Put your own oxygen mask on first, just like the flight attendants always say. You’ll have more energy and resources to do the things you want and have to do if you put self-care first – and I can show you exactly how to do that in just 30 minutes.
Lying down for a few minutes in Constructive Rest helps you to improve your posture without strain, release excess tension and calm your nervous system so you can be your most efficient, energetic and productive self. You feel better and are more fun to be around!
No experience necessary!

A Walking Workshop with Imogen Ragone

9:00 – 11:00 AM
Newlin Grist Mill Park, Glen Mills, PA
A beautiful natural environment, mindfulness, good company and movement will all come together in this special workshop, which also blends two of Imogen’s personal loves – walking in nature and teaching her BodyIntelligence work.
We will meet and walk together at the lovely Newlin Grist Mill Park in Glen Mills, PA. The workshop will include about an hour of relaxed walking time along the easy and flat trails there, punctuated with pauses for instructions, explorations, mindfulness prompts, and check-ins to help you feel more present, connected, and at ease. As you walk there will be time to be social and time to be “with yourself.” The balance is up to you.
Cost: $50 / Early Bird: $40 – Save $10 if registered by September 1st.

It’s normal to get stuck in a cycle of stress, so it’s vital to have a way to gently move through it. This course will help you discover some simple, effective ways to get unstuck, without the need to rehash old experiences.
According to Complex Trauma Specialist, Deb Dana, LCSW, “A regulated nervous system…brings flexibility, which brings resilience…a regulated system…can dysregulate and come back to regulation.”
In this course Imogen and her co-presenter trauma awareness educator, Shay Seaborne, will introduce you to a portable, discreet, use-anywhere tool that invites ease and helps you build, or rebuild, a healthy nervous system – a regulated nervous system. You’ll build on this skill and be able to apply it in many areas of your life.
With Imogen and Shay’s expert guidance, you’ll complete the course able to tap in to your own body’s intelligence and better regulate your own nervous system. You’ll start building your own framework of safety and connection, and live with greater ease and joy.
