Your Team's Wellness Journey Starts Here.

At Music City Mindfulness, we transform corporate events and retreats into meaningful wellness journeys that enhance team cohesion, creativity, and overall wellbeing.

Transform Corporate Wellness From Obligation to Anticipation

In today's demanding business environment, wellness shouldn't feel like another task on your team's to-do list. Our approach transforms what might be seen as a corporate obligation into a genuinely restorative experience that team members eagerly anticipate.

Our Unique Approach

At Music City Mindfulness, we specialize in creating peaceful, immersive moments that allow your team to truly decompress and reconnect. Founded by Joanna Barbera, a transformational guide with 25+ years of experience, our practice combines mindfulness, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing to create truly unique corporate wellness experiences.

Why Teams Love Working With Us:

  • No pressure to "perform" meditation correctly or achieve specific outcomes

  • Adaptable to any experience level - everyone feels welcomed and comfortable

  • Genuinely restorative experiences, not just another corporate checkbox

  • Simple techniques they can actually use when facing workplace challenges

  • Creates lasting team connection and improved workplace culture

Let us help transform your corporate wellness initiative from an obligation into the highlight of your team's calendar—a genuinely rejuvenating experience they'll thank you for.

Our Most Exciting Addition:
Team Soul Song




Ready to take your team experience to the next level?

Our Team Soul Song process is quickly becoming our most requested offering - and for good reason.
After your team has connected through mindfulness practices, we guide you through a collaborative songwriting experience that transforms your collective wisdom, shared challenges, and team strengths into an original song. No musical experience needed - just authentic voices and open hearts. Your team walks away with a professionally recorded anthem that captures this moment in your journey together, creating a lasting bond and a soundtrack you can return to whenever you need to remember your shared purpose and power.
