ask that group members agree to pay for all sessions, even if a conflict emerges and they are unable to attend one session. As the end of the six week group approaches, we will assess together whether to continue for another six weeks or if the work of the group feels complete.
How do I get started?
Email me at liz@lizwilderyoung.com, and I'll let you know if there is still space in an upcoming group. If there is, we'll set up a time for me to answer any questions you have and make sure I'm prepared to welcome you into the group.
