Chronic fatigue syndrome also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) is not “just in your head.” A landmark genetic study has uncovered compelling biological evidence that the illness has deep roots in our DNA. Researchers identified eight regions of the human genome that differ significantly between people with and without ME/CFS, with many of these areas tied to immune system function and nervous system signaling.

The DecodeME project, led by the University of Edinburgh alongside patient groups and charities, analyzed genetic data from more than 15,000 ME/CFS patients and over 250,000 healthy controls. The findings suggest certain genetic variants may increase susceptibility by weakening infection-fighting abilities or altering chronic pain pathways. For millions of people living with debilitating fatigue, brain fog, and post-exertional malaise, these results offer long-awaited validation and a new direction for scientific research.

While there’s still no cure or definitive diagnostic test, this is a turning point in how ME/CFS is understood and treated. The results could lay the groundwork for genetic screening, targeted therapies, and deeper studies into why the condition disproportionately affects women and how it differs from illnesses like long Covid. Above all, it’s a powerful step toward ending the stigma and ensuring ME/CFS is recognized as a serious, biologically driven disease. Source: DecodeME Consortium (2025).

Happy Summer Solstice ☀️

On this luminous day of the Summer Solstice ☀️ we pause to honor the longest light, the radiant embrace of Inti (the Sun), and the vibrant fullness of Pachamama (Mother Earth). In this tradition, we invite our bodies; our living, sensing selves to become vessels of awareness, attuned to the cycles of the natural world 🌎

As the sun reaches its peak, we remember our place in the great web of life. We are children of the earth and sky, woven into the fabric of the cosmos. With open hearts, we offer our gratitude and our intentions for the coming cycle, may we walk in balance, in harmony, in loving kinship with all of our relations... the seen and unseen...

I’m a spiritual mystic and ritual holder rooted in ancestral Andean traditions. I approach my cultural energy work through a trauma-informed and ecosomatic lens, honoring the deep connection between body, Earth, and spirit. In the spaces I hold, I invite others into grounded, sacred practices that support emotional clarity, energetic integrity, and soul rememberance.

If you’d like to book a session, feel free to message me on Instagram or visit my website for full details and pricing on all of my offerings.

Disclaimer:
Cord cleansing is not a substitute for psychological therapy or professional mental health support. If you are experiencing intense trauma, have a history of abusive or deeply traumatizing relationships, or are struggling with overwhelming emotional distress, I strongly encourage you to seek help from a licensed therapist or mental health professional. This practice is intended as a supportive, reflective tool—not a clinical intervention.

The wounded story vs the conscious story

When dysregulation hits, that surge of anxiety, the flood of anger, the heavy weight of sadness, well it's like a doorway swings wide open for our wounded stories to rush in. In this heightened state, our nervous system defaults to old protective patterns, making it incredibly challenging to access our conscious intention. The raw intensity of the feeling and the familiar pull of the wounded narrative can overpower our ability to be present, thoughtful, and aligned with our wiser selves. It takes mindful effort and often somatic practices to gently navigate the storm of dysregulation and reclaim our capacity for conscious choice.

A somatic approach helps us to gently bring awareness to these raw wounds. By noticing the physical sensations associated with these triggered states, we can begin to unravel the ingrained patterns. Through mindful movement, breathwork, and interoceptive practices, we create space for the wise self; the part of you connected to resilience, clarity, and inherent wholeness – to re-emerge.
It's not about erasing the wounded parts, but about learning to recognize when they're taking the lead and cultivating the capacity to consciously choose a response from a more grounded, embodied wisdom. We learn to listen to the whispers of the past without letting them drown out the clear voice of our present, wise self.

Our emotions aren't meant to guide us in life, it's meant to teach us in life.
