TIMBo is a program for All Women to
Relieve stress;
Better manage emotions; and
Create healthier and more compassionate responses to life’s challenges.
It’s also valuable for changing unhealthy patterns & creating a safe space to be more vulnerable & authentic.
The program includes workbook-based discussions, breath practices, gentle yoga & guided meditation. (no experience is necessary & All are Welcome!)
As you learn to allow & feel all your emotions thru the TIMBo program, you will awaken to the gift & resource of your breath; – which is resilient & strong enough to hold, process and release all of your emotions.
The TIMBo program is confidential, reliable & safe; and is one that will give you more self-compassion & self-acceptance, serenity & happiness.
“TIMBo is a mindfulness-based intervention that includes mindful discussions on topics such as compassion, fear, confidence, shame, awareness and perspective, over 8 or 16 sessions. Discussions also include how and where emotions are felt and manifest in the body, and incorporate breathing techniques to help in creating full body awareness. TIMBo sessions always close with simple and gentle yoga sequence followed by a guided meditation. The TIMBo program is trauma-informed and gender-responsive (designed to be suitable for women who have experienced trauma) and is appropriate for everyone, regardless of an individual’s exposure to trauma or experience with yoga.” (yhtimbo.org-creator of TIMBo)
Our Timbo Online Program will meet via the simple to use Zoom video platform. Participate from the comfort of your home or at any other location. All you need is internet access; a cell phone, tablet or computer with a video camera, privacy, and some room to participate in gentle yoga.

Testimonial
“J truly embodies the key qualities of mindfulness: I felt the quality of her presence. I experienced her non-judgmental, accepting attitude. I felt warmed by her huge, compassionate heart. She readily inspires trust and is easy to be with – very important to trauma survivors like me. Of equal importance is establishing a sense of safety; I felt held and nourished by her facilitation style and way of being. Myself, my family, and my friends all noticed significant changes as the result of having taken the course. My family said I seemed lighter and more at ease with myself. I also found myself outgrowing friendships that I finally realized were no longer serving me. And I felt steadier as I became increasingly inclined to ‘go into the body’ when triggered. This enabled me to respond to triggering situations with greater dignity and integrity as opposed to reacting which would always leave me feeling shame. Overall, I’m grateful to J for facilitating this course and encourage anyone considering it, to not waste another minute thinking about it. Go ahead and enroll – you won’t be disappointed!” R.R.
