Mind Body Medicine

Awaken the Healer Within You

Fleche facilitates workshops and small group opportunities that are designed to teach and practice mind body skills that are proven to help heal trauma and develop resilience.

In this small group series, you will learn ways to connect with your body, settle the fight, flight, or freeze stress response, and awaken the healer within you.

Using curriculum designed by Dr. James Gordon at the Center for Mind Body Medicine, this program empowers participants with evidence-based techniques that can lower levels of stress, improve mood, enhance resiliency, and help relieve or prevent chronic health conditions.

  • “Patti and Shelly brought me into a virtual space every week where I felt safe, and knew I was heard. Even by just the second or third session, I felt like I could share anything with our group. I left every session with a sense of hope, calm, and comradery – and I know that the Mind Body Skills practices I’ve learned here will continue to help me for a lifetime! Thank you and much love to Patti, Shelly, and my MBS friends!”

  • "Shelly and Patti are phenomenal leaders of the Mind-Body Medicine Skills Group. In a few short weeks I was able to learn simple, meaningful and useful strategies to improve my mental health and well-being. They are so "real", and create a community where anyone can feel comfortable to share, learn and grow. I am truly grateful for this experience and I'm already using the strategies I learned! My recommendation: take this class!"
