Seasonal Small Groups

Gardening the Mind

I run 4 to 6 small groups per year, exclusive to Primal Trust™ members. No groups run during the summer months. New dates will be announced later in the summer.

A Live Small-Group Series

Grow the inner conditions where calm can take root

Gardening the Mind is a small, live group for people who want to shift out of stress and survival mode, and create the inner conditions where calm, joy, safety and resilience can grow.

Rather than forcing change, we work like gardeners: tending the soil, removing the weeds and, most importantly, planting and nurturing what we want to grow in our garden. You’re invited to show up as you are, and let change unfold through care rather than effort.

How the group unfolds

Each week, we gather live in a small circle and explore a clear theme through guided practice and reflection.

  • Recorded EFT tapping sequences aligned with each weekly theme
  • Recorded meditations to support integration between sessions
  • Simple, printable reflections and practices you can return to
  • All materials shared privately after each session, available forever

Topics we explore

  • Understanding why the brain becomes stuck in survival and how we can shift it
  • Cultivating self-kindness and compassion
  • Cultivating joy and playfulness
  • Cultivating an attitude for gratitude

The ‘inner garden’ practice opened a completely new connection with myself. Creating it brought deep relaxation, self-trust, and a sense of possibility I hadn’t felt before.

Gardening The Mind Participant

What participants are saying

Jonatan creates a space that feels genuinely safe, calm, and supportive. Just hearing his voice helps my nervous system settle.
Gardening the Mind helped shift my default state from fear and sadness toward noticing what’s good and supportive in my life. That alone has been a powerful change.
The practices were simple but powerful. Even on low-energy days, the short meditations and EFT felt accessible.
