All too often staying open is praised as a mark of a highly evolved person. Learning how to open our channels to the ancestors, to our own creativity, attuning to others thoughts, feelings, and needs is a skill that is greatly needed in our world.

However, many of us highly sensitive people have not learned how to close our channels, and we remain open far beyond our capacity and what is beneficial for our body.

This simple practice of closing our energy channels is one of the things I teach in my somatic coaching. As a highly sensitive person learning that I can close my channels just by 20, 30, 40 or 50%. This offers me an internal state of balance and refuge in social settings where I can easily be inundated by too much information or energy that may not be to my best and highest good. This discernment is a practice, so be gentle with yourself. Play with creating a sense of warmth and connection with your own energy system is one of the best ways you can care for yourself.

I am taking two new clients in October for my somatic coaching. If you’re interested please schedule a free insight call and see if we are a fit.

Being held hostage by other peoples nervous system’s is something that is rarely talked about. Yet it is everywhere. We are being held hostage by: the Internet, the news media, and the threat responses of our beloved’s nervous system when they have a stressful day.

Threat responses are a natural part of our biological nervous system. However, developing behaviors, personalities, and being stuck in a specific threat response can truly damage relationships.

The key to freedom is first understanding our nervous system and the qualities of each of our threat responses and how to anticipate and normalize when they happen. We do not need to have more shame around them. We need to have more understanding and tools in order to regulate our nervous system.

If you have survived trauma, or are living with someone who has had significant trauma, you will understand how important it is to have the somatic and available body tools that are not limited to talk therapy. Tools that are personal and can help you in the moment create a coherent, calm, grounded, clear, flexibility, and compassionate relationship with yourself and others.

So if you find yourself being held hostage by the world, your own nervous system or someone you love the best way to find freedom is on the inside. And in a therapeutic coaching relationship that offers skills, tools, and pathways to new outcomes.

I’m accepting two new Somatic Restoration Trauma Release Clients in mid September if you’d like to schedule a 20 minute free insight call and see if we are fit go to link tree.

Shifting behaviors, emotional reactivity, addressing nourishment barriers, creating healthy boundaries, and organizing simple steps for change is a lot to manage on our own. We actually need others to get what may be inside out and have simple structures to create concrete change.

This is a partnership that emerges from your own personal experience and inner leadership. We know that connection and support with yourself is the pathway to change.

All of this happens in Sky Mother Temple a sacred clear quiet space in Hood River Oregon. I also offer on-line somatic coaching, yes an oxymoron, but it works as I can attune through the screen to you.

If you want to find out more schedule an insight call 📞 so we can see if I am a fit for you.

I have two spots opening Mid-September and would love to support you.

Wow once again up level my own ability to receive and give in the reciprocal flow was sooooooo easy . Thank you for everything we all created together.
So many moments undocumented and so much deep sisterhood.

Deep bow of gratitude 🙏🏻 and so much Belonging.
Let’s keep our hearts remembering how good we are at caring for each other.
Let’s not let the trance and machine of depersonalized separation overwhelm our innate Self that is so whole.

loving you & for sparking the fire and bringing us together.

We are so blessed. May we continue to dedicate this merit to all who are actively struggling on the planet.

Mmm such a good couples sound attunement session. They rolled in after a ceremony to get all the upgrades and visions integrated. They spoke what was alive in their aspirations as well as obstacles. We practiced offering the difficulty to space and letting their insight offer drum, rattle, and voice dissolve the dissonance.

Then the harmonics came in through crystal singing bowls, gongs, bells, and tuning forks of the body to widen and clarify the energetic aperture. Listening to frequencies we can renew without effort.

Then the flower essence, oils of plants, and cranial sacral therapy sealed in the rhythm of the universal flow!

I love my work!

Come schedule your own session with your beloved @ Sky Mother Temple in Hood River!

All is ok in the world at Oregon Country Fair, as self expression, joy, foolishness, art, freedom and love are the code! I have been feeling so upset by the fascist behavior of ICE and the obliteration of so many social safety nets for the vulnerable in the US.

Fair makes everything feel like maybe the collapse won’t touch the culture of self-expression, innovation, justice, our rich diversity, National Parks, and inclusivity that I feel is what makes America amazing. But I am not longer nieve as age had brought down the viel of how capitalism had laid bare our values for balance and responsibility to ethics.

I did find a Flower Crown that healed my heart and felt like it grew out of my head as a perfect reflection of my soul unfettered. I gave mysef permission to be frivolous. These days I have been so focused on impact, legacy, and accountability it was a joy to treat myself.

Of course connecting with klan who are out of my loops was a treat and sinking in with friends who are “my life jackets” and ally’s is a necessary and life affirming balm.

Happy Summer Everyone

Happy Sol Sticere finding my personal pause as the Sun ☀️ hits a still point in this turning world.

there would be no dance,
And there is only the dance.”

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Portland?

I am listening

I follow your bodies natural intelligence to unwind strain patterns, adhesions, and energetic blockages. After 25 years of studying and working with the body I receive information directly from your tissues, muscles, fluids, nervous system, and energetic field. I hold a very resourced continuum of massage techniques, which include: Myofacial Release, Cranial Sacral Therapy, and Lymphatic Drainage. My tool kit and resource further derives from sound therapy, aromatherapy, clairvoyance, shamanism, and somatic psychotherapy. I believe my ability to meet you is proportional to the depth of my interior mind, heart, and body journey.

I am currently expanding my practice to begin leading groups and solo retreats on the Oregon Coast and abroad.
