So many women I work with feel like they’re at war with their bodies — but beneath the surface, eating disorders are rarely about food. They’re about safety, control, and belonging.

Through shadow work + somatic therapy, we begin to listen to the body’s messages rather than silence them. Healing starts when we meet the parts that are afraid to be seen.

✨ Inside my yoga and therapy offerings, we move through this work gently —
with the nervous system, not against it.

I offer 2 somatic classes currently. Mondays 6pm for a higher energy class that uses hip hop to help feel into different parts of the body. Wednesdays at 7:30am to use exploration to sense internally.

When I was 8, I sat in front of my classroom with my new haircut —
trying not to cry,
trying to be brave,
terrified of what they’d say.

No one told me then that my worth wasn’t up for debate.
That I didn’t have to earn belonging by looking “right.”

So today, my adult self sits beside her.
I hold her small, shaking hand and whisper —
You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
I’m right here with you.

This is what healing looks like.
Not rewriting the past —
but finally giving the little one inside you the love, safety, and protection she always needed.

🫶 For anyone still carrying the younger parts of you who learned to hide —
you’re not behind. You’re coming home.

✨ “She tried so hard to be perfect.
To smile through the ache.
To earn love by being good.” ✨

But this time, I (the woman I’ve become) kneel beside her —
and whisper, “You don’t have to prove anything to be loved.”

This is the heart of inner child work.
It’s not about changing who you were —
it’s about meeting the younger you with the care she never received.

Every time you pause, breathe, and offer yourself kindness instead of criticism…
you reparent her.
You teach her what safety feels like. 💫

🫶 To every version of you that had to be strong — she deserves to rest now.

Fear and trust are dance partners.
One pulls away when the other takes the lead —
but both are trying to keep you safe.

Shadow work helps you learn why your fear shows up, and how to trust the parts of you that have forgotten how to feel safe.

In somatic yoga + therapy, we don’t rush the process —
we build safety, curiosity, and compassion for every part of you that’s still in the dark. 🕯️

✨ Did you know your gut is one of the first places stress shows up? ✨

When anxiety or trauma takes over, digestion can feel stuck, fluttery, or heavy. That’s because your gut and brain are constantly chatting through the vagus nerve 🧠🌀

The good news? You can learn to ground your gut with simple practices that soothe both body + mind. 🌿

💡 Try this:
• Place your hands on your belly + breathe slowly
• Press your feet into the floor
• Offer your body kind words like: “I hear you. We’re safe.”
• Move gently (twists, folds, or rocking) to release tension

Your gut isn’t just about digestion — it’s about connection, safety, and healing. 💚

👉 Save this post for when your stomach feels unsettled, and share it with someone who could use a little gut love today.
