Healing Season: Sacred Bodies, Sacred Lands (opens in new tab)
New cohorts beginning September 23.
An 8-week deep dive, in community, into practical wisdom from Classical Chinese Medicine and deep ecology.
- understand and take care of the connections between physical and emotional health
- learn ways to metabolize your pain for the world through "the Work that Reconnects"
- learn how to practice qigong and self-acupressure, for self-care that gives a strong foundation for long-term well-being
In this process, we work with the innate healing intelligence inside each of us, and the wider web of life. We grow body-love, Earth-connection, more joy and pleasure in being alive, clarity, purpose, and compassion.

The Work that Reconnects | Monthly Online Community Circle
There's so much going on in this world we care about - and we need each other. We need to hear from others who care, and we need to be heard. In connection, we recover from disorientation, overwhelm, panic, and numbness, and find our ways to move forward with life-giving action.
Each month, we focus on one stage of the Spiral of the "Work that Reconnects" (WTR). The WTR is a body of practices, meditations and teachings, begun by Joanna Macy, that help us honor our pain for the world, come home to our belonging and interconnection, and find clarity and purpose.
No experience or prior participation necessary - come as you are, and welcome! In every session, I include the whole Spiral in some form, so you are completely welcome to join at any "stage."
Registration for Work that Reconnects community circles is on a "pay what you can" basis.
One-on-One Dreamwork
In a one-on-one dreamwork sessions, we explore your (sleeptime) dreams for healing, insight, inspiration, and guidance. In these sessions, you can
- share a dream or series of dreams with me to explore and discover what the dream is bringing you
- engage your dream with curiosity, body-awareness, intuition and attention to your life stories and symbols, until we arrive at the fresh truths - or new questions - that are waiting for you
- release stagnation in yourself that’s ready to move (whether at the level of body, mind, spirit, emotions, or other)
- deepen connection with the unseen in your life, in nature, and in our world
- and connect to new possibility
Although dreamwork is not therapy and I am not a therapist, I would describe dreamwork as therapeutic. It helps us understand ourselves, our relationships, and our lives more deeply, in fresh ways. Our dreams can help us let go of what we've been carrying, and guide us toward what's next. They give us a sense of clarity and fortitude as we move forward. And, they lead us to new questions. What are your dreams asking you?
