The mind can go in a thousand directions, but on this beautiful path, I walk in peace. ~Thich Nhat Hanh
Work pressures, financial concerns, health worries, troubling headlines, unresolved trauma—chronic stress can hit us from any direction. When it becomes overwhelming, the mind and body react with “fight, flight, or freeze,” flooding us with stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline.
This stress response disrupts our peace of mind, making us anxious, filling us with distressing thoughts, draining our energy, and darkening our mood. Over time, this constant strain weakens our immune system, increasing the risk of serious illness down the road.
Here’s the good news! Mindfulness can help restore our peace of mind.
I’m Paul Nelson, a behavioral health specialist and mindfulness practitioner and coach. I’ve witnessed firsthand how being mindful drops us into the present moment—the ‘Now’—reducing the brain’s stress response and allowing our peace of mind to surface again. Our bodies relax, our minds clear, and we feel better, almost immediately. Many other benefits come our way when mindfulness is practiced regularly. And there’s plenty of research to back it up.
But weaving a mindfulness practice into our busy lives and sustaining it over time can be challenging. That’s why there’s…
PEACE OF MIND
Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. —Thich Nhat Hanh
This 6-week private coaching program is designed to help you remain calm, confident, and resilient, no matter what life throws your way. It focuses on developing a personalized, evidence-based practice based on an approach called sustainable mindfulness.
Sustainable mindfulness uses formal exercises, like breathwork and body scans, to develop and strengthen your awareness skills. But this practice isn’t confined to a meditation cushion or yoga mat. It’s infused into your daily routine.
You’ll learn to see everything you think, say, and do as an opportunity to enter the Now. These touchpoints of presence live in ordinary moments: riding the elevator, walking your dog, gardening, careful listening. Practicing presence in this way naturally builds over time to make mindfulness—and peace of mind—a sustainable part of your life.
As your mindfulness coach, I will:
Assess your needs, challenges, and goals, including your stress triggers and anxiety type.
Introduce mindfulness exercises tailored to who you are and how you live and work.
Help you stay focused and motivated, especially during this early phase of practice.
Work with you through any difficult emotions, thoughts, or reactions you may face along the way.
Online apps and podcasts can help get you started, but they can’t replace the personalized guidance and real-time support you get by working with a skilled mindfulness coach.
My aim is to help you grow a practice that flourishes into a lifetime of peace, joy, and contentment. It might even help you live longer.
