A hands-on workshop for women designed to demystify the lymphatic system help you deeply care for yourself in a nourishing (and practical) way.

Led by a certified lymphatic specialist and a holistic life coach, this 2-hour immersive lab blends education, embodied practice, and real-time coaching—so you don’t just learn what helps, you leave knowing how to use it consistently.

Through evidence-based science, embodied self-tending, and supportive coaching, you’ll understand why lymphatic care matters—and learn simple ways to support your body that feel nourishing instead of overwhelming.

What to Expect

❋ Personal Action Plan

Create a realistic, personalized self-tending menu—so you leave with 2–3 practices you’ll actually use, not a list that lives in your notes app.

❋ Expert Facilitation

This is a collaboration between two experts who care about what happens after the workshop: the science that supports your body, and the coaching that helps your plan stick.

❋ Science, Explained

Understand how lymphatic health impacts fatigue, inflammation, immunity, mood, and energy—without needing a medical background.

❋ Accountability & Community

Gentle accountability and shared intention—because practices stick better when you’re not doing them alone.

This has encouraged me to make significant changes that will impact all aspects of my health.
— Workshop Attendee

❋ Lymph Support Kit

A thoughtfully curated lymphatic care collection to support your practices at home. 

❋ Embodied Self-Tending Practice

Experience tangible ease and release through self-lymphatic massage, diaphragmatic breathing, and gentle movement—so your body actually feels the difference, not just understands it.

“If you’re going to invest time and energy in self-care, make it effective, efficient, and sustainable.”

- Elsa Mitchell

Where's that dry brush you bought but only used a few times?

Do you ever feel puffy, sluggish, or heavy in your body—even when you’re doing "all the right things”?

Have you tried routines that sounded promising, only to set them aside because they were confusing, uncomfortable, or hard to keep up with?

If this sounds familiar, you’re not doing anything wrong—you’ve likely just been missing clear guidance and an approach that works with your body.

When we don’t understand why something works—or don’t feel results—self-care quickly becomes another abandoned “should.”

The missing piece is support — understanding your body, embodied practice, and turning insight into habit.

Your Facilitators

I am now well-prepared to care for myself more meaningfully at home. These practices moved the needle for me in so many ways!
— Workshop Attendee
The guidance was supportive and caring, offering ways to integrate the practices into my daily routine without feeling overwhelmed.

  • “I didn’t realize how disconnected I was from this part of my body until this workshop. The science made it make sense, but the practices made it land. I left feeling calmer, more energized, and—most importantly—with a plan I’ve actually kept using. This wasn’t about doing more. It was about doing the right small things.”
