Sunday morning reset with our SmallTalk team. 🧘‍♀️🌿

Huge thank you to Marissa, Lead SLP at our Scripps Ranch clinic, for leading our first SmallTalk yoga session in Balboa Park! Her energy and guidance left us feeling refreshed and ready to take on the holidays.

Our team shines not only as therapists, but through the passions and hobbies that make them who they are. Here’s to more moments like this and more shavasanas to come! Happy Thanksgiving! 💫🥰
