Because true well-being doesn’t come from stuff—it comes from connection, community, and a loving relationship with yourself.Connect with Jeff here:Reclaiming the Sacred Ready to Reclaim your Sacred by sitting in stillness?31 Days of Stillness is a 31 Day self-paced mini-program that will take you from overwhelm to clarity.Follow Lianne on IG @liannemcaughey
