The Pathway to Peace: Leaving Anxiety & Perfectionism Behind
AN 8-WEEK PLAN for FINDING PEACE in a FRANTIC WORLD
With Maureen O’Connell, LCMHC
“Everyday life is so frantic and full of troubles that we have largely forgotten how to live a joyful existence. We try so hard to be happy that we often end up missing the most important parts of our lives.”
– Dr. Mark Williams
Embark on a transformative journey towards inner peace with my 8-week Course, “The Pathway to Peace: Leaving Anxiety & Perfectionism Behind.”
Go from “Head Living” to “Present Living.”
Throughout the virtual 8-week course with 1:1 coaching sessions, you will hear my story of transformation from anxious-stressed mom/therapist to calm, peaceful and present (preview My Story here). I will teach you 15 core principles and give you weekly coping skills in the form of mindfulness audio exercises, such as my “Peace Pause” one minute audio to regain your peace. My audios are designed to train your mind to be more focused, present, and less prone to anxiety and stress.
Each week delves into essential principles and coping strategies, empowering you to tame your anxious mind, embrace present living, cultivate curiosity and compassion, and break free from the cycle of anxiety. I will share how my life was profoundly changed by each of these crucial components.
By the end of the course, you will emerge transformed, equipped a new mindset and coping skills to build resilience to anxiety and stress, including how to best cope with and prevent panic attacks.
Not only will you gain greater control over your anxious mind but you will be enjoying your new life of Present Living: having control over the wandering mind, experiencing minimal worry and rumination, being an imperfectionist who is kind towards self while peacefully solving life’s problems and presently enjoying the moments (Maureen O’Connell, LCMHC).
In my 8-Week Course, I have pulled together the best of what I know for how to move past anxiety, stress, and perfectionism. You will learn cutting-edge mindfulness-based skills that I call “game-changers because they are brain-changers.”
Pathway to Peace Testimonials
“Going through this course has allowed me to understand what anxiety actually is once and for all and not let it rule my life. I now have a tool box to use to navigate situations and thoughts that once overpowered my life.”
“Anxiety has been an obstacle to joy since childhood. The coping skills in Pathway to Peace take practice and time to master, but I can see positive improvement in the way I think, feel, and live.”
“I sought out therapy with Maureen about a year ago to gain peace in my life after some difficult trials. In the past, I had relied on spiritual direction to overcome emotional challenges. Maureen helped me to understand that emotional and psychological health are separate and apart from spiritual freedom and progress. I started to recognize the powerful impact of past wounds in my life and the resulting unhealthy coping mechanisms, behaviors and anxiety that only therapy could address. Through Maureen’s guidance and therapy I began to understand my “anxious mind” and its effects. By talking through not only the wounds I experienced but also the faulty thinking generated by my anxious mind I began to truly heal. When Maureen invited me to participate in her “Pathway to Peace” eight-week program I jumped at the chance. The program has heightened my self-awareness and provided me with practical skills to calm my anxious mind and find true peace. Take it from someone who didn’t realize that she suffered from anxiety – we all experience it and most of us don’t have the awareness or skills to calm our anxious minds in this hectic, pressure-filled world. Be kind to yourself. Take time to discover the beautiful person you are and live the best life possible – the life you were created to live.”
“This program has been wonderful. It has allowed me to look at many of my stressors in a different light as well as show myself grace. The tools provided will help me well into the future.”
“Pathway to Peace is a concise and practical course on overcoming anxiety, which provides various tools for your mental health toolbox. I have found it very helpful to have this step by step guide which provides information and exercises in a manageable regimen for a busy lifestyle.”
