Community, it’s an honor to continue our efforts and support community of families and gente that have been deeply affected this year, not only the devastation of our L.A. Fires but through the violent separation of families.

Our work in solidarity and unity with our community is and has always been a grassroots effort of passionate healers, practitioners, activists, teachers who believe a better world is possible when enough care is given.

It has been a privilege and, most of all, a sacred duty to support folks where it’s needed.

❤️‍🔥 No one turned away, please invite folks who need support and healing in a safe and sacred space.

Thank you to our collective of Healers for this event.

Food is medicine: healing my torn hip labrum edition

Chicken feet is not only full of protein, and collagen; it contains glucosamine and chondroitin to help with joint and connective tissue health. Therefore making it anti-inflammatory.

Luckily I can still work and do most everyday things with a big emphasis on slowing, patience and stillness for recovery. Thank you to my boo for being the master chef in cooking all things as I slowly rehab and recover this journey from injury so I can eventually return to surfing and jiu jitsu I love.

Avoiding a cesarean for a breech baby 🐣

I understand for many pregnant persons having a breech baby presentation can be very worrisome as that could mean having to have an unexpected cesarean birth.

There are many reasons why a baby is breeched, and for many, cesarean is the best way of helping your baby come out to the world safely.

However with the combination of acupuncture, moxibustion, chiropractic care and massage therapy, your baby can have a chance at turning on their own, or to help an ECV be successful at turning your baby with the OB to avoid a c-section.

For those whose baby choose to stay breeched, know that acupuncture treatments can also help you let go and prepare your mind and body for a planned cesarean.

My recommendation is to start seeing your local acupuncturist at around week 34 for optimal results.

Sometimes we don’t even realize we are carrying the weight of the world on our shoulders and backs, because our society normalizes tension, stress and overwork.

How are you caring for the physical and mental load that is stored in your bodies?

TRIGGER WARNING: Content mentions language around pregnancy and loss, and may be triggering for some.

For some every month is still pregnancy and infant loss awareness month 🤍

Here are some ways Traditional Eastern Medicine can support those who have experienced loss(es) at any stage of pregnancy, at birth or early infancy.

We hope that you do not have to grieve in silence, and there is space to gently lean on community support for the deep wounds in the physical and emotional body.

Happy mid autumn festival 🌕🥮🍂

A time to moon-gaze and appreciate the full moon goddess for bringing us good health and harvest.

If capacity allows, this is a great time to reconnect with our community and chosen/ families.

Lastly, creating space to pay respect to our ancesters who have come before us, who lived through historical injustices and honoring their strength in healing ancestral trauma.
