*These services may be booked individually or in combination as well! I am a certified Trauma-informed Tantric Yoga Teacher. This means I act more as a guide in your yoga journey than a Guru. My teaching method assumes trauma is present in my students, and I take steps to make the space safe, supportive and empowering. This yoga is not about perfecting postures or sculpting your butt (though these things are okay) but it is more about getting into your body, slowly and gently working out trauma that is stored there, uncovering layers of illusion to rediscover your true self. I offer choices and variations to the postures to accommodate many different bodies. You are encouraged to listen to your body and make any modifications you require. A class may also include pranayama, meditation and/or yoga nidra. The benefits of yoga are too many to list, but it is becoming well known that the practice has a "whole person" healing effect on the mind, body and soul. Breathwork is a powerful practice for bringing you into the present moment, improving your mood and energizing your body through oxygenation. It is good for your lungs, your blood, brain and vital organs. There are many different methods with different effects for relaxation, for grounding, to deepen meditation or even releasing DMT! Meditation is well known to ease anxiety, calm the mind and improve focus among a million other benefits. It is a misconception that meditation is about having “no thoughts”. There are thousands of different meditation techniques to suite anyones temperament, and it can be very fun! Yoga Nidra is not hypnosis, but a state where the body is asleep while the mind is fully awake and aware. This state of awareness without the body allows for deep exploration of the many layers of your emotional, subtle and etherial bodies. It is deeply relaxing, and many discoveries and healing can be had, and the effects can lost days or weeks. 45 minutes of yoga nidra is equivalent to 4 hours of deep sleep! Shamanic Reiki involves universal lifeforce energy work with shamanic tools of empowerment. Very relaxing and gentle. Your job is to just relax while I assist you in moving, welcoming or removing energies from your body and field. Emotions can surface for processing, energetic blocks can be removed or transformed. I am certified in Usui Levels 1 and 2, Holy Fire 3, Shamanic Reiki Level 1 and Intuitive Rebirth Method. Cord Cutting Ceremonies can be very powerful for letting go of past relationships, whether romantic, familial, or abusive. Sometimes even if we have cut ties, there are these energetic cords keeping you attached to people (even if they have left this planet) and these cords can suck your vitality. In cord cutting, we set intentions, meditate for a short time to drop in to your subtle body where we search out the cords to be cut. Acceptance, gratitude and forgiveness are involved in this process. Guided Shamanic Journeying is a process of using your imagination to journey within yourself to gain insight into whatever it is you are working on. We set intentions and I help you get into a very relaxed state. I play a drum and guide you into your journey in the beginning, and then its up to you to let go into the experience. Journeying can be very healing in exploring metaphorical manifestations of our wounding, negative thought patterns and soul purpose. Inner Child Work is the process of meeting with your younger self to give them what they needed during times of neglect, traumatic events or other times wounding occurred. This can be a very healing process, as many of our negative patterns in adulthood (addiction, self-sabotage, codependency) can stem from our childhood. Generally, we will work with a negative pattern, trauma response or trigger, then we will journey inside to find your child self who expressed this pattern for your protection. We create a very safe space to observe the child in the situation, then you are empowered to intervene and give the child what they needed in that moment to feel safe, loved and secure. This can be as simple as giving them a lollypop and some reassuring words, or it could be an elaborate rescue. Plant Medicine Ceremonies are potent containers for shifting your energy, processing emotional baggage and gaining deep insights into your healing. The plant medicines I serve are Sananga, Hapé and Sacred Cacao, all from the Amazon, all prepared and prayed over by the humble tribes of South America. The proceeds from these medicines benefit the tribes and the restoration and protection of the rain forests! These medicines can be worked with separately or together, in combination with healing sessions and other ceremonies.
-Sananga is made from the roots of an amazonian bush. It’s a liquid that is dropped into the eyes. This medicine is very potent for moving stagnant energy in the body. It brings clarity and spaciousness to the mind, and can lift that dark cloud that sometimes follows us around. It also improves eyesight, especially seeing in the dark. It has an uncomfortable sting that lasts 5-7 minutes, but it is well worth it.
-Hapé, also called Rapeh, is a blend of very finely ground herbs, seeds, and ashes from sacred plants/trees that is blown into your nose. There are hundreds of blends all with different effects, but generally Hapé will deepen meditative states, increase insight, bring wisdom to the surface, reveal subconscious undercurrents of negative self-talk. It can bring balance to your energy centers (chakras) and bring a centered, grounded feeling of peacefulness. Initially, there is a slight discomfort, similar to getting water up your nose, which lasts for less than a minute, followed by the experience of the blend. Trip-sitting and integration. Many people are beginning to discover the amazing transformational and healing benefits of psychedelics like magic mushrooms and others for depression, anxiety and PTSD. While I absolutely cannot and will not provide you with these medicines, nor assist in procurement, what I can do for you is help you prepare for your experience, create a safe container, and sit with you as a gentle and compassionate guide. Afterwards, I help you with the most important part of a psychedelic journey, the integration. I assist you here with a personalized practice and 3 followup calls.
