R.I.S.E. was developed by Joanna in order to bring the calming peace of mindfulness to the business world, particularly for high-stress executives. With a background in educational psychology, clinical mental health counseling, mindfulness, and yoga /meditation teacher trainings, Joanna designed R.I.S.E. to encourage and optimize performance. R.I.S.E. is anchored in the science and practice of somatic experiencing and meditation, brought to life by the experiential touch of 1:1 coaching. Giving yourself the gift and tools of a mindfulness-based coaching is a great benefit and is already being implemented by many progressive businesses. The crux of the program has foci on:

RESTORE: teaching you to return to your calm internal awareness (aka Best Self)

INTEGRATE: train you to use mindfulness techniques when you are under stress

SHIFT: encourage executives to promote stress reduction as an aspect of corporate culture

ELEVATE: increase productivity and efficiency
