While biologically this is by no means beginning of a new year, the numbers changing makes you recap some stuff.

In no particular order, this was my year:

Workshops, gatherings, community - so many opportunities to share, lead, teach and be taught

So much inner alchemy - through therapy, true vulnerability in friendships, choosing and to really see parts of myself that I’ve neglected, tapping into layers of gried I never felt before, tuning back to joy, love and trust tiem and time and time again

Connecting to things so much bigger than myself, humbly accepting lessons and teachings, finding my magic and honing into my purpose even more

Building my dream work space, where everyone can be safely held exactly as they are. Where I can work my magic, find my peace and create

Learning how to navigate a loving relationship through burn out, seasons of changed priorities all while finally beginning to feel like I know myself and know what I truly want

Learning patience and grace with all parts of myself, so I can do th same for others

Learning patience and trust in the pace of things unfolding

Learning first hand that you can have everything, but not at the same time

Living in daily gratitude for this place that I get to call home, the love I get to experience from my love and dog child, spirit guides and source itself

This year was tough and hard; and raw and humbling; and beautiful and bountiful; and busy and too much; and sweet and slow

I feel deep in my bones 2026 is the uear I get to catch a breath and truly shine

A year of making my physical body a priority after my spiritual and personal endeavors of the past year

A year of showing myself and the world what I’m capable of whe I’m not scared

A year of being my fun, weird, creative, nerdy, magial self without trying to make myself small again

I can’t wait to start showing you what I have planned!

But for now, I’m still choosing a little bit of slowness

2025 recap
Spiritual growth
Personal development
Energy work
Somatic bodywork

And in that connection is where the magic lies.

It’s not me healing you, per se.

It’s that for - likely - the first time you can understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along. What it’s been holding in order to help you push through and carry on.

But it can only hold so much before it start spilling all over the place. Not in obvious ways at first.
Subtle shifts in energy, mysterious aches, random symptoms or thoughts popping up.

Then, if not tended to, it will start getting louder and louder. Chronic pain, migraines, depression, emotional overwhelm, auto-immune diseases. It will bring you to your knees if it has to.

Just like you feel frustrated when you are misunderstood, so does your body.

Would you like to understand? Together we can create a space where you can listen and try to understand, so that you can let go of what needs to go. Or tend to what needs your love and grace. Or, if nothing else, simply witness yourself through a different lens.

So maybe from now on rather than introducing myself as a body and energy worker, I will just call myself a translator, decoder of sorts.

And for full transparency, the a-ha moment was thanks to voice notes from and another self-employed meltdown that had me on the floor asking my guides for help

We think that just because we have a body, we automatically are in relationship with it. But that's not true very often.

A true relationship is built on trust and respect, and we are living in times where we're meant to work in opposition to that - especially when it comes to our bodies.

When is the last time you ignored a hunger pang because you had to finish a task?

How often do you feel frustrated when you get sick right after arriving at your vacation spot?

How much frustration do you feel when a pain shows up in your body "out of nowhere"?

Yes, there were likely times in your life when being in relationship with your body didn't feel safe or wasn't in line with the need of survival.

Re-establishing such a connection takes time, patience and grace.

It doesn't have to start with grand therapies, shifts or changes.

It can be as easy as saying "I see you"
the next time you feel a big emotion that's uncomfortable, when you feel pain, or even -or maybe especially - when you feel numb and overwhelmed.
__________________________________

When working with clients I might be the facilitator of change, yes.
But ultimately my role is simply to help you communicate with your body, energetic field and your true essence.

To create a space within you where you don't have to respond from auto-pilot, but be able to witness with kindness what comes forward.

To allow you to feel the extent of the knowing and power you hold within. A knowing that makes you feel empowered, where external validation is not necessary.
That's my intention for you.

If you're feeling a stirring within, something wanting to be heard, Anima Soma Wellness is your place.

This is a visual representation of what your body wants to feel like.

The structured water in your fascia, electric charge in your cells, lymph in lymphatic vessels and nodes, blood flowing through veins and arteries, your thoughts and emotions, your whole body movement. Life force, energy, chi, ki, kundalini or whichever name you prefer to use.

All of it thrives on flow. And there can be so many road blocks along the way.

Dehydration, lack of varied movement, negative thoughts, energetic blockages, lack of contact with your purpose.

All of these can be resolved with simple (but not always easy) solutions.

Simple, but not easy, as it involves devotion.

Not perfection, but devotion. To yourself. It’s about understanding what makes your body run and tending to the inner flow.

Myofascial release, lymphatic body work, somatic lens when looking at physical symptoms, energy clearing and balancing. This is the crossroads where my work lives.

Both/and. Both the physical and the energetic. They are not seperate, ever. Some might even argue that any physical symptom has an energetic root cause.

This is the essence of Anima Soma. Soul and Body.

Treating one but never neglecting the other. Looking at your whole human experience to find more space within, relief and a sense empowerment.

If this sounds like something you’ve been waiting for, let’s work together.

Hear ye, hear ye!

Finally, I can let you all know that Distance Energy Healing sessions are GO!

This is a great option for anyone who doesn’t live in the Comox Valley area, or for whatever reason prefers to receive energy work from the comfort of their own home.

All the same elements of my energy work sessions are included, the grounding meditation, followed by targeted energy healing and re-alignment, finishing off with gentle sound healing and channeled, intuitive messages specifically for you.

This is so exciting for me, as it allows me to provide my services to anyone with internet access, no matter where in the world you live.

After the session you will receive a PDF file with the touch points from the session - this is going to be useful as sometimes a lot of things come through and the relaxed brain doesn’t always retain everything.

Fun fact, I am fluent in Polish, so this is also a service I can provide to Polish native speakers that maybe prefer communication in their primary language, or anyone who doesn’t speak English.

If you have any questions regarding distance healing, shoot me a DM or comment down below, I will happily answer them.

Today, I’m offcially 39. The last birthday with a 3 in front.

People ask how I feel about it, and honestly?

I LOVE IT

I have never felt more like me, with access to all the parts and grace towards all of the shades of grey within me (or most, still working on some spots)

This past year has seen a lot of good times, times alone, times with friends, times with my loving partner and sweet dog.

This past year has also seen a lot of tears, doubts and fears as I worked through limiting beliefs, let myself finally feel grief that I was scared of my whole life.

This past year has seen many hours working with clients, learning, thinking, meditating and receiving - more of growing into myself, the service I can provide and receiving-evaluating priorities. Anima Soma Wellness has moved into my own space that allowed me to move and work within it as I was intended to - my way.

This past year has seen more joy and play, something that hasn’t always come to me easily, especially when I stopped depending on substances to get me there.

This past year has been the best year. And the heaviest. As they tend to be, when you’re growing out of a current skin and not quite fitting into the new one.

And that’s life, so that’s ok.

I feel incredibly grateful for the people in my life, for the place I live in, for the priviliges and opportunities I get to experience. I’m grateful fro every person I got to work with, assisting them on the way to finding themselves.

Here’s to 39!

*Reminder, you get a whopping 39% off Anima Soma treatments this whole month as a treat from me to you! Booking link is in bio*

There is so much that we ingest on a daily basis.

Between the world news, endless email and text notifications, IG reels or TikToks grabbing our attention.

There is so much more information readily available at the tip of your fingers. And that’s amazing in so mamy ways!

And also - not everything is meant to be taken in. Maybe not right now, maybe not ever. Not all advice, even if genuinely good, is good for you.

You’re meant to have an opinion on everything, instantly, naming things good or bad. But rarely are things are sinple as that, everything carries nuance.

Our cups are full to the brim nowadays, so it’s time to get more mindful with what you let fill it.

Take a beat before applying anything to yourself, develop a relationship with your body that will allow you to discern whether or not something is for you or if it’s meant to pass you.

Heck, the same applies with this very post!

And if it feels like a relationship with your body like that is a foreign concept and you don’t know where to start, grab a seat and let’s fogure it out together.

Shifts in my work are happening and I’m seeing how much need for building inner discernment and capacity is needed, so I’m making it a priority when working with people.

Sessions with me revolve around creating the groundedness, space within and connecting to your inner knowing.
