In the last year I have definitely been honing in on my energy work skills. The progress is honestly wild and you won’t believe the results I can get after even just one session with a client. Yes, even physical ones when “all I do” is energy healing.

However, I am always going to be body focused.

While working with the subtle body and conversing with source, guides, angels and whoever wants to chime in is amazing, I am deeply aware that we are still in this human, 3D experience.

I spent years studying the human body, its physiology, anatomy, dysfunctions, then the nervous system and fascia itself. And I’m not done. This is where I can anchor my energetic work into.
Tangible, physical structures that keep us both rooted while zoom into your body, so later I can zoom out into the field and listen to guidance.

I talk to your body, I listen to it. And I only ever go at its pace.
It shows me where you hold tension. It shows me where you are hiding all the parts of you that were hurt, or didn’t have the chance or safety to be expressed. It shows me where ancestral stories get stuck within you, trying to repeat themselves. It shows me where it’s ready to let go, so I help it do so. It shows me where it wants to be witnessed, held and listened to.
And I kindly oblige!

I never work faster than the pace your body sets. I understand I have to earn its trust, just like in any other relationship. I respect when it requires time, where it needs more space.

The thing is, your physical body is by default a magical feat of engineering, and the power running it is the power of source. Your fascia works off electricity, in part created through movement and tension, in part through energetically interacting with the world.

And this is why I work the way I do. It’s all connected. We’re all both physical and energetic beings, it’s just how it is.

I’m going to preface this caption with saying that this is by no means a high-horse type of situation.
I understand that this is a tool meant to be used, and the boundaries of using it can only be set by you and your values.

This might not be necessary, but I am feeling compelled to let it be known -
Any content, workshop material, any future meditations recordings or online programs are and will be created by me and me only.

I have had this on my mind for a while. I’ve had conversations with friends about it. And if you don’t know me, I really try to never say never (because, duh, I might change my mind!), but I really have a strong feeling about this particular topic.

When the internet first became global and people had immense information available at their fingertips, rather than slaving for hours over books and articles, the same conversations have been had - I’m sure.
Where is the line between your creation that AI helped with, and something created by an inanimate system with the knowledge of all of the internet?
Is AI simply “organizing your thoughts for you” or is it creating them?
Are you asking it questions that you could answer by simply tapping into your inner knowing rather than outsourcing? Are you aware that it’s designed to provide you confirmation bias and information that makes you like it?
Do you know of the environmental impacts of every single answer it provides or silly picture it generates?

If you haven’t been in to see me yet and wondered what a session looks like, here’s a little run down of things work around here :)

The most important thing to remember is that at Anima Soma we always work at your pace. And while I may have a process, I will always take yours and your body’s needs into consideration.

If you have questions about my Anima, Soma and Anima Soma sessions, let me know!
I also offer distance enrgy healing sessions, and private meditations and sound baths!

Reach out in DM or check out my website - link in profile

See you soon!

So go ahead, try it out!

Changing your mind.

One of my favourite responses to likes/dislikes/preferences is “I always reserve the right to change my mind”

And boy, have I changed my mind during my life time.

Most recently about marriage.

As far as I can remember I NEVER wanted to get married. Let’s just say I haven’t seen the best examples of marriages growing up, nor did I see many that were long lasting.  I also had the belief that saying “I do” binds you to a person, almost as property, and I could never do that, I’m a free bird that can’t be caged!

Fast forwards to my relationship with James, the many years of him patiently standing by me, giving me space and trust as I reworked myself over and over in therapy, expanding, changing, shifting.
I knew my heart was always keeping a wall to the fortress, not FULLY committed, not fully open. This might have felt safe for a certain time in my life, but then it started feeling like I was cutting my experience of love short. Unable to fully feel the enormity of all-encompassing love to source, yourself, a partner, friends, community, nature. It felt like a hinderance.

So I worked my ass off in therapy, faced all the versions of me who thought true connection was unsafe, who felt let down when attempted vulnerability in the past. I also allowed myself to truly RECEIVE, which is not something that comes easily to me.

I’m not done with this work, but the changes are incredible.

So, do yourself a favour, and always leave room to change your mind.
You have no idea where life can take you, don’t get stuck for the sake of sticking to principles that you may have grown out of.
