Jill brings years of experience guiding participants in yoga, chanting, meditation, movement, sound healing, and journaling.

Whether through a single mantra or a consistent practice, Jill supports each participant in discovering their own path with kindness and ease.

One recent client just told her "I found my notes from two years ago and was amazed! Jill, your process really works!" Participants will leave with a simple, practical guide to living as their intended self in 2026. All you need is a journal or pen and paper-and the intention to show up fully for yourself. Dress comfortably for some possibly gentle movement as well. Bring any props if sitting on the floor doesn't work for you. "This is more than a workshop-it's a space to pause, nurture yourself, and plant seeds for a year of purpose and presence," says Jill Thiry. "Even if you already feel like you have it all, this is a chance to step in, reflect, and receive something truly meaningful, and practicable!"
