that’s right, mi gente.

eat your greens.

it’s spring—the season of the liver and gallbladder—and there is no better time to nourish this system. after the stillness of winter, your liver is waking up from hibernation.

it’s ready to do what it was designed to do: filter blood, release stagnation, and detoxify your body.

your liver needs nutrients and qi from real food to turn on its engine—not a 3-day juice cleanse or a wack “detox kit” from a social media grifter.

spring fuel for the liver & gallbladder
the liver loves bitter and sour flavors to move stagnant energy.

add these to your cart:

- dark leafy greens: spinach, kale, and dandelion leaf.

- sour citrus: lemon, lime, and grapefruit to “cut” through stagnation.

- bitter & fermented: kimchi, sauerkraut, and pickles.

- seasonal crunch: asparagus, scallions, and cucumbers.

herbal allies:

- dandelion & chrysanthemum (clear heat)

- goji berries (nourish blood)

- mint & cilantro (brighten the spirit)

stop looking for a “quick fix” and start feeding your engine.

FIRST event of the year at so of course i had to do the work that changed the trajectory to my own healing journey— breathwork & energy healing.

i’ve been sitting with the feelings since the event—feelings of joy, gratitude, veneration for traditional medicine, and a knowing that i’m exactly where i meant to be. i am here!

i even had the pleasure to have my two teammates support me with set up and breakdown and making sure the flow was to my vision. things that might be small for some but i’ve not to me. they were also encouraged to participate— they did, and like everyone else had a powerful experience.

thank you, team!!💜

sharing MY Medicine— embodying this statement is something i’ve worked on. i used to worry about what others would think, look at my work as not a “real” job, or link it to woo woo and making it less than what it is.

i’m at a place where idgaf— MY Medicine speaks for itself. come find out!

thank you to everyone who joined! see you next time!

we know the world is heavy. everyone is feeling the surge of uncertainty, but our daily responsibilities don’t stop for us to process it.

most of us try to “sweat it out” at the gym. but while the gym moves your muscles, it doesn’t always move your energy.

that unprocessed emotional weight stays there, building up under the surface. it manifests as stiffness, a “clench” in the nervous system, and eventually, chronic pain.

unprocessed emotions are just energetic debris. if we don’t clear the path, we stay stagnant.

heart alchemy is your dedicated time to clear the field. it’s a courageous sanctuary where you can stop “managing” the weight and start releasing it.

it’s time to move from surviving to flowing.

supporting people on their healing and wellness journey will never get old for me. it’s an honor to be a service provider.

even virtual work is powerful because energy is not bound to four walls, it travels through space and time. miss me with “that’s woo woo”, NO— it’s science.

whether in-person on my table or a virtual sacred session, the effort and heart is the same for me and the transformation and clarity for my clients is profound.

at movement in science, we believe that wellness should reach every layer of the being—physical, energetic, and emotional. that’s why i joined the team last fall.

hola, kathy rivera— trauma-informed massage therapist and energy medicine practitioner and i’m excited to bring a powerful new experience to our space: heart alchemy: breathwork + energy healing

we know how heavy the world has felt lately. i’ve curated this sanctuary specifically for those of us feeling “stuck” or overstimulated by the noise of the world.

heart alchemy is the sacred process of turning our heaviest burdens into our greatest medicine.

through a rhythmic blend of breathwork healing, sound, and energy medicine, i’ll help participants move out of their heads and back into their bodies.

this is a rare opportunity to experience deep somatic release in a held, supportive environment.

whether you’re a regular on the mat or new to energy work, kathy’s gentle yet potent approach is the perfect spring “thaw” for your nervous system.
