I always talk to Littles during their sessions.

They are so much more aware than we give them credit.

And, being so in their bodies, they feel everything happening during their session.

So when they look to me for confirmation or reassurance, I always talk with them.

I let them know I can feel those tensions shifting too.

That it's ok to have big emotions.

That momma (and/or dad) are close by and can come support at anytime.

That they are doing a great job.

That they did big work and they can celebrate how much their bodies shifted.

I love talking with them. I can always see the recognition in their eyes, that they know I can see and hear them. And, it really is always an honor to be trusted to support such precious, tender little beings.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, light touch healing modality that supports nervous system regulation to unwind tensions, traumas, and injuries. Because of the gentle nature, it is safe for even the youngest amongst us. If you are curious how this modality can be a support for your Little, DM or email [email protected]

Mobile sessions available for the Shuswap and North Okanagan regions, because sometimes Littles feel safest at home and I am more than happy to support them there.

There was a time in my life where I vowed I would never share my world of horses with other people. It's interesting to sit back and reflect on.

Horses had always been my safe place; my thriving place. But, several years of working under a highly abusive coach left me in a state of deep mistrust and fear of letting people near me when working with horses. So I decided that the best thing to do was keep my horse world walled off and seperate, a secret haven only I could access.

The horses, as they always do, had other plans.

When I started working with my mentor in 2022 to learn Equine Facilitated Learning, I was equally curious and tentative as to how powerful this work was. I could see and feel how much horses could help others through this modality, but it meant opening up and letting people in.

Part invitation, part gentle shove from the universe, I decided to pursue that path despite the old fears and remain open how it could shift things for others, and for me.

And, I am so glad I did.

Over the years I have witnessed profound changes in people through the EFL work.

Moments of clarity.

Moments of grief.

Moments of recognizing old patterns no longer serving.
Moments of joy at realizing deep, heart-led desires.

Moments of vulnerability.

Moments of peace and safety.

All through being held by the herd; these incredible beings who hold no judgement, no shame, nothing but safe presence and gentle space holding.

And, everytime someone has expressed gratitude towards this offering, another level of healing ripples through my system. A reminder comes forward, that these horses are not to be hidden, they are here to do big work. And they love it, they really truly love it.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted the horses and I on your healing path. And to each of you for supporting my healing too.

If you are curious how the horses can be a support for you, book in using the link in the comments. Whenever you are ready, they are here for you. And so am I.

It's ok to be a little nervous before your session. It's more common than people think.

You are trying something new, and your body isn't sure if it's safe yet. And, if you have past experiences where new situations have been unsafe or touch has not been welcome, there is an added level of uncertainty understandably coming into play.

I think it's important to name these things, to normalize them, because so many people shame themselves over these "silly, nonsensical feelings." Like they "should be better" because there isn't anything to be nervous about.

In Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, your body is always met where it's at. You aren't judged or shamed, rather, you are greeted with compassion, understanding, and gratitude for taking that first step to get some self care.

This is also why the first session is always a little longer, to give us time to chat and your body to settle, to ask any questions you have and only get on the table when you feel ready. Then, your body guides the pace it needs to heal during our time together. No pressures, no shaming, just listening and supporting. And sometimes, that is the most healing thing about the session. Just being seen and heard for who you are.

So, if you have been curious about a BCST session and have been worried about being nervous, just know you aren't alone. And I am here for you whenever you feel ready.

Remember, you are worth it.

We're returning for our second event, Holding Space with the Herd!

Join Courtney and Bree for a day of gentle reconnection to the body. Gathering together for a day out in nature, and with the guided support of horses, we explore how to tune into the messages from the body to better understand our health, our intuition, and ourselves. All with the underlying understanding that our body is not our enemy, it is always trying to communicate with us and look after us the best it can. And, when we can learn to listen to these messages, we open up opportunities for deeper healing, and self-compassion.

The day will weave together techniques and tools that can be modified for use in day to day life, providing you support not just for one day, but every day. We will add in Equine Facilitated Learning and gentle forest meditations to help your system absorb the teachings of the day.

No prior horse experience necessary.
