When we feel stressed or under threat, we don’t only attack or run or get stuck or give up.

:::We also turn to each other. We also come together.::

What about you? How are you responding to this moment?

Where are you noticing support?

Noticing our responses is a portal to embodiment, & noticing support is an opportunity for connection, & both of these together can help us access agency and right relationship.

I invite you to join me for a free community R&R session. If it resonates, I invite you to join me for a weekly rhythm of noticing, by which I mean a weekly ritual of remembrance.

Together, we attend with care and community to a practice of connection;
we complete incomplete cycles in our bodies while held within a wider container of belonging;
we rest fully into what is always, already here, so that we can show up fully in connection with this support.

THE RESTORATION SESSIONS
Sunday 8-9 PM EST

> join the free community R&R session on Sunday 18 January to get a feel for the container. The 6-week cycle begins the following week.

There is tiered pricing for accessibility and, if you were in a previous round, as always, please return for the cycle at half price.

Details and registration in the usual places, including comments below.

I hope you will join us.

I’ve been quiet on his platform, and I’ve been feeling quiet in general. Attuning to what it takes for the heart to navigate ageing parents, sickness of loved ones, and the inevitability of death. Knowing, too, the privilege and bittersweet gift of experiencing these as naturally unfolding, alongside ongoing genocide and unforgivable violence and cruelty.

Now firmly in middle age, I am orienting more and more towards sustainability and co-created spaces of support. Opportunities for our bodies to digest what they are holding in the nervous system and diaphragms. Opportunities to create more space and grow our capacity. Opportunities for our hearts and minds to move beyond enduring to taking aligned action as part of our inter-being.

IG doesn’t feel aligned anymore so while I’ll occasionally share news on here, I invite you to join my email list.

And I invite you to join the next round of The Restoration Sessions, beginning June 1. I’m away from my desktop and so haven’t yet updated the pricing, which means the early-bird rates are still up, and that does feel aligned.

I especially invite you to consider returning ($122 for the 6 weeks). Grateful for the public words above of the occupational therapist who shared why she is returning for a third cycle. Rhythm and repetition is medicine for our nervous systems.

Join us through the usual places. DM me with any questions.

In love and solidarity,
K

Social media offers some great education about the nervous system—and I see something really important getting left out.

When we feel stressed or under threat, we don’t only attack or run or get stuck or give up.

:::We also turn to each other. We also come together.:::

What about you? How are you responding to this moment?

Where are you noticing support?

Noticing our responses is a portal to embodiment,
& noticing support is an opportunity for connection,
& both of these together can help us access agency and right relationship.

I invite you to join me in a weekly rhythm of noticing, by which I mean a weekly ritual of remembrance.

Together, we attend with care and community to a practice of connection;

we complete incomplete cycles in our bodies while held within a wider container of belonging;

we rest fully into what is always, already here, so that we can show up fully in connection with this support.

There are two groups available to accommodate schedules and time zones.

A bonus session has been added, offering optional discussion and an additional practice for each closed group, making this now a 7-week container. The price remains the same for this cycle.

THE RESTORATION SESSIONS
Sunday 8-9 PM EST (from March 23)
and
Tuesday 12-1 PM EST (from April 1)

There is tiered pricing for accessibility and, if you were in a previous round, please return for the 7 weeks at 150 usd.

Are you a non-profit leader?

Join and from January 29 - March 4, 2025!

Together we will strengthen embodied practice, self-awareness, and interdependence to move away from cultures of urgency, competition, and scarcity.

WHO: All leaders in the non-profit sector, prioritizing and centering the experience of BIPOC leaders

WHY: Moving away from cultures of scarcity, urgency, and competition requires space to operate outside of our reactive state, to practice dreaming, and to try new things. Practice creates possibilities to lead in ways that don’t reproduce systems of scarcity, urgency, and competition. Rooting Leadership is designed as an antidote to the isolation of leadership.

WHAT: The program focuses on learning and practicing embodiment to increase self-awareness while strengthening interdependence and mutual support. In our time together, we will explore:

- Building comfort with change and uncertainty
- Letting go of perfectionism, exceptionalism, and imposter syndrome
- Moving away from appeasement and urgency culture
- Practicing interdependence

We meet Tuesdays, 11:30am-1pm EST.

Our Story

Anxious? Depressed? Feeling disconnected? Pranasacral offers a trauma-sensitive, non-invasive and integrative approach to your physical body, emotions, beliefs and spirit. Digestive disorders, chronic pain and insomnia all indicate a stressed system. We will work together to meet your nervous system where it’s at, and align with your resiliency. By reconnecting to your innate capacity for health, you can move away from pain, anxiety and despair. As your capacity grows, you deepen into ease, joy and connection. What to expect: The client remains fully clothed, while the therapist uses her hands to listen to the body. Informed by neuroscience, embodied anatomy and polyvagal theory, the client and therapist work together to allow the nervous system, organs and musculo-skeletal system to unwind tension patterns and trauma. This allows the body to release restrictions and correct imbalances, resulting in greater well-being, deeper relaxation and less pain. Mindfulness and yoga strategies may be incorporated to support the process.
