I’m excited to partner with this week to do a talk about Vulnerability and Boundaries! It’s not always a popular place to dive into a conversation but it hits on one of their pillars for Lifestyle Medicine…Relationships. -
Looking forward to real conversations and genuine “knowing” laughter as well!

This week is 10 years in business! -
Ten years ago we took the leap to start a private practice that was a space for clients to come to that was calm and professional enough to do their most personal work. -
It was nerve wracking and uncertain but it was the best decision we could have ever made! Lots of hard work, dedication, and laughter got us through the beginning. While a clear direction and care of clients has kept us going. -
Leslie Houck, Maggie Putman, and Andrea Meier were the original owners. Also, there have been (and continues to be) wonderful associate therapists along way! For which we are deeply grateful!-
Thank you for letting us be a part of your deeply personal journey along the way.

We began our local-ish retreats 5 years ago with and Chef Renee. It is a combination of our strengths, mental health, movement, and deep connections. We have decided this will be our last local retreat for now. After this we will pause and expand to other areas of the country. If you’re curious and want to stay local, this is the year:) The setting is lakefront nestled in the Adirondack Mountains in the fall:) Reach out to Juliana or Andrea with any questions 🍁🧘‍♀️☀️😌 -

There are many retreats to choose from. One of the ways that ours is different is that we don’t video or take photos of participants while they are here…on purpose! This is time for them, if they want to share it’s up to them! This retreat is for anyone who wants to dig a little deeper into themselves and add some tools to their coping tool box. -
You’ll see photos of us, of some of what we do and the gorgeous scenery! Any questions? Reach out to us! -

It’s official!!! All the details for our 5th Retreat are here! We have made just a few changes since last year. It’s the same place: Silver Bay On Lake George! We have a new meeting space which will allow for more personalization. Accommodations: It is single or double occupancy with a choice of an upgrade if you want it. Programing will still be with Andrea and Juliana interweaving their respective expertise in mind and body for continued somatic experiences. -
Reach out to either of us with any questions! All the details at https://move Breathe.live/retreat

Happy New Year! This year we will try to post a little more regularly about all things mental health. -
After the festivities of the holidays, often a goal to pay attention to food and exercise is talked about with lots of clients. -
I stumbled across Geneen Roth’s work years ago and it asks you to think about food in a different way. For any of you who are curious about the emotional/mental part of food she has a great workshop that is just 1.5 hours next week. It could allow you to dip your toe into of her work; which offers a different way of thinking about dieting and your relationship with food. -
