Earthed Intimacy

I have learned to live this truth every day and now I get to teach it.

If there are two lineages that have shaped me and my work deeply they are Taoism and Ta**ra.

I’ve studied them both in books and have learned from teachers who have lineage of their own but more importantly I’ve let them move through my body over the last 25 years.

My grandmother actually was the first person to introduce me to the Tao back in my teens as I watched her move through her tai chi practice. I ended up getting the yin/yang symbol tattooed on my arm the moment I turned 18 and have been called back to it time and time again.

It shows me that when I soften into the currents of life the way reveals itself. Effortless, natural, yin and yang weaving together in every thing. That balance and softness is my strength.

My fascination with Ta**ra came a little later, I remember secretly reading my parents friends books when I got the chance and my relationship with this practice has taught me that everything….. desire, grief, pleasure, conflict can be a pathway to awakening.

Both traditions recognise polarity as a key to intimacy and both have allowed me to see physical intimacy as a door into the divine.

This is the ground my work is rooted in. A body of practice where you are met as whole being and where intimacy, healing and embodiment are not separate but one living stream.

Tao gives me patience and trust in the natural timing of a clients body and its process or a relationship as it unfolds into truth. Ta**ra gives me the fire to step into intensity with another and to embrace the whole messy spectrum of being human.

They’re the ground I keep returning to in my life, my relationships and in every session I offer.
