I have been hosting sessions with the awesome Sahir House, for the Many Hands One Heart Group since September 2023, including: somatics, breathwork and meditation. In these classes we use healing tools to create a conversation with our nervous systems, to find ways to be more self-resourced in the world. We can’t ever fully heal from living in a capitalist system. More than meditation, affirmations and yoga, you need safety and freedom to be well. My work is trauma informed and focused on creating safe containers for our mind, body and soul. I hope to improve mental health and for others to feel a sense of embodiment and belonging.

‘I invite you to take 3 deep breaths and tune into your senses, how are you feeling? All feelings are welcome here.’ Hi, my name is Moon! I am a...

I offer my gratitude that I, a white, disabled, q***r, neurodivergent body in the west, get to benefit from the ancient Indian teachings of Yoga and help others heal with this practice. It's time we use yoga as a tool for liberation, for bringing people together in community and using yoga as a means of healing for all. Where yoga isn't accessible for certain communities, we need to make those spaces accessible. Before I transitioned, I was lucky enough to have found yoga as a healing tool for my mental health. However since coming out as q***r, I have personally experienced how holistic spaces in general aren't fully accessible for the LGBTQ+ community. This post explains why. This post was a long time in the making and partially inspired by post on why q***r yoga is important! They are an incredible q***r yogi go and follow them and show them support!!!

I will be starting free guided meditations on my instagram lives, and if people can't make them they will be saved to my IGVT. Share this with anyone you feel would benefit!

💙Love Letter to Prestatyn Sea🌊

Dear Prestatyn Sea,

This is my love letter to you. Thank you for always being here for me, when I need you most. I love your depth and how every time I come to you, I and you have changed, yet again. I love how you reflect the blue atmosphere of the sky as my blue eyes drink you in. I love the sound your ocean waves make, you are so soothed and sure in your energy. I love your expansiveness and how you are home to many living creatures and birds who sit on your surface. You are hypnotising and magnetic. You remind me of the connectedness of it all, being lulled by the moon. Thank you for holding space for my depth, without judgement or shame. Thank you for showing up in my dreams with lessons in my subconscious. Thank you for catching me off guard and cheekily splashing me with the play of it all! I love you, sea. you are my safe place. You are the space I come to when I wish to come home to myself, beyond all the conditioning. I find God in you, you empty and clear my mind and soothe my soul. I see my depths reflected in your waters and I am held in my own infinite nature. How I love you, is the love I wish to hold for myself and others. unashamedly, radically, courageously. Thank you for teaching me, sea. Just as your tides are pulled by the cosmos, I will always come back to you. love Moon 🌙

Listening to needs and learning how to communicate them comes easily for some people and is difficult for others, especially when we have experiences trauma. Learning about this practice has deepened my connections with those around me and helps me hold space with more freedom for people to honour their needs. This is a practice of listening, consent and boundaries. Our boundaries teach others how they can love us and teach us how we can love and accept ourselves.

A poem by Amy Sophia Marashinsky

Brigid

Let me come to you
through the mists
through the fire
through the plants
through the deep flowing wells
with ideas
visions
word
music beyond the tips of your ears
Let me move you
Enliven you
Stimulate you
till your perspective shifts
and your mind/body/spirit explodes
and you are left standing
in the wake of what has been revealed
and life feels very sweet

PERSPECTIVE

We get so caught up in our day to day lives. Seeing the world from a different angle really helps to clear the mind, and to zoom out and see the bigger picture. Honouring other people's perspectives helps us to find empathy also.

If we are new to healing spaces it can be really scary going into group situations. As someone who is neurodivergent, q***r and disabled, I have built an awareness of what it means to listen to our body's needs. I am someone who wants to hold space for the multifaceted spectrum of the human experience. I want to meet YOU directly where you're at. If you need someone to hold space to cry, or to process difficult emotions, I don't shy away from that.

🌙FULL MOON IN LEO ♌️✨

Everyone in nature has a part to play. There is no hierarchy, we are all important, we all matter. Some of us were born to shine like the sun, not in a way that makes you more special, but in a way that shines light to sustain life, to inspire, to uplift, to plant seeds of hope into the hearts of all. Our hearts beat for the same purpose of love and connection. Which is why, when in society there are voices that aren’t heard in the dark, we must shine a light on them. Give those voices space to grow and flourish. When we all grow in ways that are unique to us, meeting our specific needs and conditions, we create an ecosystem. To meet community needs is the gardening of the ecosystem. We all feed one another whilst still staying true to our own unique roots.

To get to love one another is a gift, for as the sun sets each day so will the stage that is your life, end.

Burn away what no longer serves.

Shine because it is your soul. Shine because you have no choice but to shine. Shine, fearing not if eyes cannot meet your rays. Your light is not to be looked at for validation. You have so much light and sometimes you don’t know what to do with it. Of course, I am made of light so I must be looked at? I must use all of these rays, there’s so many of them and they have to go somewhere? This will happen inevitably, but the true lesson is how to beam light from your heart, so the light may reach the spaces that need it most. Light has its place, use it tenderly and be careful not to burn yourself out.

To shine is to experience joy, pure joy and pure bliss!!!! Your light is pure potentiality

“When you are hugging a tree, you are hugging yourself…” Ram Dass

Can we dream about a life we have never experienced? Q***r ecology gives us possibility. To sit in transformation, all there is in transformation. To be ourselves in a world that doesn’t always accept us, is radical. To exist as your truest self, is radical.

I have practiced morning movement medicine for years, taking inspiration from the ancient practice of yoga, and having a dance background. This practice is a means of dying and being reborn into the day again. It's the path to releasing built up trauma in the body and standing in my power. Throughout all my changes in life, all my mental breakdowns, the practice is always there, ever evolving and changing to meet my ever changing needs.
