Group Experiences
Working with groups has been part of my path for years - multi-day retreats, daylong unfoldment labs, mindfulness courses, custom workshops for teams and communities, and co-facilitated retreats.
My approach is rooted in creating a well-held container - grounded in presence, attunement, and trust - for individual and collective unfolding. I'm committed to staying attuned and responsive to what's arising in the group field.
Sessions tend to weave together teaching, guided practice, small-group practice, and integration - engaging head, heart, and body.
Themes I tend to work with include:
Parts work and the shift into Presence
Befriending the inner critic and freeing ourselves from the trance of unworthiness
Trust, resourcing, and resilience in this time between worlds
Coming alive to our innate wholeness, creativity, and aliveness
Mindfulness and contemplative practice for everyday life
"I feel calmer, more grounded, and more JOY after doing this retreat. I accessed the strong, wise, and centered part of myself that serves me in my life more than the stress and anxiety voices. I also made some new friends and had a lot of fun. I just love Sarah-Marie's facilitation style. She is patient and supportive, and she leaves a lot of space for answers… I'm just very impressed overall - and I facilitate a lot of groups, so I know quality when I see it. Highly recommended - especially for perfectionists and other high-achievers who are growth-minded."
