Hi everyone.
Early bird registration for my 6-week virtual course for adult adoptees opens today. The course will begin on Monday February 26th. Feel free to share with anyone who may be interested. Feel free to ask questions too!

The new year is well on its way and I hope it has brought a sense of renewal and possibility into your life. February is often described as the month of love and holds different meanings for everyone. We often focus outward with our care and expressions of affection. While that is a lovely gesture a...

This will be the fifth time I’ve offered this particular course for adult adoptees. We all come together having shared a common experience - one that has shaped how we view ourselves and the world.

The positive feedback I’ve received specific to the community aspect of this course is one of the main reasons I continue to offer it.

Community = Healing.

We are not just our stories. Neuroscience informs us that our brains change throughout our lifetime AND we have control over these changes. One of the ways to change our neural networks is by engaging in new experiences.

Join me beginning February 14th for 6 weeks of connection and healing.
Let’s do this together!

Hello my fellow adoptees! The next session for my healing course "Come Out of the Fog and Into Your Life: Rewire Your Brain for Resilience and Joy" begins on February 14th.

While enrollment will stay open until the start date, I'm currently offering an Early Bird Discount to anyone who signs up before February 1st. Register at www.leslijohnson.mn.co

I'm looking forward to beginning this 6-week course and meeting more of you! This course provides an opportunity to come together in the safety of our adoptee community to connect, learn and heal. During our time we will discuss different aspects of separation, grief, loss, pain, identity and self as it relates to adoption and your life. We’ll talk about trauma and the body, implicit memory, the brain and the nervous system and the miracle of neuroplasticity: that our brains change throughout our lifespan and we have control over those changes! You will also acquire useful resources and practical tools to work with difficult thoughts and feelings. You'll have the opportunity to connect with your authentic self as you begin to rewire your brain for calm, clarity and resilience.

Not only that, but alumni of the course are invited to join past participants and myself in our Alumni Community! This is a tight-knit space where we come together for bi-weekly live calls. There is no obligation to join of course but It's a wonderful way to continue the conversations from the course and stay connected with fellow adult adoptees.

I'm not sure when I'll be offering this course again so consider signing up!
