🌱 Your Journey Begins Here
Join us for a transformative exploration of recovery that honors both your practical needs and spiritual growth. Together, we'll create a foundation for lasting change that comes from deep understanding and authentic connection.
Space is limited to ensure personalized attention and group cohesion.
Surface-Level fixes don't last.
Going on a new diet, adopting some self-care practices, or reading some inspirational quotes can motivate temporary behavior change. But real integration and habit-change happens through the in-depth identity work of full recovery.

The Art of Recovery provides a comprehensive roadmap covering all dimensions of well-being over time.
While the process requires commitment, courage, and patience, fully surrendering to it offers profound freedom on the other side.
Patricia comes from a long history of 12-step and is a certified Empowerment Coach. Sonja comes from a long history of health-related healing through science.
The two came together years ago and have been perfecting their own spiritual and healing paths combining their journeys into the two tracks of healing.
You had the courage to try some "drastic" measures to heal your own food issues, and now want to maintain, sustain and release old patterns and cravings.
Join us for a glimpse into the world of the art of recovery.
The Art of Recovery - Expanding your Journey is a pioneering, holistic series of courses guiding people to break free from painful cycles of disordered eating and unhelpful dieting by examining the deeper emotional and psychological roots that drive these behaviors. Integrating the latest scientific research on addiction, trauma and behavior change, the 12-module curriculum leads participants through a step-by-step process of self-examination, strategic inner work, and targeted interventions to resolve the underlying reasons one turns to food dysfunctionally. This is about finding the seeds manifesting as symptoms. When we can reframe eating dysfunctionally as a beautiful gift - we can walk back and heal the reasons we go to food.
Participants will build self-awareness over three phases and 3 months, dismantle limiting beliefs, release old triggers, and cultivate intuition. The course focuses intimately on exposing and understanding the emotional layers, old wounds, and repressed pain driving addictive behaviors. Participants will emerge with a greater connection to their inner wisdom, empowered by practical tools to nurture lasting change.
By journeying inward to resolve the root causes behind their substance use, participants can transcend unhelpful coping mechanisms and align more consciously with purpose. The Art of Recovery-Expanding Your Journey, illuminates your path to Wholeness.

There are multidimensional factors driving disordered eating - psychological, neurological, cultural, social, ancestral, childhood patterns, and trauma. Making lasting shifts requires peeling each layer of the onion to the deeper core wounding. Quick fixes never reach the roots.
Together we can heal.
Bonus Recovery Discussions
Before the course starts on January 25th, we will be offering additional calls to prepare for the course. We call them "Recovery Discussions."
During these calls, we will be helping you sort out some of the reasons we go to food. They will be on Thursdays at 4 pm Pacific / 7 pm Eastern. Watch your email for the dates.
Join us on a journey of self-discovery beyond unhelpful dieting mentalities.
