Flow Acupuncture

beyond the realm of the mind, before the realm of language and perception,

there is a realm of being. of presence. of listening for the response of the body to the stimuli around us.

in a world that profits from our confusion, fear and disembodiment, can we trust in our body-breath-spirit?

if you close your eyes, and repeat the following sentences to yourself, what do you feel in your body?

“i am deeply connected to the world and everything that exists,” or “the earth below me holds me up, the water flows from rivers to my cells, the sky around me feeds me breath.”

notice your breath, chest, belly, face, shoulders, arms and legs.

when the fascia of the body, the breadth of the breath, and the tenor of the spirit relax upon hearing a thought,
it is an indication that the thought is true.

may we come home to the breath in us

may we find freedom in the fascia of our bodies

may we resonate with the energy of the spirit that moves around and within us

may we be the medicine we need in this disembodied time by letting our body be the extraordinary vessel it is

if this kind of embodied healing work calls you, join us for one (or all) of our many offerings:

yoga, qigong, reiki, acupuncture and classical chinese medicine to remind us of the medicine we are.

feeling all the layers of things these days.
perhaps you are, too. the grief and the openings. the beauty and the atrocity. the mundane and the monumental. i’m struggling with the balance of it all—and what words to say to navigate it. if you’re feeling it, too, just know i’m with you.

🤲🏽


the soft petals, open

thresholds and passages waiting to be

walked through, bursting

blooms of life - remind us

solidarity frees and community restores; tend

the cuts, wounds and exposed scars; witness

ocean and sky, infinite and unending

and clouded from time to time - trust

in the Way, the oneness we are

Very much looking forward to this first ever fully remote/virtual collective journey of sharing our stories, excavating our body-mind and ancestral wisdom and finding freedom from our most limiting narratives. Please spread the word to your loved ones. The course will run when we have between 8-15 people who are committed to the journey. We hope you join us.

we can look in any direction and see the increase in state-sanctioned violence. we know that this is our reality.

these ✨virtual community healing circles✨ are for you, if, in facing this reality:

~your heart aches and shatters and your mind spins and scatters
~the grief feels overwhelming, suffocating, paralyzing
~the breaking of our communities is breaking your spirit open
~you show up on the frontlines of movements for justice and human dignity
~you bring awareness and curiosity to places where ignorance hides
~you know that hope is a discipline and the work needs our fortitude
~you know that we are responsible to our community, ourselves and the world
~you know that sustenance is required in the bodymind to help us withstand the onslaughts that fascism brings
~you know that no one gets free alone, heals alone, thrives alone
~you are seeking places that hold, tend and bolster you
~you need help sustaining your kidney yang, your willpower, your essence, your wisdom in the face of fear
~you’ve been taught to stay hard in the struggle, but hunger for soft and supple
~you want to flow like water (tsunami or river as needed) to erode 🧊 and other toxic things...

✨a virtual community healing circle
✨1st, 3rd and 4th sundays at 11am starting February 1!

🤲🏽 with a guided yoga nidra (conscious sleep that helps us to tap into a deeper state of rest. a reminder that rest does not equate escape— restoration and attention coexist)

🔥 we get grounded, we get clear(er), we get free(r)

registration required via link in bio. zoom link will be sent via email after you register. registrations are available for up to 30 days in advance! donations welcome.

if you’re looking for some grounding before Feb 1, head to our link in bio for a free download of a yoga nidra guided by henaz; perfect for when your body needs a deep sense of rest, you want to practice presence, and when the waves of grief are coming and you want to invite waves of compassion alongside them 🤲🏽

In the heart of grief, we live

Grief flows through the cracks of the world, Where harm and hurt run deep,
It carries the weight of the empty hole in us, And wakes what we’ve tried to keep.

From pain, something powerful grows,
A flower rising from sorrow’s seed,
Gentle, yet fierce, it holds us,
And heals what the system bleeds.

In the face of violence, grief is medicine,
Not to destroy, but to mend,
It gives us strength to keep loving,
To resist, to rise, to bend.

Grief is not something to push away,
It’s woven in the air we breathe,
To hold our grief is to hold our life,
And in that, we are free.

Join us for our Digesting the Transition into Spring workshop this upcoming Saturday, 4/12 at 10:30am. Lets learn from the Spring about the uses of anger (thank you, Audre Lorde) through dialogue, journaling, yoga, qigong, acupuncture, and reiki. Register online (link in bio) or text us @908-845-5048 to reserve your spot.

The spring transition is a beautiful and timely teacher. With every blossom of growth comes the unsung hardship of pushing, birthing, through layers of soil. There is a reminder of the magic that lays beneath us and around us—working feverishly for us to reap the rewards. We look at the first buds and see birth and beauty. The magnolias and tulips burst forth supple and vibrant, just as daffodils shower their gold against returning green. The return of robins and bird flocks in flight against bluer skies and longer days feels full of new energy.

And all the while, spring reminds us that birth comes from the ancestral wisdom, clarity and vision of the times before. The myth is that spring brings new life: no life is born anew. All life is born along a lengthy and spiraling journey to manifestation.

In Chinese medicine, the spring connects to the liver, gallbladder, the emotion of anger and the environmental factor of wind. There is no capacity to break through uncharted territory without the qi of anger—of justice finding its own unfurling, of the wind quickly changing our course, of the underground railroads of mycelial, plant, animal and human ancestors laying the groundwork for the burst.

As the planets of Mercury and Venus begin to also station direct this week, we will be called on to march forward with vision, clear speech, loving anger and the reminder of humility that is embedded in all growth.

May we learn from our Spring teacher as it shows us how to be glorious and humble, angry and benevolent, and inherently free.

“healing is an act of communion” -bell hooks

this bell hooks quote hangs in our studio space as a reminder that the freedom we all seek happens best in community - our interconnectedness is undeniable.

you don’t need to know the people sitting beside you to feel the collective frequency of healing in the room. to be receiving care alongside others is an invitation to strip away the illusion of separateness; it is an act of empathy, of holding. it affects us on a deep energetic level, whether or not we are aware of it in the moment.

for this reason, our community-based offerings are some of our favorite moments at Flow.

we love getting to create this space alongside each of you and are grateful for your trust.

all our community offerings are on lower sliding scales, so you can receive the care you need at our most accessible costs.

we hope to see you soon, flow community 💕 register for one of these offerings via link in bio:
community reiki, community acupuncture, flow breathe be (yoga & qigong class) and/or acu-detox + reiki circle

03/06/2025

hope y’all find your way to one or more of these offerings this month.
