A Conversation with Isabel Barreto, Amy Keller and Jeana Donovan
Isabelâs commitment to her practice will inspire you. How sheâs kept it up will confront you. In her conversation with me and Jeana youâll hear her dispel the myths of conscious and gentle parenting, why she believes in Meditation for Mamas, how a 40-day personal experiment changed her and her childrenâs lives, as well as the value in setting strong boundaries, owning your energy and being the leader⊠whether you want to or not.
Like a great leader, she shares the tools to begin your own daily practice while holding you accountable.On a personal note... we loved the way she described our children as the living breathing patterns of our own subconscious.
About Isabel BarretoIsabel Barreto is a movement, breathwork and meditation teacher, a folk herbalist, and intuitive earth medicine woman. Isabel has been applying the technology of Kundalini yoga and meditation through practice in her life for over 20 years. When she gave birth to her first child in 2013, she began to utilize the powerful techniques of breathwork, movement, mantra and meditation as tools for energy management, to curb anxiety, to stay connected to herself and develop a strong inner anchor - she found her practice instrumental to motherhood. Isabel teaches workshops, works one-on-one with clients, and leads a seasonal 40-day movement, breathwork, meditation experience container that aligns with the rhythm of the lunar and earth cycles.

Wildflowersâ lyrics
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel freeRun away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with youYou belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel freeRun away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and byYou belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away from your trouble and worry
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong somewhere you feel freeSongwriters: Thomas Earl Petty
