EMBODY FIRST

Capacity. Connection. Expression.
Exploring what helps people thrive through embodiment,
psychology, creativity, and community.

Embody First is returning
Fall 2026
What creates the conditions for
people to truly thrive?
That question sits at the heart of my work.
Embody First creates immersive group experiences grounded in Somatic Psychology, Heart Intelligence, and experiential learning.
Our work begins with a simple understanding: we are more than our thoughts, and meaningful change involves more than intellectual insight.
Through experiences that engage the body, heart, mind, relationship, and deeper levels consciousness, we create conditions for greater presence, meaningful connection, expanded capacity, and new possibilities for how we live and relate.
The quality of our lives is shaped not only by what we know, but by the experiences that shape us.
A new collection of Designed Experiences for teams, organizations, communities, retreats, and gatherings is currently in development.
EMBODY FIRST CUSTOM DESIGNED EXPERIENCES
Thoughtfully designed experiences for teams, organizations, communities, retreats, conferences, and meaningful gatherings.
Each experience is created around the needs of the people in the room, weaving together psychology, embodiment, creativity, conversation, reflection, and shared experience to strengthen connection and expand human capacity.
9D BREATHWORK EXPERIENCES
The signature group offering of Embody First.
Immersive 9D Breathwork experiences paired with embodiment, mindset, reflection, and integration—designed to help people move beyond habitual thought, connect more deeply with themselves, and access new possibilities for how they feel, relate, and live.
BLESS & RELEASE COMMUNITY
An ongoing Austin-based community experience using Danielle LaPorte’s Bless & Release practice and facilitator materials.
Through guided reflection, embodied practice, honest conversation, and shared experience, these gatherings create space to explore what we are ready to loosen, express, reimagine, and live differently, while building meaningful relationships over time.
