Experience the Power of the Pause: A Mini-Retreat with Jillian Pransky

In a world that constantly pulls us forward, taking a pause is a powerful act of love. When we slow down—even for a single breath—we make space to meet ourselves and others with compassion, tenderness, and presence.

Join mindfulness and yoga teacher Jillian Pransky for a 2-hour in-person mini-retreat dedicated to the art of pausing as a practice of care, healing, and connection.
