ready to heal your stress-driven habits?

So many self-improvement technologies actually work against our bodies’ natural systems.
​I teach women to work with your body, gently and sustainably, to ease stress and manage the habits it’s caused. 
Everywhere I go, I talk to women who are struggling to find balance, to make all the pieces in their lives fit. We're busy. We're hurried. And in these stressful circumstances, it's virtually impossible not to end up leaning on coping mechanisms that we're aware are ultimately making things worse. We don't want to do them, we promise ourselves we'll stop (tomorrow)...but we always come back. Or we start good behaviors we feel great about, but we can't maintain them, leaving us with the same sense of frustration and failure. 

hello.

I'm Anena Hansen.
​
As a trauma educator, coach, and person in long-term recovery from substance addiction, I help women uncover the nervous system patterns that drive their bad habits and use their feminine strengths to build better ones. 

​Our bodies are the source of powerful, built-in capacities for healing that are often overlooked. My work uses nervous system science to guide women in using their natural strengths to break destructive cycles, manage cravings, and build the safety and calm that true wellness allows. 

want to be a well-sourced woman?

I teach women like you to use your inner resources to heal your stress-driven habits.

coaching

workshops
I offer one-on-one coaching as well as small groups, with a special focus on helping women nurture yourselves and restore your function through inner "self-commitment retreats."
My regular workshop series is geared toward entrepreneurs, but I also offer one-offs in the workplace. I connect women with soft skills you'll wonder how you lived without!

kind words

​"I became aware that I’d been living out adaptive survival patterns that I’d learned in my childhood. Anena helped me understand how to behave from the empowered woman I wanted to be. She held space for me over a full year of grappling with what I wanted. This would be a hard thing to be alone in. What do people do who don’t have an Anena?" - S. I.  ​

“I'm a therapist myself, but my work with Anena helped me TONS. Her nature, her delivery, her phrasing, her clarity, what she made me think about with her questions, has moved mountains for me. I walk away from every single session going daaamn, she’s good!" - T. B.
