Now is the only time there is. The past is gone. The future is unwritten.

Presence is the magic place where creation and connection happens.

The world around us is starving for our attention: “Look at this shiny new thing!” “Laugh at this… now this…” Distraction. Distraction. Gobbling up our seconds, minutes, hours, days!

When we slow down into the now, and our consciousness opens, our energy field expands, our hearts open, we meet inspiration. We are guided by love and appreciation.

Presence takes practice, especially in a world that has conditioned us to be distracted.

And so, we practice, again and again, at returning to the sacred now where we feel into our body, we savor each bite, we take action from a place of grounded presence.

We don’t do this to become “enlightened,” we do this to become fully alive, which just might be what enlightenment is. 💗🙏🏽✨

Respecting ourselves means we listen to the inner wisdom— the wisdom of our bodies—we acknowledge the wisdom that says “this feels draining,” or “this feels energizing.”

We exercise self-love when we act on those feelings and insights and give ourselves what we need—whether that is distance, less, more, closeness.

When we establish boundaries we are discerning and determining our capacity—with regards to people, time, space, food, temperature, sound, etc.

Our bodies are compasses, or barometers and when we tap into them we feel what resonates and what repels. We receive guidance from within.

When we honor that wisdom and act on it, then we are loving ourselves by giving ourselves what we need to feel safe and cared for.

Have you ever abandoned yourself by not establishing the boundaries your body asked for, so as not to upset someone else? And in the end you felt upset and uncomfortable? I think most people have. It’s not healthy—for us or the other person when we disregard our inner guidance.

Let’s practice loving ourselves, honoring ourselves, respecting ourselves. Let’s take up space, inhabit our bodies, and listen to the wisdom inherent within.

Boundaries are one of the ways we practice self-love and self-respect. What is relationship with boundaries like?

Catharsis is not the same as integration.

There are places within us that do not long simply to be released, expressed, or discharged. They long to be met. The lost orphans of psyche and soma may not be asking us to intensify what we feel, or to find some dramatic way of getting it out. They may be asking for something more subtle.

To stay. To feel what is here without collapsing into it. To remain close without needing to fix it, transcend it, or make it go away.

Because what we are meeting is not only emotion. We are meeting history—the traces of moments when there was not enough support, enough safety, enough attunement. These places do not need to be performed. They need relationship. They need to discover, slowly and over time, that they no longer have to carry what happened alone.

This is the quieter work of integration. Where there was compulsion, a little more space. Where there was reactivity, a little more choice. Where there was exile, the possibility of relationship.

Shadow work is not catharsis. It is the slow work of embodied integration.

I’ll be offering a new six-week Shadow Work journey beginning September 22. More soon.

Working with people over the years I have noticed that when asked what they are feeling in their body, many people respond with “I don’t know.”

Awareness of sensations in our bodies is a muscle of attention that has been devalued and dismissed for so long it has atrophied.

Through religious shame, social constructs that tout “decorum” and appropriateness, and an economic system that incentivizes busyness, we have become experts at dissociating from our bodies, and the sensations that move through it and give us information.

The body is the portal to a vibrant re-membered new world.

I believe in healing, but I don’t believe it’s for ourselves, it’s so that we can be better members of a caring, empathetic world. A new world we are weaving, as we simultaneously grieve what is dying.

I don’t trust those that promote “only good vibes” or “we must keep our vibration high at all times.”

Yes, let’s raise our vibration, but we can only do that through alchemizing the heaviness, the darkness, the fear—THE TRUTH.

I have alchemized enough myself to know this to be true, and trust in the process of delving into the difficult places where I know resurrection awaits.

Let’s come home to our bodies and the wisdom contained within.

Let’s heal and make whole our own selves so that we can be more empathetic humans who care for all people. Through embodiment we will be guided to take action on behalf of all people.

Like everything, boundaries take practice and discernment. I take my time when moving through something I am still uncomfortable or unfamiliar with whether that is baking bread or learning to create boundaries.

The truth is that establishing boundaries elicits fear in me—“Will they be mad at me?” “Will they abandon me?” “Am I being too sensitive, intolerant, picky?”

For sooooo long I have erred on the side of caution— which has looked like squishy boundaries, or little to none.

Boundaries have been something I have practiced, and they have been intimately interwoven with the reclamation of my self-worth and self-love.

I have been an expert at making excuses or understanding why people have acted in certain ways.

What I wasn’t an expert on was advocating for myself. Just because I understand someone’s traumas that motivate their unacceptable behavior does not mean that I deserve it or should tolerate it.

Loving and valuing myself means not everyone has to have access to me. That doesn’t mean I hate them, it simply means it is important for my self-care to determine what I will tolerate and what I won’t— where I need more space, and where I feel safe to get closer.

And let me be clear, I don’t have rigid boundaries, sometimes I take space for an hour, several days, or indefinitely, and I don’t make these decisions lightly. In fact, I determine them by feeling into my body because my body knows things my head can try to talk me out of.

Equal ground means we each deserve respect and consideration. If there is name calling, escalation, and emotional or physical violence both people have the responsibility to create boundaries until equal footing is re-established.

Over the years of creating sacred transformative spaces that take the shape of embodiment practices, workshops, and ceremonies, I have learned that people have a tendency of projecting an identity onto facilitators.

I’m here to shine a light on it and say: I’M HUMAN! I am not perfect. I don’t have it all figured out. I’m still learning and growing through, despite, and because of my traumas.

And even in my flawed humanness I can, for periods of time, channel a frequency and weave a space where participants can feel safe enough to explore, confront, and begin to transform parts of themselves that often remain in the shadows.

Even in my imperfect humanity, and maybe because of it, I have the ability to sit with people as they bring light into their shadowy places, and embrace themselves back into wholeness.

I have made journeying into the darkness while carrying a candle of illumination part of my life path, and it is my honor to accompany those who are wanting to illuminate all of themselves, not just the shiny parts we all like to show off.

What I’ve learned is that there is no shame in what we think or feel, no matter how much society tells us we shouldn’t think like that or feel those things. (That is not to say that we should act on every feeling or thought)

We feel what we feel, and only by acknowledging it and looking at it, do those parts then have the opportunity to shift and transform.

While I won’t tell you what to do, and I can’t fix you, I can weave a safe, non-judgmental space for you to look at all that’s scary for you to look at alone. I will walk with you and offer you tools to assist you on your journey, if that’s what you want.

But please know, I am not perfect. I am still learning and growing. I am still incredibly fu***ng human. Don’t put me on a pedestal.

👣Walk beside me for a time, if you’d like.

🧩I’ll ask questions to help you re-member the lost or forgotten knowing you carry within.

🌀I’ll give your opportunities to practice becoming more embodied.

🦋I will encourage you and cheer you on as you unfurl your glorious self into a more whole human.
