Grounded Leadership Coaching

Come back to the room on purpose.

You have built a career you respect. People depend on your judgment, and you do not have time to waste.

You know the state you bring into a room sets the pace for everything that follows, and you lead with clarity and integrity when you are present. You need to stay sharp all day, and that takes a toll. By afternoon your mind is on the last meeting or the next one, and the people in front of you can tell.

I coach leaders to come back to the room on purpose. We work one-on-one, in person at my studio in the Bronx or online, and you practice with me each week. In person, you practice on a floor built with a grounding grid, which as far as we know makes my studio the only one like it in New York City.

Timing that comes from your body.

Attention depends on timing, and the timing that matters is the one in your body.

The breath gives us a measure that comes from the body itself, which is why a clock on the wall cannot do this job. At six breaths a minute, you find a pace your body can call home base.

Safety always comes first. Once your body feels safe, it can stop bracing for the next demand, and you can begin to communicate with your body. With a daily practice, you bring your body everything you already know about being a leader.

I’m Ben Alpern. I’ve worked with couples and with people of all ages, each coming in with different needs.

I draw on yoga, Kabbalah and Taoism, explained in plain language and tested on your own body. The body work draws on fascia, tensegrity, breath and flow. The mind work follows a three-part process of creation: thought, thinking, action.

I co-own The Grounded Movement at Inner Space, a yoga studio in NYC. I teach yoga, I’m a reiki master, and I offer QHHT hypnotherapy.

How it works.

1. Fill out the coaching form. Tell me what brought you here, and whether you want to apply now or talk first.
2. I get back to you. If you want to talk first, we set up a call. I tell you which program fits, and you decide.
3. We begin. We set your weekly session time, in person or online, and start.
