Feeling overstimulated, scattered or stuck in endless scrolling? Into the Quiet is a gently guided journey back to yourself. Writer–photographer Erika Rodriguez reframes distraction as a protective nervous-system response, then leads you through meditation, journaling, somatic movement and a closing vow ceremony. You’ll map your own “void-fillers,” practice meeting inner noise without judgment, and craft a personalized presence protocol you can rely on long after the workshop ends.
Perfect for: Anyone craving deeper presence, emotional steadiness and intuitive connection—no meditation or movement experience needed. Inclusive of all genders.
Highlights:
- Learn how distraction serves as a nervous system protection, not a personal failure
- Map your personal void-filling behaviors and what they may be covering up
- Practice listening to the voice within without judgment or urgency
- Experience somatic integration through movement, stillness, and breath
- Close with a sacred vow and mantra to carry presence into everyday moments
Take-home: Reflection booklet, Presence Practice sheet, and 30-Day Commitment Template.
What you gain:
- Build emotional capacity to stay with discomfort, loneliness, and vulnerability
- Begin to replace compulsive habits with simple, soulful rituals of presence
- Deepen your relationship with intuition through stillness and inner witnessing
- Leave with a personalized presence protocol and practices you can return to
- Remember that you are not broken—you are becoming more available to yourself
