THIS.

is offering a screening of a special film that explores the human horse bond. has done an incredible job and I’ve only seen the first half.

Horses are honest. They want the best for their herd- which includes us humans!

Nov 29- Dana and Krissana will be there for a Q&A after the film.

Feeling this post by . I’ve been spending my mornings outside adoring the trees, cacti. Allowing their patterns to influence my movement practice. It is really lovely- and then a neighbor walks by with their dog and I immediately shrink. Don’t mind me, I’m practicing my tango with the Mesquite; I’m perfecting the circle and reminding my body what round is with this Prickly Pear.

Why don’t you fit into clothes? Why are you so tired? Why didn’t you have fun at the party? why do you have to p*e, again? What’s wrong now?

It’s time to join forces with our bodies. They are our greatest ally.

What a glorious Play class we had Saturday! Thank you founders and for facilitating another fun, insightful, connecting course.

We talked, we played, we connected. Brigit and Griffin helped us to explore the continuum of what we like and don’t like and they ways these signals are masked (even to ourselves).

Every BODY deserves to feel good. And know what feeling good feels like.

It’s been a long day in my chair and my buns need a break. Veggies need chopped. So prone on the table it is. Working in some dreaded back extension on my favorite table.

In this course we explore play as a state of the nervous system. A state that allows for curiosity, exploration, engagement, openness, flexibility, rewiring. This is a continuum.

Play states are contagious! As a therapist it is imperative that you are functioning in this state in order to interact with your client effectively.

This course also discusses using play with other mammals (horses and dogs in this case).

We discuss and experience using play to re-wire pain, fear, trauma, and other repetitive patterns. Play is medicine 🦋



DM or email me if interested. Group rates, scholarships available. Geared for therapists but anyone is welcome.

Feeling this.

Somehow my dogs and horses have their winter coats- this wasn’t something on their to do list. My body is craving root veggies not because I read they are good for me.

Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

I had a lovely discussion with Siri about myofascial release (MFR)- here’s a clip and the full discussion is on my website. She put into words some of the feelings I’ve experienced with a supportive framework and the type of ease experienced with plants, embodied women and horses.

In a recent viewing of the horses were described as accepting you as you are; as seeing you as whole just as you are in the moment. This type of presence is a timber to lean on and get your bearings. A barrier being held to allow you/your body to shift and soften as it needs.

I experienced this when I received an MFR treatment with Siri 🌟💕🌀 she will be offering group movement and individual MFR sessions at the Synchrony retreat.

Also at the retreat- movement, art, somatic experiencing ; individual and group photo shoots .wingerath ; song circle .music ; somatic experiencing, touch ; horse interactions and connecting

I’ll be facilitating and offering restorative positioning. All at the tranquil and rooted

Get in synch with yourself, this wonderful community and the land.
