YOU GUYS. The wild / proud / unreal / heart expanding feeling of holding an actual physical copy of WRITE YOURSELF HOME! And then the sky! Cannot wait to share this with you. 🩵✨🌅📘🥹

Another absolutely magical week in the books with dream collaborators & at s paradise. We tasted local wine and honey, foraged for wild plants, wandered ancient streets, hiked through the countryside, stretched, wrote, and shared. Laughter, tender tears, spontaneous dance parties, and the particular gift of connecting with new souls in beautiful places.

Plus two milestones for me: my first book talk (thanks for the push, ! ;) and eating gluten pain free for the first time in 20 years. 🥳

We’re already hatching plans for next year and check bio for our upcoming equine embodied writing retreat June 26-28!

!! Write Yourself Home is equal parts compelling story and transformative guide, a radical invitation to come home to your body—finding safety, joy, and connection, exactly as you are. Chock full of the movement and writing practices I’ve been sharing with folks over decades of teaching, this is the book I wish I’d had at the beginning: gentle guidance to access the truth and vitality that lives in the body. Arrives from the wonderful folks on August 4th, 2026. Preorder link in bio for a signed copy from .bookstore! 🩵

Text messages, laundry piles, news headlines. With so much pulling at our attention, no wonder we’re overwhelmed and distracted.

Even our language - we pay attention, have attention deficits - quietly suggests that attention is costly, and we are overdrawn.

But maybe we could approach this all a different way.

What if attention were less like a budget and more like an expansive field? What if your own body, voice, and creativity could guide you towards a different way of attending?

Join us for The Field of Attention an immersive, two-part series to explore attention through embodied writing. Over each 5-week session, we’ll combine gentle movement and breath exercises with writing prompts and (optional) sharing in a small-group setting to tend to your attention, your writing, and your inner unfolding.

We’ll meet weekly on Mondays from 6 p.m. - 8 p.m. in the beautiful upstairs space at in Portland, Maine. Link in bio ✨

When I visited dear at her beautiful ranch to experience one of her horse workshops, I knew it would be joyful (it’s Bri, that’s a given ;) but I didn’t know how transformative the encounter would be - enriching my understanding of horses but also of connection, relationship, and nervous system care (and also, isn’t Lu horse such a beauty?)

Just 2 spots remain in Intuitive and Free, the equine embodied writing retreat that Bri and I will be offering Sept 19-21 in Northfield, NH. I’m so excited to share the deep magic of both these practices with you. Details in bio, feel free to DM with questions. ✨🐴📝

So excited for this upcoming retreat! Join me and divine for Intuitive and Free, a weekend equine immersion and embodied writing retreat at Driftwood, a beautiful 140 acre horse ranch in Northfield, New Hampshire.

We’ll explore the deep teaching horses offer in nervous system care, felt sense, and intuition. We’ll take this learning into language through the gentle, joyful practice of embodied writing.

Alongside these explorations, we’ll enjoy yoga, delicious meals, and the natural beauty of mid-September in the countryside.

Practice reconnecting with voice, intuition, body, and trust in a small, supportive group setting. Link in bio. 🐴📝🪄✨
