HOW MINDFULNESS CAN EMPOWER

Talk Description:
We all carry younger versions of ourselves within us—playful, wounded, curious, scared—and those inner children still shape how we think, feel, and relate. In this weekly session, Elyse Iovino  offers a safe, transformative space to explore and heal those parts of yourself.
Blending Internal Family Systems (IFS), improv, mindfulness, and self-reflection, Elyse gently guides you to reconnect with your inner child through curiosity and compassion. Whether you're new to inner child work or deep into your healing path, Elyse offers compassionate, playful guidance to help you cultivate greater self-awareness, emotional insight, and a renewed sense of joy and authenticity.

Session Goals & Outcomes:
- ​​Enhanced Self-Awareness: Develop a deeper understanding of their inner children and its impact on current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, leading to greater emotional awareness.
- Stronger Connections: Gain insights into how their internal parts affect their interpersonal relationships, leading to improved communication and deeper connections with others.
