Practices for individual & collective healing

My approach

I guide individuals and groups through transformative experiences that foster self-awareness, resilience, and connection.

Embodiment practices are powerful tools for healing that help us reconnect with our bodies, process difficult emotions, and ultimately live with greater presence, awareness, and wholeness. My approach is rooted in the wisdom of integrative health practices that empower you to reconnect with your body, mind, family, and community from a settled, compassionate, and wise nervous system.

“The most radical project we could ever engage in during our lives is the project of embodiment. There is no liberation without the union of mind and body.”

-Lama Rod Owens

Offerings

  • Aromatherapy

    Aromatherapy can be a useful complementary therapy for managing stress, anxiety, and depression, thereby supporting overall mental well-being. As a certified clinical aromatherapist, I can create customized products to support your mental and physical health. These might be a blend of essential oils for a diffuser, face or body cleansers or serums, salves, inhalers, or other topical botanical products.

  • Reiki

    Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive Japanese healing technique that channels universal life energy to promote balance and well-being. Practitioners use their hands to transfer energy to the recipient, which can help reduce stress, alleviate pain, and enhance overall physical and emotional health. Reiki is based on the idea that when our energy is free-flowing and balanced, we are better equipped to heal and maintain optimal health. It's a holistic approach that supports the body's natural healing processes and can be a powerful tool for relaxation. Read more about Reiki here

  • Restorative Yoga/Breathwork

    Restorative yoga and breathwork have a profound impact on the central nervous system, helping to shift the body from a state of stress to one of deep relaxation and healing. In restorative yoga, gentle poses supported by props allow the body to release tension and activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for rest and digestion. This calming effect is enhanced by conscious breathwork, which regulates the heart rate and lowers blood pressure. Together and separately, these practices can soothe the mind, reduce anxiety, and improve overall well-being, offering a powerful antidote to the fast-paced demands of daily life.

  • Mindfulness Meditation

    Mindfulness is a powerful practice of staying in the present moment with loving, nonjudgmental awareness. Mindfulness has gained widespread recognition for its transformative effects on mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Proven benefits of mindfulness include stress reduction, improved focus and concentration, better emotional regulation, increased physical health, pain management, better sleep, and more. I teach mindfulness to groups and individuals.
