We have two incredible opportunities to gather and celebrate Beltane next week! Which will you join us for?!

1. Friday, May 1st: Beltane Fire Ceremony: Ignite What Wants to Grow with

This ceremony is designed to help you:
-Clarify what you are ready to grow
-Release what no longer supports you
-Trust your intuition
-Identify one next aligned action step you can actually take
This is a lively, participatory, and community-centered fire ceremony, more of a party with purpose than quiet, somber ritual.

2. Saturday, May 2nd: Feeding the Spirits with .waverley

Join us for a three-hour ritual of creation, reverence, and relationship. Together, we will craft an intricate, mandala offering, as a vessel of prayer. This is a feast for the spirits, the land, and the unseen ones who walk with us. Through song, beauty, and intention, each element we place becomes part of a collective language of devotion, shaped by many hands and held by something far larger than us.

There is so much sacred magic on offer next weekend. We can’t wait to be with you. ✨

There’s been a lot of throat stuff showing up lately. It’s always interesting to work with the throat because for many (myself included) when Reiki hits an unbalanced throat it triggers a cough, a very physical act of clearing. Which is why I always keep cough drops on hand! šŸ˜‰

Aside from physical issues related to this area (allergies, colds, sore throat, swallowing issues, reflux, etc.) there’s a lot that the throat holds and can be associated with. The throat has a lot to do with communication of course - what we say, how we say it, what we’ve chosen to stuff down or hold in rather than express.

The throat is also the physical place where the head and the body come together. It can become a gatekeeper of sorts, keeping certain difficult experiences from rising up to the mind. The throat often becomes part of a larger pathway through which the body wants to move stuckness up and out when ready.

Like all the other places we explore in this work, the throat can hold so much physically, emotionally, and symbolically. There is never a single meaning or reason. It is always unique. Always personal.

I love the way our bodies tell our stories when we start to listen to them.

What’s showing up for you this week?

Thank you so much to The Village for inviting me out to share my Somatic Skills for Professionals training with staff today!

And an even bigger thanks to the 40 individuals who showed up to learn about the personal and professional applications of somatics and the nervous system through lecture and experience. It was such a joy to share this information and these practices with you!

I’ll be offering the extended version of this training virtually on 5/22 and again on 9/25. If you’re interested, send me a DM and I’ll share the info. Would love to see you there!

I know somatic practices get a lot of hype these days. But for me personally, working with these practices has truly given me the quality of life I never thought I’d achieve.

I’ve been on a healing journey for a long time and tried many different therapies and modalities. I experienced a lot of healing through my years of holistic and spiritual practices. Life had drastically improved since I was a suicidal teen. I had a successful career. A family. Things were good. AND I still had this deeply rooted sense of worthlessness that I couldn’t seem to shift no matter what I tried. I still felt like I was experiencing life from behind a pane of glass. I still felt like there was a certain level of joy and presence that I just couldn’t access. And for the most part I’d given up hope of getting farther than I’d already come, which to be fair was pretty damn far already.

And then I found somatics. Specifically, I found an incredible somatic EMDR therapist and then Somatic Experiencing. Life began to change in the most incredible ways.

It wasn’t overnight. It was slow and it was hard. It was the type of change you can’t feel in the moment but you look back and think, damn, I’m not the same person I was a year ago. And it’s been worth every bit of sadness, frustration, time and money I’ve put into it for the last five years.

As a young person who lacked the tools and support, I stuffed all my traumatic experiences down into my body and held them there under lock and key. In an exquisite act of protection, my mind shut it away so I wouldn’t have to think about it. My body went numb so I wouldn’t have to feel it. When I arrived to this work, I had very little access to bodily sensations. And when things were hard, a fog of dissociation came in quickly to protect me. Somatic practices have helped me to slowly reclaim my capacity for presence and embodiment. Each time I regain a memory or reconnect to an area of my body, it feels like a tiny miracle.

Somatic practices haven’t helped me to release my trauma or discharge it. They’ve helped me know myself more fully. They’ve helped me feel more alive. I can’t think of a greater gift.

We’ll be back at the CT Women’s Consortium later this month for another round of Reiki I for Mental Health Professionals and we can’t wait! 🤩

This class offers all the content and experiences that you’d find in a traditional Reiki I class with an additional focus on Reiki for mental health. It’s such a treat to be in a class with others who are doing similar work. All the questions are relevant. All the applications are relevant. It’s all made for YOU! And it’s always a good time.

Oh and did I mention you’ll get CECs for learning Reiki? Yup.

You can visit the CWC website to grab your spot before they’re gone.

And if you’ve already taken a Reiki I class, save the date for these other classes for mental health professionals that are coming up later this year.

July 16th - Reiki II
October 16th - Reiki III
November 13th - Advanced Therapeutic Reiki Techniques

Have you been curious about how Somatic Breathwork can support you but hesitant to try it? Join us tomorrow night to experience this modality in a supportive, beginner-friendly space.

Samara offers a unique approach tailored for women and Divine Feminine Embodiment. Her gentler method emphasizes allowing, receiving, and authentic expression, focusing on clearing and alchemizing stagnation in the chakra system and central channel, with special attention to the sacral, heart, and throat chakras.

This nurturing practice invites you to deeply connect with your bodymind, unwind stored energy and emotions (like anger, wrath, grief, joy, and pleasure), and liberate the authentic Self. She will end the ceremony with hands-on energy work and Reiki, ensuring that each participant leaves feeling grounded and clear.

This particular breathwork ceremony will focus on womb healing.

Hope to see you there. ✨

Last week I had the opportunity to speak with two different classes of peer support professionals in training. Every time I do this, I get so hyped up and passionate about empowering individuals with the tools and knowledge that I didn’t have when I entered the peer workforce at 23.

As a young person brand new to the concept of peer support, I thought I had to give my all to everyone no matter what. I didn’t know how to listen to my body and the ways it was warning me that burnout was imminent. I soaked up all the intense energies around me without the awareness of how to anchor into myself during interactions. My intentions were good, the work was important, but man was it challenging.

So last week I talked about somatic resonance, co-regulation, interoception, and why bottom-up healing matters. We talked boundaries and how to make this work sustainable. We practiced tracking ourselves and others while sitting together.

My hope is always that these conversations give future peer support professionals the chance to practice in a sustainable way from the START so they can do this important work for a very long time!

So grateful for these opportunities to stay connected with this community and share what I’ve learned. šŸ™

Looking for something different to do this weekend? We got you!

Join us tomorrow at Resonance to create a vision board designed with the vibe and structure of an oracle card. šŸ˜

Participants will have the chance to get clear on what energy they want to focus on as we move into spring and the rest of 2026. After that, you’ll take that intention or focal point and bring it to life through art. All who attend will walk away with their own unique piece of art that’s ready to display and a brand new source of inspiration, motivation, and alignment.

Grab a friend and join us for a creative, spiritual, and light hearted way to kick off the weekend. ✨

Big thanks to everyone who came out for our Full Moon Sound Healing & Reiki event last night!

The vibes were šŸ‘ŒāœØ

During our meditation we explored the energy of the libra full moon. Full moons represent culmination and completion. This lunation in particular brought up matters of balance, harmony, relationships, and beauty.

So as we continue to sit in this energy, you might journal or reflect on some of the questions below.

What is out of balance in your life right now?
How have you been sacrificing yourself for others?
What in your life feels like it no longer fits?
What needs to die to more life can be expressed through you?

I’ve been here, there, and everywhere over the last week or so. Or at least it feels like it! šŸ˜…

I just wrapped up a six day somatic experiencing training in Boston yesterday. Today, I was down at Foxwoods sharing Reiki and chair yoga at a special pre-conference day with some wonderful people. The highlight of today was getting to dance around with scarves with the one and only . Her face is that last picture really sums up the experience. Don’t you just love her?! 🤩

It’s interesting being here, there, and everywhere when you’re a breastfeeding mom. I’ve always got all the bags, all the ice packs, and whenever there’s a break in the schedule, I’m nowhere to be found. Because I’m shut away somewhere hanging out with my pump. āœŒļø

I know this isn’t part of my usual content but it’s certainly a big part of my life right now and for the next six months at least. So I thought I’d drop this into the proverbial waters of the internet ocean for all the other working moms out there who are juggling all the things and hustling to feed their babies in all the ways that we do. I see you.

And my piece of advice to all (moms and non-moms) this evening is to find a scarf and dance. You’ll be so glad you did!
