During this very uncertain time, many of us have felt lost, confused, and unsure about the impact of these changes for our lives and future. . It is normal to find yourself flowing in and out of wide ranges of feelings and emotions. To question your beliefs, principles, perspectives, and worldview. To be wondering what our world will look like when all of this is over. And, to question how you will show up in this new, changed world. . Allow me to support you in exploring t...hese thoughts, questions, and beliefs, in a safe space co-created together in a virtual online forum. . During our online gathering we will each have an opportunity to share our thoughts and feelings, whatever they may be in that moment, while compassionately recognizing that we are all in this together. . I will lovingly guide you all through a variety of exercises that will aim to provide immediate relaxation and relief. We will discuss coping skills, your current use of them, and how to integrate these tools in your daily practice to better support your emotional and spiritual health. . If you have any questions about how to register for this weekly group, feel free to reach out to me. It would be my pleasure to take a few minutes to provide more information about the inner-workings and intention for our support group. . This group will be held every Monday at 7:30pm. You can attend one or attend them all! I would love to see you there on March 30th! . Be sure to use the link provided here to signup: https://www.wctherapygroup.com//Finding_Meaning_in_the_tim

Hi NBHT Community Members! We’ve officially made it through our first full week of social distancing and it appears that this recommendation/order will be in place for a while longer until we can all be together in person again. As much as I love our in-person gatherings, last week has showed me that we can recreate the same experience even while in the comfort and safety of our own homes. So many of you reached out to share your personal experiences after our last event and ...your feedback was received with immense gratitude. The most common response was about your surprise in the magnitude of the physical effects you all felt during the meditation and energy healing. Unanimously the group echoed that their experience was parallel to the in-person gatherings. This fills my heart with so much JOY! Tonight we will once again meet virtually and this week I will be using ZOOM. Similar to last week, I will send you the ZOOM invitation after your weekly self-care investment is received. This week we will be moving to a sliding scale of $15-$25 before returning back to our regular participation fee of $25 beginning on April 1st. If you are currently financially impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic, reach out to me personally to explore potential options. Your continued love and support of NBHT means so much to me and it is truly an honor to continue to provide a safe space for your healing and spiritual growth, especially during this very uncertain time. Remember that no matter how challenging things might feel right now that you are all doing the best that you can and that we are all in this together!!

Hi New Beginnings Holistic Therapies Community Members! I hope that this message finds you all well and doing your best to remain as safe and calm as you can during this difficult time in our world. As you have all heard by this point, Philadelphia and surrounding counties have all limited access to what they deem non-essential business/gatherings and this includes gatherings at New Beginnings Holistic Therapies, Inc. ... Since it is a part of our mission at NBHT to uphold the health and safety of our community and citizens, we are going to do our part to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 virus by transitioning to virtual group meetings for this weeks meditation and next weeks as well. In addition, all one-on-one talk therapy and energy healing sessions will be held virtually via the Blue Jeans platform. Wednesdays meditation and energy healing event will be capped at 15 participants and will be offered at the reduced rate of $15 for our first virtual gathering. If you plan to join then you will follow the steps outlined below: 1.) Create a free account on either the Blue Jeans website or by downloading their free app on your cell phone. - This will be the platform used to livestream the meditation session. Please make yourself familiar with it prior to the event and plan to arrive to the meeting 15 minutes before we begin. 2.) Send your $15 self-care investment via Venmo, PayPal, or cash app to ‘JoAnne Hanson’ and text or email me to confirm that it has been received. 3.) Once your self-care investment is received you will be sent a confidential meeting ID and passcode to join the Blue Jeans meeting scheduled for our meditation session. 4.) Log-in on Wednesday at 6:45pm and participate in our usual weekly event from the comfort and safety of your own home! If you have any questions or need additional support at this time, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I am here to help support you during this difficult and transitional time. We all need to be doing our part to uplift one another and it is essential that you know that you can continue to receive emotional, mental, and spiritual support here at NBHT!

Looking forward to tomorrow evenings Heart Chakra Meditation and Energy Healing Event! RSVP below...

So it’s officially been just over one year since I’ve said adios to social media. . There were a few times in the past year where I’ve opened the apps with an intention in mind and each time I was IMMEDIATELY reminded why I decided that social media is just not for me. . During this time away I have spent a lot of energy trying to understand my repulsion to these platforms, where it comes from, what to do about it, and I have even literally interviewed people to better u...nderstand their connection to social media with hopes that I would somehow suddenly get it. Side note: my apologies to the people in my life who had to hear me complaining and debating with them about this topic! . The conundrum for me lies in that despite my serious resistance to the use and perceived time wasted on social media platforms for both myself and others, there seems to also be space for growth if utilized in the right way. . I have witnessed so many amazing people use IG, FB, etc. to share stories of their lives and offer knowledge and insights to help & inspire others. However, I have also seen a barrage of egos displayed in the stories, selfies, and posts to boast unhealthy ways of life. . This left me wondering... Where do I fit in? How does this tool add to my life? In what ways does it cause harm, either mental or emotional? What IS the purpose here??? . The truth is that I still don’t have clear answers to these contemplations. But what I do know is that we seem to live in a world that values this type of output and connection and in order to continue to share my gifts with a new population of people I must learn to adapt with these ever changing times. . So, I don’t know exactly what this means for me and my return to social media. Perhaps I will delete the app again after this post, or maybe I’ll suddenly find myself inspired to share. Either way I intend to push through my fears and challenge my beliefs about these platforms while continuing to trust my intuition and guidance. . In the meantime while I’m working on changing my narrative around social media I should probably learn how to navigate this app and figure out how to make all of these cool video stories at the top of the screen, lol Feel free to DM me with some tips, but text me first to help me figure out how to read the DM . P.S. A special thanks to my students and community members who have helped to support New Beginnings Holistic Therapies accounts during my hiatus. I’m grateful for your gentleness and encouragement along the way. See more
