𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀 — and learn to find your rhythm.

Last session, we practiced becoming a Neutral Observer to our own inner world — a kinder, steadier way of being with ourselves instead of always trying to fix.

It was tender. It was powerful. And it’s just a taste of what Tending Together offers you: a sacred, 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁-𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 to practice somatic tools in community.

Now, I’m inviting YOU to join us live:
🗓️ Tending Together — 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗵𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗺𝘀
📅 Monday, August 24th
🕤 9:30am PDT | 10:30am MDT | 11:30am CDT | 12:30pm EDT

We’ll explore the rhythms moving through your body and how tuning into them can help you feel grounded, settled, and at peace.

Free. On Zoom. No experience needed.

Come as you are — we’ll tend to the rest together. 🤍

I am spending a few days in San Diego at a training called 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝘆𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗹𝗲

It’s tender, deep work — what happens in the body when someone comes close to the edge of life, and what it takes to 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸.

Here are some take aways from Day 1

Trauma doesn’t live in the event. It lives in the nervous system.

A 𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 isn’t automatically a wound. And 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 — like we come back different. That’s real, and it deserves tenderness.

I’m here four more days, and I’ll be sharing a takeaway from each day in my Tending Together Community. If you’d like to follow along with what I’m learning, join me in the community — a free, gentle space where I’ll be posting daily notes from this training. 💙

Here’s home for the week — Humphreys Half Moon Inn.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗲?

In our last Tending Together, we explored a gentle practice that can be life-changing: stepping into the eyes of the Neutral Observer.

Not the critic. Not the fixer. Just a 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 — one who sees you without judgment.

We practiced with a simple object (mine was a turtle 🐢) and learned something profound: when we’re too close to our own story, we can’t see the whole picture.

The Neutral Observer helps us 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸, see the truths of who we are, and receive messages we usually can’t take in:
“You are brave.”
“You are a kind person.”
“This is really hard for you — I can see that.”

And it becomes a resource you can carry with you all week.

If you missed it, the recording is available — and I’d love to welcome you into the next session live.
🙌 Join me for the next FREE Tending Together:
🗓️ Monday, August 24th
🕤 9:30am PDT | 10:30am MDT | 11:30am CDT | 12:30pm EDT

This time, we’re going to learn to 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗵𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗺𝘀 — a beautiful way to settle your nervous system and feel more at home in your own body.

I’m attending Eye of the Needle training later this month — an advanced training, designed by 𝗗𝗿 𝗣𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗲, that goes to the deepest places trauma can live.

It’s about shock that 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵: a surgery that left a mark you couldn’t name, an accident that happened in a second but never left the body, a moment near death that fractured something — and maybe opened something, too.

I’m genuinely excited, and a little awed, to be going deeper into this work so I can be a steadier, more spacious presence for the people I serve.

My newsletter is where I’ll bring my insights afterwards — the place I go deeper than a caption allows. Are you subscribed yet? If not, subscribe today.

Ever feel like your body is telling a story your mind hasn’t caught up with yet?

That flutter in your chest when you walk into a crowded room… the sudden fatigue after a difficult conversation… the way your shoulders tense when certain memories surface.

These aren’t random glitches—they’re your body’s way of communicating what words cannot.

Somatic Experiencing helps us listen to this bodily wisdom. It’s not about analyzing or fixing, but about gently noticing and allowing your nervous system to complete what it couldn’t in moments of overwhelm. Like helping a frightened animal gradually relax into safety, we learn to regulate from the inside out.

What body sensations have you noticed speaking to you lately?

Urgency often shows up as a tight jaw, a quickened heart, or a feeling that you must move right now. But what happens if you stop to place a hand on that spot, or simply gaze around the room to orient yourself?

We practiced these simple, effective shifts in our recent session.

Feeling like you’re constantly chased by a deadline, an expectation, or an “if-I-don’t-do-it-now” internal voice?

You aren’t “broken”—that’s your nervous system’s way of trying to keep you safe. In my latest Tending Together session, we explored how to hold space for urgency without letting it drive the bus.
