Womb School

A pleasure forward seasonal immersion anchored in the womb continuum. Womb School is a membership community.

Womb School is a path through which you can connect, explore and gain fluency with your body and its cycles. A journey of engaging our cyclical selves, learning that we are dynamic and changing. A place to cultivate trust in diverse ways of knowing and innate body-mind wisdom. An experiential, practice-based and circular community following the rhythm of the seasons and our bodies.

The year of the Snake asked us to slow down. 🐍 To shed skins, release stories, roles, and patterns that no longer fit. To sit with the discomfort of truth, endings, and quiet softening. It was a year of honest growth, a return to the bones.

And now, something shifts ❤️‍🔥🐎 a new energetic chapter.

2026 arrives as the year of the Yang Fire Horse, carrying movement, momentum, and joy. The Snake turned us inward & Horse invites us forward. This is the energy of expansion after integration, of giving shape to our visions and dreams. Fire meets spirit and begins to bloom.

Horse energy reminds us to take risks that feel alive, to let joy, creativity, and relational attunement stretch our capacity. This year is about trusting the direction life has been quietly preparing us for.

In the womb and nervous system, this transition matters. We cannot run until we have rested. We cannot expand until we have integrated. Winter gives us the pause. Fire gives us the spark. 🔥❄️

As we cross this threshold together, we honor the full cycle, shedding, resting, remembering, and then moving again.

The Somatic Womb Path is rooted in aligning with these rhythms, and we’ll be opening doors VERY SOON.

If you’re a healing practitioner feeling the call to deepen your relationship with your inner cycles and guide others through this work, the waitlist for our 2026 cohort is open. 🌺 Link in bio!

What do you feel ready to move toward this year?

January invites us into a slower beginning ❄️
A moment to honor the pause that makes vision possible.

Winter is the pause in the cycle where the body empties, softens, and listens. Just as our menstrual phase marks a monthly inner winter, this season reminds us that vision doesn’t come from pushing forward, but from allowing space. When the nervous system settles, when the noise quiets, something deeper can be heard.

Just as the land rests before spring, the body rests before movement. In this stillness, the old sheds, the nervous system recalibrates, and something new begins to form beneath the surface.

As we step into a new year and into the Yang Fire Horse, we’re reminded that even strong forward energy needs grounding. Vision that emerges from rest is clearer, truer, and more sustainable.

Feel nourished during the pause and be sure to sign up for The Somatic Womb Path 2026 Waitlist. Doors will open at the beginning of Spring 🌸

When we practice Ting, we slow down enough to hear what lives beneath words, in tone, breath, sensation, posture, and silence. We begin to sense what is being communicated beyond language.

This kind of listening softens the body 🤍
builds trust and opens space for deeper, more honest connection.

In womb work, Ting becomes a way of attuning to cycles, boundaries, emotions, and the quiet intelligence of the body. The body is always speaking. The practice is remembering how to listen.

As we dive in the waters of winter, we’re invited into this receptive quality of listening, not only with one another, but with the land, the seasons, and our own inner rhythms.

This way of listening is foundational to how we teach inside The Somatic Womb Path ✨our 9-month certification program rooted in relational healing, cyclical attunement, somatics, and East Asian Medicine.

Seasons of the Womb 🌙✨ A free webinar to help you meet your womb, your seasons, and the circle that lives inside all of us.

In this recorded live workshop, we explored the deep connection between our wombs, nature, and the cycles that shape our lives. It was such a sweet class, and we’re so happy to offer the recording as a gift to our community for a limited time.

Kidneys are the organ of Winter and are linked with the Water element. They store our primordial Yin and Yang and govern the major aspects of our vital fluids. This is our root system, the home of ancestral qi and jing. You can think of our Kidneys as a storage house of energetic reserves, almost like a sacred savings account we draw from throughout our lives.

A reminder that our growth cannot happen without deeply nourishing our roots. 🖤 Winter teaches us how to descend, root, replenish, and build the vitality that carries us into spring.

THE SOMATIC WOMB PATH 2026 will open for enrollment soon! 🌹Sign up for the waitlist for our 2026 cohort and reserve your spot for next year! LINK IN BIO 🔗🖤

Winter arrives as a quiet teacher 🌬️❄️ inviting us to soften into stillness, to listen more closely, to remember that rest is creation too. As nature turns inward, so do we, shedding what is no longer needed and tending the hidden roots of what’s to come.

These days open like a doorway, guiding us toward the unseen places of the spirit. It’s a time to nurture what sleeps beneath the surface, to honor the parts of us that are quietly waiting for light. In this tender pause, reflection becomes prayer, and dreaming becomes devotion.

A gentle reminder to rest, to dream, swim in imagination and to remember the beauty that lives inside silence. 🕯️🌌 As we prepare for the upcoming year of the Somatic Womb Path, we honor this sacred integration time as part of the arc of our journey.

Our waitlist for the 2026 Cohort of the Yang Fire Horse is already filling up. Feel free to join the list if you feel called to join us next year 💙

There is always something tender about reaching the end of a Somatic Womb Path cycle. A whole year of showing up to ourselves and to each other. A year of practicing vulnerability, attuning to the body, unraveling old patterns, and learning how to hold another human with more clarity and care.

By the time we reach Water, something in the collective field has softened. We know each other, we understand the places where fear lives and try our best to sit with it without collapsing. This final season always brings a deeper intimacy, with self, with the group, and with the mystery that moves through all of us.

Water asks us to descend.
To listen differently.
To enter the slow, quiet spaces that only open when we stop pushing and let ourselves be held.

Here’s to all the learnings, the tenderness, the resilience, and the quiet power that this cohort has held together. THANK YOU, WE LOVE YOU!

Water closes the circle, and it does so with depth, with softness, and with the wisdom of everything we’ve lived through this year. 🌀 The waitlist for our next cohort is now open. Link in bio!

We are made of Essence, this Essence is called Jing: the deep well that holds our vitality, our ancestry, and the blueprint of our potential.

Jing lives in the Kidney–Adrenal system, the Water element of the body. It’s our backup battery, our long-term savings account, the place our system draws from when life asks more of us than usual. When we’re depleted, overwhelmed, or living in survival mode, we pull from these reserves faster than we can restore them.

Menstrual blood is an expression of Jing. This is why our inner winter, our bleeding time, asks for slowness, warmth, and tending. And during the Earth’s Winter season, Jing naturally gathers and concentrates. The body invites us to simplify, conserve, and move with intention.

Water is connected to fear in the Five-Element map. Not just fear as an emotion, but fear as a survival imprint, the deep instinct that protects us, warns us, and remembers what has shaped us.

When fear has no container, it spills, overwhelms, or hardens us.
When held, it becomes wisdom.
Working with Water is learning how to hold fear with context instead of collapsing into it.

These are the foundations we explore in our final immersion of The Somatic Womb Path, Be Like Water: Integration & True Receiving, how Water responds to safety, how fear transforms when it’s held, and how to cultivate rooted practitioners who can hold others without draining their own wells.

🌀 THE SOMATIC WOMB PATH is a 9-month certification in East Asian Medicine, Somatics, and Embodied Neuroscience. We begin with tending our own body-practitioners, then expand into holding space for clients with clarity, presence, and cyclical attunement. The waitlist for our next cohort is open! Link in bio.

The Water element is our deepest reservoir. It governs the kidneys and bladder, our Jing reserves, our survival instincts, and the quiet places inside us that sense danger and safety before the mind has time to interpret anything at all. Water carries fear, wisdom, ancestry, and the power to endure, storing the impressions of everything we’ve lived through and everything our lineage has kept.

When Water is balanced, it moves with clarity and steadiness. When it’s strained, we can feel overwhelmed, hypervigilant, drained, or shaken by fears that don’t match the moment we’re in.

Understanding Water is understanding the roots of our survival responses, the ways our bodies remember what our minds have forgotten. Understanding Earth is understanding how we hold those responses with presence instead of collapse, offering the grounding, containment, and steadiness that help our inner waters settle and return to their natural flow.

Through the lens of East Asian Medicine, we understand Earth as the balancing force that guides all our internal elements, taking us on a journey of unity and peace.

Each season at Womb School, we gather for Office Hours, a live space where we bring our studies into practice, weaving case studies, soft skill development, and embodied business wisdom.

This morning, 💧 we embodied the Water Element in our Winter Office Hours, the last of 2025 💧 exploring what it means to root into flow and courage through uncertain times. The Water Archetype: The Artisan, invites us to trust the unseen currents, to create from stillness, and to let intuition guide the shape of what we bring into form, and the willingness to be changed by what we feel. 🪞💦

Our themes:
➰ Exploring how we hold ourselves and our businesses through times of uncertainty.
➰ Remembering the interwoven relationship between Yin & Yang, Fire & Water, Self & Collective.
➰ Navigating through fear and harnessing the Courageous Heart within our businesses.

Our flow:
〰️ A Moxa Pole Demo 💨
〰️ Building relationship to the Archetype of Water: The Artisan 🤲🏼
〰️ Honoring the wisdom and rooted magic of Water
〰️ Open Q&A + case study reflections
〰️ Closing in community

Our Jing is the seed of life itself, the well of vitality that fuels our hormonal, reproductive, and creative rhythms.

🌀 As one of our teachers here at Womb School, Dr. Kris González, shares, “The most damaging way to squander our Jing is living out of sync with nature.”

When we live aligned with the cycles, our breath, our blood, our seasons, we begin to replenish what modern life so easily drains. Our Jing reminds us that slowing down is how we remember who we are.

In our final workshop of The Somatic Womb Path 2025, Journey of Jing, we
✨ Explored Jing Essence & why it matters
✨ Revisited the Three Golden Opportunities
✨ Mapped our individual Jing Journeys
✨ Learned to protect and nourish our life force
✨ Demystified Inner Alchemy practices

And as we close this cycle, we prepare for the next... 🌗 The Somatic Womb Path 2026 Cohort waitlist is OPEN!

If you’re a practitioner who’s heart feels the pull to journey with us, to study the body as a bridge between nature and spirit...

This time of the year invites us to slow down and listen for the quieter rhythms beneath the surface. To trust the steady pulse of nature: the turning of Earth, the inhale and exhale of our wombs, the balancing of yin and yang within us. 🌗

We are learning to distill the essence, to release what is no longer needed, to root our clarity in integrity, and to remember pleasure as our birthright.

This is sacred timekeeping, where Earth’s wisdom meets the nervous system, and we remember that our bodies are not separate from the seasons. 🌿

If you’ve been feeling the call to deepen your practice, to live more in rhythm with your own inner cycles…
