Dear Community,

One of the biggest themes I’m presently navigating is how to create a life that incorporates my diverse array of interests. I’ve had moments where I’ve longed for the seeming simplicity of folks who seem to have one strong clear mono-passion. Perhaps I see them online posting for YEARS about that same topic. I sometimes tell myself stories that if that were me, I would be more successful, if I wasn’t split into 5 directions and counting.

I’m letting that story go. This past year has been a beautiful experience of CHOOSING the messy and complex magic of being a multi-passionate human with consistently evolving interests…and although yes challenging, I’m letting it be creative, playful, curious and loving practice, to grow a garden of many colors in my spirit house.

Today we’re talking about the diversification of my session work. healing work? Do I even want to call it healing anymore?

Is it a healing session? a ceremony? a work of co-created living art?

Maybe it will heal something in you? Maybe it will offer you the space and support needed to let go of tension, or move something in you, or open something in you, or who knows what.

OKAY. Let’s get to it. Story time.

Princess and the Pea Births A New Vision

Some months ago I attended a beautiful morning breathwork session, having a good ol’ time, feelin’ feelins, flowing with insights, and yet… hmm. The surface I was laying on felt a bit too firm and my sacrum was calling out to me throughout the session, wishing that it was supported with more cushy cushion because I cam sometimes be a bit princess & the pea.

and then, as my visions often come, in an instant I saw a session that I would’ve LOVED to be receiving in that very moment, and that I would love to offer YOU, that incorporate 3 practices I’ve studied and love so much…

1. Breathwork — open the channels, waking up the body, snowglobe shaken, rivers flowing… (20 min)

2. Sacral Hold — Being held. Grounding. Letting what’s moved begin to settle softly…spacious, quieting… (20 min)

3. Belly Massage — Things have moved, body is grounded, soft…bring in encouraging manual touch, now that the riverbed is softened, reshape the clay, open up space for more energy to flow as you move through your day, your life….(20 min)

   Of COURSE we’ll begin and end the session with a gentle check-in with tea at the altar. of COURSE all of your feelings are welcome.

I’m calling it Sacrum Belly Breath because I very simply prefer the sound of that to the in-order Breath Sacrum Belly.

Would you like to join me in this experiment? I’d love to see how these session feel for you.

Book Sacrum Belly Breath here

If you’ve never received abdominal massage, this will be a great opportunity to see what it’s like to receive touch there. It is one of my favorite things to receive. I find it to be an incredibly moving experience.

If you’ve never done breathwork, I’ll guide you along the way and as you’ll only be in active practice for about 20 minutes, it’s a good chance to try something new without committing to a longer sesion.

If you’ve never had your sacrum held (while lying on your back), oh my dear darling, I invite you to settle in.

This offering is not yet on my website, so the only place you can book is thru the link above. If you’d like to ask any questions to understand more, please reply to this email and we’ll start a conversation.

and to my dearest LA darlings, I will be leaving LA August 1st and I don’t know what the future holds, so if you’d like to share in sacred space together, please come soon.

Warm Hug

☆ ♡ Much Love,

Mari ☆ ♡
