I’m Brittany Gowan, a life coach and the founder of Pause with Plants. I have 9 years of coaching experience and for 10+ years I’ve grown and developed my practice of connecting daily with nature in New York City, through mindful moments of intentional pause. Consciously adopting a nature-centered lifestyle in city life has supported my positive mental/physical health, how I stay focused and achieve my goals and I can truly say it’s a game changer and has transformed my life.

This personal win led me to want to share my insights and experience with others and in 2018 I founded Pause with Plants.

Pause with Plants teaches you how to continuously retrieve the present moment, by consciously connecting with nature. This practice grows into a powerful life skill that benefits both your mental and physical health and goal achievement. And with my method, I’ll teach you mindful nature-centered tools to intentionally connect to nature which works as a proactive resource to release stress, grow and achieve goals, and support positive well-being.

Pause with Plants integrates research and understanding from my Master of Science in Applied / I-O Psychology, NYU Certification in Organizational and Executive Coaching, athletic training and coaching, and mindfulness practices. 

Connect to the Universal Calm of Nature.

⫸ Whether watching the sun set through sea grass or taking in a forest vista on vacation, or noticing the smell of fresh cut grass, an intentional pause with nature can be powerful. Moments matter and these smaller pieces of larger memories are the ones that we can recall with clarity. Pause with Plants offers a daily practice of natural pauses that can positively impact your life and wellbeing, from work and goal setting to self-love and relationships.
