"The Nature Pill" isn't just a metaphor; it's a powerful tool backed by research. At this event, you'll delve into the evidence showing how nature can:
🌱 Significantly reduce stress by lowering cortisol levels.
🌱 Promote relaxation and lower blood pressure.
🌱 Increase feelings of calm and grounding.
🌱 Elevate mood by boosting oxytocin, the "love hormone."
Our expert speakers will teach you practices that incorporate nature into your daily life. Discover how to leverage the natural world to enhance your mental health and cultivate a sense of peace. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of Patch of Heaven Sanctuary. We look forward to seeing you there.
Chief Experience Officer, Patch of Heaven Sanctuary, Founder of the Mindful Pocket Park @Patch, certified mindfulness meditation teacher through the UC Berkeley Greater Good Science Center/Sounds True training, Executive Resilience Coach and Forest Therapy guide.
A former global TV executive and marketing communications expert, Jewell experienced burnout and C-PTSD firsthand, choosing as her healing path putting her “tush on a cush”. A climate refugee due to flooding during Covid brought her to the Open Awareness Buddhist Center, where she took Vows of Refuge, staying for 18 months and deepening her lived dedication to the path of liberation; circumambulation practice (kora walking around the stupas) and supporting the lama was part of daily life. She most loved the daily kayak paddles in the Little River, recording “Pockets of Peace” floating meditations to “invite others to float in the boat” with her.
Jewell teaches Mindful Leadership, Transformation, Communication and Focus practices through workshops and retreats for eMerge Americas, Babson College’s Center for Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership, Miami Dade College’s Idea Center, MDC Foundation, Philanthropy Miami, Radical Partners, TD Bank, Chapman Partnership, and Levan Center for Innovation/NSU.
She leads Patch of Heaven Sanctuary’s Mindful Nature Guide training for the Mindful Pocket Park and is working on expanding the land to launch the Mindful Nature Institute.
