Your body is not confused. It is responding — precisely, intelligently — to what it's been given.

When we replaced the fats humans thrived on for thousands of years with industrially processed seed oils, we didn't just change our cooking.

We changed the composition of our cells. Linoleic acid from these oils embeds in your tissues for years, quietly disrupting the mitochondrial membranes that produce your energy, regulate your hormones, and hold your metabolic fire.

This is not about perfection.

It is about returning — slowly, practically — to what your body already knows.

The Black Sesame 21-Day SpringVital Detox is that return. Not a punishment. A remembering.

Join us this spring.

Black Sesame 21 Day SpringVital Detox It’s Spring Detox Time! Begins Wednesday, April 22nd, 2026! Let's do it together! Meet your Guide Hi! I’m Cadie and I’ve been an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner for over 12 years. I believe in sustainable transformation in alignment with th...

Finally a spring detox that won’t deplete you or make you feel unhinged. A supported cleanse backed by 2000 years of Chinese Medicine wisdom.

21 Days. 3 Phases. Find your Flow. We Begin April 22nd.

Why Detox at All?

🌿We live in a world of accumulation: processed food additives, synthetic fragrances, heavy metals, excess hormones, emotional residue.

🌿When the liver becomes overloaded, it grows sluggish — and a sluggish liver means toxins that should be leaving your body get recirculated instead.

🌿The signs are often subtle at first: fatigue that sleep doesn't fix, mental fog, skin that won't clear, moods that feel out of proportion, weight that won't budge, hormonal symptoms that seem to come from nowhere.

What makes this approach different is the recognition that detox isn't only physical.

🌸Unprocessed emotions — particularly grief, anger, and stagnation — live in the body and affect how your organs function.

🌸The liver holds anger, frustration, and stuck vision.

🌸The colon holds what we haven't been able to release.

Hi! I’m Cadie and I’ve been an acupuncturist and Chinese
medicine practitioner for over 12 years. I believe in sustainable transformation in alignment with the cycles of nature and soul.

I specialize in transformational women’s health and can’t emphasize enough the importance of cleansing the system, but in a way that does not create negative stress or depletion to your system.

Together we move through a gentle shift in diet and lifestyle for 21 days so that you can feel lighter, release emotional burdens, open your “spring” energy pathways, and support healing of your physiological and psychological systems.

Why Do It Together?

Something alchemical happens when women commit to healing alongside each other — the container holds you when your own willpower wavers.

Chinese medicine wisdom said we can intentionally align with the changing season to support our health in all levels. With Acupuncture, for example, if you came in for a session, I would tend to some of your spring time points on the wood element channels perhaps moving your qi or including detox points…. and of course always supporting your constitution. Aligning with the season can also simply be intentional with a self-care day spending time outside and attuning to the principles of springtime, including movement, flow, flexibility, release, vision, the green color, the green, growing things…

“There's only one way to know which way to go.

You have to follow your fear.

He will show you the way.

Running away from what scares you is a way of losing your way: by doing so, you get further and further away from what you seek.

If you're afraid to face that person or situation, there's the knot that needs to be melted.

That knot that if recognized and confronted will give you the keys to freedom.

From now on, then when you feel fear, annoyance, irritation and worry don't run away.

Keep listening to what you feel.

And with courage go out to discover the treasure hidden in your discomfort.

The most precious treasures are guarded by the most terrifying dragon. To reach the treasures, one must go to the dragon... and kiss it. ”

~Bert Hellinger, psychotherapist and founder of Systemic Family Constellations

Everyone is talking about hormones when it comes to peri/menopause. Yes, there is so much more…

It’s hormonal, yes. But it’s also structural, neurological, organ functional, psycho-emotional, and mytho-poetic.

Women’s bodies are highly complex and so are life transitions.

And that’s exactly what menopause is: a high labyrinthian rite of passage that requires not only a multi-therapeutic crucible, but also a remembering through the sacred feminine.

When your eyes, your heart, and your womb begin to see through this lens, your discomfort becomes the lead you transform into gold.

This is a process not a thing to fix.

It’s a PAUSE. Time to reflect, to go inward, to reclaim all the abandoned or forgotten parts that now are ready to be expressed.

Power, ancient beauty, a rebirth into your “second spring”.

When you seek support at Hawk & Rose, we address all the layers: symptom relief, but also the deeper currents of feminine longing and becoming.

Come explore with me why women all over are choosing Chinese medicine first in women’s healthcare.

LATEST TESTIMONIAL: *CHRONIC PAIN & FIBROMYALGIA*

"As an individual who has navigated chronic pain due to Fibromyalgia and arthritis for more than 22 years, finding Cadie was a true gift! By the time I met Cadie, I had been on several different traditional prescribed medicines for over 20 years.

These medications had awful side effects, were very expensive and created other health challenges (high blood pressure, effects on my liver, depression, exhaustion and anxiety). I decided there had to be a healthier way to approach care for my body. This is when the universe brought Cadie into my life!

After safely weaning off “traditional” medicine, I started going to Cadie. Through the combination of Acupuncture, Chinese medicine and energy work with Cadie, my health improved significantly!

My blood pressure went from High Blood Pressure 1 (Hypertension) to Normal blood pressure; my pain went from a 8 to a 1; My thinking became clearer; I was able to move my body with ease which allowed me to enjoy active activities like walking, playing pickleball; doing functional exercise classes and gardening.

The other bonus for me is the cost of Acupuncture, Chinese medicine and Healing work is less expensive than if I had continued down the path I was on with traditional medicine!

I am so grateful to Cadie for the life-giving treatment and healing I receive from her. For anyone with Fibromyalgia, the combo of Acupuncture, Chinese medicine and healing energy work is a game changer!” ~G.G.

"In many shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions: 'When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop being comforted by the sweet territory of silence'?" ~Angeles Arrien, author of The 4-Fold Way

Tending to your regulation is an integral part of healing. How do you regulate besides just coming in for acupuncture treatments?

Regulation is usually tacked into the whole phrase, nervous system regulation, a term we are all familiar with. The nervous system is neurological and the neurological, in Chinese medicine, is often paralleled to the shen, or spirit. Not the same exactly, but very relatable.

Of course, our holy, numinous spirit :-) is not our brain or our nervous system, per sè, but the understanding of the interweaving of eastern terminology and western is important. It can help us to understand why meditation is both a medicine for the spirit and for your nervous system regulation... for the mind, the heart, and the body.

Meditation can actually help heal your physiological and psychological symptoms at the root!

When we are regulated, we are not stressed and when we are not stressed, our physiology and psychology can self-harmonize, we come into our center, our authenticity, and our feel good embodiment.

In our world, developing a meditation practice that works for you in an authentic way can be challenging. This is what I wanted to write to you about today.

'the comfort of silence', as the quote above mentions, can be meditation, contemplation, or reflection. This is the yin: a sacred feminine building of inner resources, restoration, regulation, and integration of the yang aspects of our life (which are many!). This is key to health.

Here are some real life practical tips for starting or starting again, a meditation practice:

*Educate yourself about the meditation research out there now. Allow your conscious mind to get on board and motivated by the life changing effects that meditation can have!

*Addressing blocks to meditation with other practices first: EFT tapping, qigong shaking, specific breath work, yoga, grieving, meditative walking/lying down or standing, parts work (which help to address the inner guards or protectors who don't want you to meditate)...

*Meditation is about being with yourself. Being in your body. Feeling what is here and what is beneath the surface. (Uncovering what is beneath the surface, in the subconscious, plays the biggest role in healing.) Meditation can be challenging if there is pain, fear, and trauma in the tissues/energy field that have not been integrated. Seek trauma healing in whichever forms speak to you. Find a trusted guide, counselor, therapist to support you.

*Acupuncture can help peel layers of trauma so that you can be in your body a little easier. The needles inserted into the body are a somatic-energetic avenue for trauma healing. (However, I believe we need a multi-therapeutic approach for trauma healing).

(Per cross-cultural wisdom traditions, as Angeles Arrien succinctly puts it: singing, dancing, and stories can also support your regulation AND address blocks to meditation!)

Finding the type of meditation that works for you and having a few different types of meditation in your medicine basket will help you to practice regularly. There is somatic meditation, heart-centered meditations, chakra meditation, breath/midnfulness meditation, vipassana, and many more.

New healing space!

When we journey into our body, we encounter all the things that lead us back to ourselves. The body is wise and intelligent, and knows how to change, transform, and heal.

Why you can understand your patterns but still feel stuck in them—

Because understanding happens at the mental level.

But change happens at three deeper levels most people never address.

Here's what I mean:

**LEVEL 1: Mental Understanding** ✓
You've done the therapy. Read the books. You KNOW your attachment style. You understand why you people-please. You can intellectually trace your patterns back to childhood.

This is valuable. But it's not enough.

**LEVEL 2: Somatic Integration** (Most people stop before here)

The pattern isn't just in your thoughts. It's encoded in your nervous system.

Your body EXPECTS to be abandoned, so it pre-emptively braces. Your tissues hold the memory of every boundary violation.

Until you work somatically—releasing what's stored in your body—knowing your pattern doesn't change your pattern.

**LEVEL 3: Energetic Clearing** (Almost no one addresses this)

The pattern exists in your energy field. It's in your lineage—passed down through generations.

It's in the agreements you made (consciously or not) about who you have to be to stay safe/be loved/belong.

Until you clear it energetically, it keeps regenerating.

**LEVEL 4: Soul Retrieval** (The deepest level)
Parts of your essential self went into hiding to survive. Your joy. Your power. Your voice. Your sexuality. When we call these parts back home, you don't just understand yourself differently.

You BECOME different.

This is why I integrate:

🧠 Parts Work (mental/emotional)

🫀 Acupuncture + Somatic practices (body/nervous system)

⚡ Shamanic healing (energetic/ancestral)

✨ Soul retrieval (reclaiming essential self)

Because transformation isn't about understanding more at the mental level.

It's about integrating ALL the levels where the pattern lives.

Soul-level Embodied Having…
When you do that?

You don't just know why you people-please.

You stop people-pleasing.
You don't just understand your relationship pattern.
You (without effort) choose differently.
You don't just talk about your purpose.
You live it.

This is the difference between insight and metamorphosis.

One conversation happening in five languages.

That’s a pattern.

This is why working on just your health, or just your money mindset, or just your relationship issues gives you partial results.

Because you're addressing the symptom in one domain while the root pattern keeps running the show from beneath.

Real transformation happens when you identify the CORE pattern and work with it at every level:

Somatically (in your body)
Emotionally (in your feelings)
Energetically (in your field)
Practically (in your life structures)
Spiritually (in your soul's evolution)

When you do that?

Your chronic pain resolves AND your wealth dialogue changes.
Your hormones stabilize AND your relationship deepens.
Your anxiety settles AND your purpose clarifies.

Because you're not fixing symptoms.
The symptoms become the gateways.

You're transforming the underlying architecture.

This is alchemical work.

And the woman who gets this?

She goes to the root. She knows it’s not easy and that it takes time, building her transformational skill set, consistent lifestyle reframes…
