Yes! I am seeking change and ready to breathe

Meet your Guide JJ ...

Meet your
Guide JJ ...

Hi, I’m Jennifer but most call me JJ! I’m 36 years young, and my heart is bursting with gratitude as I step into the light work I’ve been called to do. This journey has been three years in the making— filled with prayer, waiting, and more prayer. When the clarity finally “landed,” I knew that breath work would become my mission for 2025 and beyond.

My deepest passion is creating a safe, welcoming space for healing. Whether you’re someone completely new to this community or already familiar with breath work, my goal is to help you ascend , let go of limiting thought patterns , release the paralysis of anxiety and depression, and break free from generational traumas . With every breath, we can create freedom, peace, and a renewed sense of self.

I bring a lot of love (and a little fun!) to everything I do. I’m a certified personal trainer, Reiki Level 1 & 2 certified, massage therapist, Thai bodyworker, and reflexologist. I’ve spent seven beautiful years as a private chef and now focus on breath work retreats and world-traveling experiences through MJ Wellness Retreats, a new venture with my amazing husband.

If you’re ready to let go, heal, and step into the next version of yourself , I’d love to hold space for you on this journey. Let’s breathe into freedom together! 💕

Outside of this work, I’m a proud mom of two incredible kids who inspire me every day. Our family also includes a 5-pd ball of fluff and joy, Lula  our Maltipoo, who sometimes joins me in facilitation sessions. Her purpose? To bring as much happiness to others as possible.

frequently asked questions

What should I wear?

Recommend bringing comfortable clothes. We will be sitting and lying during most of the breath work.

Do I need to bring anything?

The following things will make your experience most comfortable: yoga mat, blanket, eye pillow, water bottle, journal for writing, pen, chapstick, pillow and anything else that will make you feel comfortable.

Is there an age limit?

13 years and older is recommended. Provided the conversation and immense relaxation felt during breath work kids under the age of 13 may fall asleep or not have the ability to understand the share aspect after sessions. In any case, if your child is of the age to understand and participate fully they may come.

Is this refundable?

I require a non-refundable fee to secure your spot at the retreat. However, if you cannot attend the retreat due to unforeseen circumstances, I offer a voucher for a future event of equal value. This voucher is transferable, so you can give it to a friend or family member if you cannot attend.

most common fears...

Fear or Judgement

Some women may be hesitant to attend a women's circles because they fear being judged or criticized by other women. However, I believe in creating a safe and supportive space where women can share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment or criticism. Consider it a NO- JUDGEMENT ZONE.

Fear of Vulnerability

Opening up and sharing with others can be a scary and vulnerable experience, especially if you're not used to doing so. I assure you as the facilitator of this AWAKEN Retreat a lot of thought has gone into creating a supportive and nurturing environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself and sharing as much or as little as you like.

Fear of the unknown

It’s completely natural to feel uncertain or even a little nervous about trying something new like breathwork. Stepping into the unknown can feel intimidating, especially when it involves exploring deeper parts of yourself. But here’s the truth: your breath is your safest, most natural tool for healing and growth.

Fear of doing it wrong

Many people worry about not knowing how to breathe correctly or "messing up" the process. The beautiful thing about breathwork is that there’s no right or wrong way to experience it. Every session is unique, and your body naturally knows what it needs. I’ll guide you every step of the way, helping you find a rhythm that works for you. Trust yourself—you can’t get this wrong.

Money- Back Guarantee

I'm confident that you'll love this retreat and the value it provides. However, if you're not 100% satisfied with your experience, I offer a money-back guarantee. Simply let me know within 24 hours of the retreat, and we'll issue a full refund.

Breathwork is a gentle, guided practice where you remain in full control. It creates a safe space for you to explore your emotions, release tension, and reconnect with your body at your own pace. There’s no right or wrong way to experience it—every session is uniquely yours.

Fear of overwhelming emotions

Some people fear that intense emotions might surface during breathwork, and that can feel intimidating. It’s important to know that whatever comes up is something you’re ready to release, even if it feels big. I’ll hold a safe and supportive space for you, and you’re always in control of how deeply you engage. Breath work is about healing at your own pace, with compassion for yourself.

Fear of physical sensations

Breath work can create new sensations in your body—tingling, warmth, or muscle tensions. It's normal for that to feel unusual at first. These sensations are completely natural and a sign that your body is responding to the breath. I’ll explain what to expect beforehand so there are no surprises, and I’ll be there to guide you through it. You’re in a safe, grounded space to explore these feelings without worry.

If fear is holding you back, remember this: the first step is simply showing up. On the other side of that unknown is freedom, clarity, and peace. You’re stronger than you think, and I’ll be here every step of the way to guide and support you. Let’s face the unknown together and see the possibilities it holds.

Breath work with JJ was fun and a very unique experience for me I broke my right ankle 3 week prior to attending her breath work . I had some minor purple bruises coming out as it was trying to heal . During the session with JJ I had a strong heat sensation in my Right ankle so I loosened up my brace to let it breathe . It was surprising for me because up until this point I never felt sensation in this area . After her breathwork feeling super relaxed and very zen I slept amazing !! Next morning bruised on my right feet almost disappear. I would highly recommend a class with her it was amazing and life changing !

This was the beginning of a therapy session that I never knew I needed. I didn't realize all the life experiences I was still holding onto that I was able to let go of. Prior to this I was emotionally stressed due to finances, and through breath work my mind cycled through all the phases in my life where I had way less, and was still able to overcome, and hit new levels. My inner voice started to speak louder and stated that abundance continues to shower me, because it's placed all around me, and then I vividly started to see all the people I have come into contact with over the years that have shared advice, opportunities, love, and support. Through breathwork I could feel the emotions of my mom since birth, and her emotions hurt, but then it softened and became happy. There was another time
during this experience when I was brought back to pregnancies that couldn't manifest through, and I kept hearing "the boy, the boy, the boy, the boy watches and protects you." Mind you I never got past 9 weeks to find out who, or what any of them were. So again this was the beginning of a therapy session I never knew I needed. I feel
like with all that goes on in our daily lives breath work is something that would help so many of us through our life cycles. After the session I felt like I received a reset to handle people, and things with more grace, and even more patience.
