What is the story of your breath?

What lore is it binding you to or freeing you from?

The breath helps us narrate our experiences and every chance we take to become intentional in our present moment is another chance to author the next version of our story.

We are biological beings on a roller coaster of lived experiences that have been conditioned to believe that we must uphold an industrial level level of consistent over-functioning to keep up appearances in what is a literal micro-second of time in the broader evolution of our world.

The way of being our cultures believe is “right” has only been around for a few generations. We are dramatically under nourished in terms of food, touch, connection, time and perspective. We are living into so many questions and answers, and there can’t be any inherent wrongs to what our bodies do to help us integrate change.

There’s no sales pitch here. No lead in this caption. Just Saturday morning rants that I’ve been steeping on for the week. So much of my work is constantly asking the question: what need is this symptom/sensation/belief/etc serving? That simple reframe from diagnosis of the problem to desire to understand what question is being answered has shifted my entire practice, even in the cases I see that are “conventional” physical rehabilitation.

The art of creating a client’s herbal infusion begins with sitting in what plants are wanting to work with them, and how that fits into their current experience and intentions for having a blend made.

Sometimes there are specific health considerations to be made.

Sometimes the season plays a part, of the world or of our lives.

If the client is with me, I want to know how they respond to plants through their senses. What colours catch their eye, what smells.. what herbs are they drawn to on my shelf by those senses alone. What stories are they coming in with, how’s their mood lately.

That information, paired with the knowledge of plant personalities and relational dynamics, supports me in narrowing down what finds its way into the mix.

Often I’m blending while a client is integrating an experience we’ve had in session, or is on the table with acupuncture or cups doing their magic. The information their body says, non-verbally, helps me too.

If a client isn’t with me while I’m blending for them, I’m paying attention to tone and information as we chat about what their hope is for the blend.

Creating teas and herbal infusions, for me, is rarely about following a written recipe and much more about discovering the recipe in the moment. Yes there is science and textbook knowledge that supports that, but as always, science is best paired with a healthy dose of art ☕️

Excited to be offering some group and individual opportunities this spring and summer to experience this kind of tea blending first hand. Stay tuned 💛

Capacity is built from capacity.

Over a decade facilitating and coaching movement experiences in group format. What I teach and how I teach has changed significantly over the years. I will be forever grateful to an early experience as part of a team coaching a group of older adults fitness and fall prevention skills in my early University years, as well as the experiences I’ve had teaching classes ranging from teens to 80yr olds all in one group. Nothing motivates and challenges more than finding ways to help others develop new relationships to their physical self, in unexpected ways. I’ve worked with groups of four and groups of one hundred. I’ve generalized an I’ve specified.

Making movement and body awareness accessible to anyone is a skill that must be continuously honed.

There will be times where we can challenge our capacity and our body rises to the challenge alongside our minds. There will be other times where our expectations of ourselves do not meet the capacity of our systems. Neither has more value than the other, and progress exists in both ends of the spectrum.

What matters to me more than “progress”? Your ability to be in relationship to your body. Right relationship. To experience it for everything it has to offer and experience through it as a result.

Movement is one way into that relationship. Not the only way.

Body + Breath class began last night. If you’d like to join us, I have a spot or two available in person or online. Mondays at 5:30 for the next three weeks. Message me!

What does that difference feel like to consider?

Intention and presence within our movement and exercise (or any wellness practices for that matter) is the biggest decider of impact, in my experience. Most people I meet are doing all the right things in theory, but are not fully in relationship with those things either.

Many people use exercise as a way to escape the very vehicle that is moving them, or the experiences that live within that vehicle. This by nature perpetuates a stress response. Not altogether wrong or bad, but often is a mismatch with why they want to exercise in the first place.

Feeling like you need more space?

This is one of my favs to get to the source of tension.

Rolling your way up and down the spine, with a stable foot and a soft knee, brings movement and space, circulation and a bit of grace, to the spine, the central nervous system at its source, moving and mobilizing fascial connections and opening possibility in the whole body mind.

I literally feel taller after a few rounds of this.

This video is at 2x speed, so go real slow and nothing should be painful. Keep those knees soft and see what happens!

Sometimes we need a little super hero energy and why not call in the plant allies?

This team combines for a powerful embodiment of strength through softness energy for when things are feeling tense and grabby.

You’ll notice their impact before you’ve finished your first cup ☕️

Powdered ginger works well too, if fresh isn’t available. My friends at stock all these herbs if your super hero(ine) cabinet is running low- or I can blend you a custom batch from my stock too.

I’m toying with the idea of offering a session for personal tea blending, where you could come in for your own tea ceremony and blending guidance.. let me know if that sounds intriguing 🧐

We begin in a couple weeks! I have four spots remaining available.

Join me at for a four week class series: Body + Breath.

Each week we will explore through therapeutic movement, guided breath and somatic practice. This is a restorative, intentionally small group offering that requires no previous experience.

All you’ll need is a yoga mat, bolster or pillows, a journal and an open mind.

Classes are Mondays at 5:30, Mar 16 - Apr 6. Drop in to any class for $35+gst, or come to all four do $125+gst.

Your host, Kat Hossack, is an experienced Certified Athletic Therapist, Somatic Practitioner and Breathwork Facilitator who works from a trauma-informed perspective.

We spend so much energy on avoiding the nature of presence and yet turning toward the exact moment we’re in is the most some of the profound medicine available.

I think this is one of the reasons I love infusions - tea - as a choice of remedy when working with plant medicines.

Tea making, taking, requires presence. Herbs don’t often work well or long term when used as a quick fix remedy. While some can have beautiful benefits for acute symptoms easing, most often they desire a broader relationship in order to do their best work. That doesn’t mean long term use, necessary.. more so a more holistic intention.

Teas especially ask for our presence. They require a few moments of prep. Time to steep. Taking them in calls our senses online. They merge our outer environment with our inner world.
