MARROW is an unlearning, an unearthing, an emergence.
It is a kind of lifeline. A line back to ourselves.

One month from today...
We'll be sitting together harvesting the depths we have been traveling — independently and together — through the somatic, embodied and meditative process of MARROW . We also take time on the final day, to set intention and clarify how we will carry the learning and growth of MARROW into our lives and communities. What we embody in our wholeness through the marrow, we bring with us through the heartspace.
Nested in the retreat environment of KRIPALU , we will spend 4 days exploring, body sensing, storytelling, moving our cells, contemplating through meditation, writing and mark-making on paper, connecting with nature, and supporting each other in unearthing our innate capacity and vital energy.
This is what happens when we unlearn long-held patterns of moving and thinking, and embody with wildness and love.
This is what is possible, when we forge meaning in community and beyond verbal languaging.
This is what is unearthed when we sense and feel ourselves in our aliveness. ❤️‍🔥
Read these experiences shared by folks who have joined in the MARROW process.
And join us at KRIPALU in May!

How do you embody memory of other moments of yourself through intentional ritual? And what does this offer the You that is here now?
Last week, I sought sensory rituals of meaning to connect with my 1990s self 🫶🏼
Spending time in NYC, I walked streets that hold indelible memories, including my first relationship (3 happy years đź’–) and my first apartment. Then, a music concert from a band I last saw live in 1995.
As I was getting ready for the concert, I realized my hair is the exact same cut as it was in 1995. I wanted to remember more: creating a ritual by putting on the same kind of makeup I wore back then, and the exact perfume in the old bottle that sits at the back of my medicine cabinet.
My senses helped me dance between now and back then, playfully. Dimmed memories brightened to reveal meaning and appreciation. There was a kind of renewal in all of this, that is a reminder of the potency of sensory rituals.
Let us embody the memory of our peacock feathers 🦚 and layers of our becoming. 🌀
Your invitation: Invite yourself into ritual, visiting a specific time in tour life when you were happy, and connect this with your vibrancy — here and now 🌟

Sense the support within your body (especially through your skeleton), as well as the physical support present through your body's contact with your environment.
Notice what shifts and how you sense yourself.

With all of the intensity of this time, there is a quality in the natural world that can bring us into ease: sensing seasonality. The vernal equinox welcomes us into Spring, with the fresh energies of new growth and the thawing of Winter's edges. It is a time of deep transformation.
This Saturday, March 28th, we gather at the Berkshire Botanical Garden to walk, reflect, and connect with the learning from the natural world.
No experience with meditation is needed, and this community gathering happens rain or shine (we will meet inside the beautiful art gallery of the Center Building if it is raining).
Come to ease your mind. Come to connect with yourself. Arrive into embodied presence that carries your heart through the seasons. Be in community that is heart-centered and intentional. Witness the spring ephemerals in bloom. đź’š
Saturday, March 28th @ 4 - 5pm

ABOUT LAST NIGHT
An incredibly challenging week as the primary caregiver for my parent, requires finding pathways to relief and connection through sensing my body in movement that feels possible when I am fatigued.
It's not about getting something "right."
It's about moving for pleasure to remember my wholeness.
Let us remember that we never know what someone is holding or moving through.
What can you do today that supports your embodiment, in the midst of it all?
Keep going ❤️

Companioning with someone in their dying time, as a presence of care and support, is a deeply moving experience. đź–¤
Time changes shape. The air is thick. The meaning, in between the words, and in the moment there are no words left, is in the felt sense. My body feels the magnitude of the preciousness of a life and the strange beauty of the transition into death.
And it is also hard. Heavy. Messy. And outside of language.
In 2011, a dear man (who gave me permission to share stories of our time together), moved towards his own death centering connection in his life and kindly invited me — a complete stranger — to join him.
We connected through our shared passion for the "forbidden conversations" — as we fondly called them. He truly looked forward to these. When we were in full privacy, and while he was still able to speak, we explored what death and dying meant to him and he got to share all of the things he could not openly speak, to his family and friends.
We walked into the dark spaces, together. We laughed at the seeming absurdity of the birth - life - death cycle of being. He shared his worst fears, and his desire to die before things got much worse. We reflected on meaning, longing, grief, and LOVE. He liked to talk about love đź’—.
In his final days, I held his hand at his bedside, as he slowed down and gently slept the long, big sleep.
May we all rise in care for those who are suffering. May we be present to the process of dying, as much as our (U.S.) culture encourages us to be present for the process of birth or the ritual of marriage.
What if our dying time could be given as much attention, care, ritual, tending and felt meaning, as other life events?
And what if death is treated as a natural process, to be held in love, and to be present for?

My journey with internal martial arts has been long-held, filled with inspired curiosity, sporadic, and often without a shared verbal language with my teachers. It is always something I've hungered for more depth in.
It all began when I was sixteen, and my lifelong family doctor — a Chinese doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, herbalism and acupuncture — invited me into a ceremonial induction into the Dao.
I knew very little of what this meant at the time and could feel something beautiful and meaningful in it too. I remember this experience vividly, all of these years later.
I'm heartened to share I am now in an immersive learning and training time, in Qi gong (theory, root systems within Chinese medicine, and practice). This is thousands of years old, and brought into 2026 by those who share its wisdom body throughout the world.
In practicing Qi gong, I have consistently experienced qualities of grounding through my mind and fortification through my body (it does many things, and these are just two of the predominant qualities I enjoy through it).
There are many ways to sense and move. As with all movement (and depth behind the movement), it is about finding what is resonant and useful for each of us to function, express and live well.
I will be weaving this year's depth of learning into community movement & meditation experiences, private sessions, and retreats, with all of you đź’— Oh what fun we will have!
