Not everyone deserves your best. Our people-pleaser tendencies may urge us to be 'fair' to everyone, but honouring our boundaries is crucial. It's okay to minimize interaction with manipulative or exploitative individuals."

Happy Pride Beautiful Queerdos !

In a world where there is a real lack of safety for many bodies, may we endure with steadfastness in our communities by standing up for identities that are trying to be erased . May we deeply know in our bones that all our liberation is a collective one. May all bodies find the freedom to soften and rest.

Self-care is often marketed as something we can buy to instantly feel better. While there's value in self-soothing behaviours, relying solely on it isn't sustainable or healthy long term. True self-care is a journey to prioritize our well-being despite life's challenges.

Happy earth day 🌱 🌍. May our souls thaw with the sweet aliveness granted to us today.

Even in moments of heartbreak, the grace of gravity can break the tormented free fall and bring us to our knees. May we be cradled in Earth’s embrace in our moments of grief.

My face for the 𝒜𝓁𝑔𝑜𝓇𝒾𝓉𝒽𝓂 ✨… I wrote a newsletter coming out tomorrow morning about why healing feels terrible before it feels better. Subscribe by clicking the link in my bio!📫

Our survival systems often suppress painful experiences, prompting coping strategies that hinder full emotional processing, which can be uncomfortable AF. Healing from trauma may initially sting, akin to removing a shard of glass and disinfecting the wound, before it starts feeling better.

I wrote a new blog about collective trauma and healing.

More importantly did you know trees have been known to share nutrients at critical times to keep each other healthy? They are often linked to each other via an older “mother” or “hub” tree.

I wonder about a world where we consult and reconnect with healers of our planet, aka our tree beings in such times of existential crisis ?

What environments do you breathe in the easiest ? Each environment offers a unique sensory experience, engaging our senses and encouraging us to be fully present in our bodies. From the scent of wildflowers to the sounds of a bustling marketplace, these experiences can ground us in the here and now, helping us stimulate or down regulate the nervous system.

About Me

I want to create a culture that is tuned into the wonderment and joy of the body. My business both caters to celebrating events dedicated to delivering memorable experiences to honour your life’s biggest events, milestones or even just to sprinkle connection and excitement to your weekend. I also offer training and workshops in self-care through nourishing and mindful movement workshops. I am passionate about teaching belly dance to all levels and experiences. I strive to create accessible spaces both physically and emotionally so participants can and feel comfortable in their own skin and activate the joy of movement. In my teaching I focus on beyond "getting the moves right", but strive in supporting how movement can increase confidence, build community, embrace sensuality and develop new skills.
