Stone Path Press

Stone Path Press After 15 years of nursing my focused shifted to teaching Therapeutic Yoga and Hanna Somatic Movement. In 2020 my mother died with Medical Assistance in Dying.

This experience left a deep imprint. My focus now is sharing our powerful story through writing. I have been on a journey for as long as I can remember to learn to live as fully and freely as possible. There came a time when this became my vocation as well as my avocation. Stepping into a livelihood that you are passionate about is such a gift and a blessing. My passion to share what I have learned and continue to learn in the field of somatics has only grown. I sit here today with more questions than answers and this feels right. The work I teach is rooted in many somatic pioneers. Moshe' Feldenkrais and Thomas Hanna have had the greatest influence on my teachings and everything I teach has been birthed out of their pioneering work in the field of somatic movement and human development. I consider myself a lifelong learner. I believe humanity needs this work. It is about more than moving without pain... it is about FREEDOM. Education:

• Essential Somatics 3 Year Clinical Somatic Educator Certification 2017
• Somatic Systems Institute 3 Year Clinical Somatic Educator Certification 2012
• Critical Alignment Yoga Therapy Certification Level 4 - 2009
• Yoga North 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training - 2009
• Solstice Yoga School 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training 2008
• BSN in Nursing - 1992

Teaching History:

• Present - I am currently teaching Somatic Movement Classes online for anyone interested in diving deeper into Clinical Somatic Movement. I am also seeing clients for private sessions in person and virtually.

• 2015 - 2020 Essential Somatics, Arvada, CO - Program development, Lead teacher for Move Without Pain: The Fundamentals of Essential Somatics, ESMTT Levels 1 & 2, Senior teacher for the 3 Year Clinical Certification Program. Mentor for movement teachers and clinical students.

• I have travelled extensively across the United States, Canada, Australia, India, and the UK teaching Somatic Movement workshops to lay persons and those pursuing Certification as Somatic Movement teachers or as Clinical Somatic Practitioners.

• I am available for speaking engagements, workshops, corporate workshops, and individual clinical somatic sessions. I see individual clients who are working with chronic muscle and joint pain, mobility issues, post-operative gait issues, those who want to breathe better, and "weekend warriors" who want to balance their extreme activities with a gentler practice. My focus is on giving individuals the “somatic tools” to prevent injury, improve body awareness, and increase wellness. Backed by 25 years of assisting others to help themselves, I look forward to continuing to explore new ways to bring the important work of Clinical Somatic Movement to the world.

• 2016 - present Dr. Reddy's Pharmaceutical Company, Hyderabad, India - Clinical Somatic Speaker & Movement Teacher for the New Horizons Leadership Program.

Kick Ash Coffee is one of those wonderful community venues where everyone feels welcome. Carol Ash and her team have created a space where you can find great coffee, yummy food, the best homemade granola and lots of this and that items. For me, the best part is the bookshop (and the coffee… and the granola… and the salads!)

Last summer I would venture in there for a few quiet moments on a break, and take my time perusing the books. I let myself imagine that one day my book might grace this beloved Kick Ash book table along with all of the other authors I admire. I let my hands brush over hours of writing now disguised as paperbacks and hardcovers. I would take in the beautiful covers, still contemplating the title for my book and ponder should it be in color, should it be black & white… I love the gold embossment on this book… I would sit and sip my coffee and edit the final draft of Choosing to Die.

Well friends - I am happy to say that I am now on the Kick Ash book table! It is a quiet thrill for me to see the tangible evidence of a story I was compelled to share make its way into the world for others to find. Many of you reading this contributed to this endeavor and I will carry that gratitude in my heart forever.

For those of you who live in Door County, I will soon be announcing some author talks and book signings. Kick Ash is on the list. In the meantime, you can find a copy at theresaeevans.com if you can’t wait another second!

“We are all reveling in the light following our hard conversation in the morning. This is how it will be, I think; moments of light will intersperse with moments of dark. Our hearts will show up like dappled sunlight.” - Excerpt from Choosing to Die

Peace,
Theresa

LOVE.FAMILY.GRATITUDE.LAUNCH DAY JOY.

03/04/2026

Yesterday was such a sweet and thought-filled day as Choosing to Day was officially launched. Surrounded by family and friends who have supported this authoring journey. My heart is full.

02/26/2026

Choosing to Die will launch next Tuesday March 3rd! I feel a quiet sense of anticipation as this story I have spent over three years birthing into a book will soon be read by others.

How will my story land? I know what I meant when I wrote it, and I also know that each reader will filter my words through their own lived experience.

I trust common threads will connect us.

Mothering…
Daughtering…
Family…
Love…
Gardens…
Laughter…
Tears…
Sickness & health…
Living…
Dying…
Grieving…

But mostly - showing up. Showing up for another unconditionally for this exquisite, complicated, layered journey we call life cloaked and supported by our presence.

Have a lovely week.

What happens at the end of our life when it feels like we are loosing control and autonomy...

02/05/2026

OK folks, you might notice that I have been posting a lot of dishes, etc. on Market Place and the local buying/selling sites. I am helping someone settle their estate and he generously offered that anything I sell I can keep the $$ for my book promotion (which launches March 3) Promotion is costly. SO, come pick out some dishes or a tea set, or a bread machine - even if you don't need it. You can always donate the items and you support my book at the same time 🙂

"Thank you for sharing this, and congratulations on your upcoming book. What a powerful offering you’re bringing into the world. A story like that—told from the inside, told with love, clarity, and lived experience—has the potential to shift the entire conversation around end‑of‑life choice in this country. And I’m right there with you. Not everyone will choose MAID. Not everyone should. But every single person deserves the right to make that decision for themselves—without shame, without barriers, and without a system deciding whose suffering “counts” and whose doesn’t. Your advocacy matters. Your mother’s story matters. And your willingness to speak publicly about something so intimate and so often misunderstood is an act of courage that will help others feel less alone. Thank you for adding your voice to this movement. We need more people telling the truth from the heart of their own experience. Please send me the link or website to order your book I'd be honored to read it."
