Contemplative Practices

Understanding how your mind and heart function and having access to that wisdom and experience is the foundation of a deeply embodied personal strength and capability. Practicing present moment awareness is an act of  Contemplative practice not only brings your mind and body into alignment, it offers insight into the unique gifts you bring to this earthwalk. The benefits include:

- humbled confidence & embodied personal power

- clarity & ability to witness truth even when it is difficult

- emotional regulation & resilience

- deep care for oneself & others

- trust in your inner wisdom & divestment from systems of oppression

I offer these facilitated contemplative practices not only because they have been invaluable to my own journey, but also because I wish I had an on-call mentor over the years.  We can lead ourselves in these practices and gain much from it. When done with another person or in community, the process is easier and the effects are amplified.
The contemplative practices I facilitate include meditation, tai chi, qi gong, aikido, authentic movement, and deep reflection.

Power Dynamics

In every relationship we have, power is present and active. We have an impact and are impacted by other people and the system we live within. By getting clear on the dynamics at play, we have more opportunity for connection and getting needs met, both personally and communally. Understanding our vulnerabilities and response-abilities clarifies our options and infuses our actions with deep caring. Bringing us into alignment with the flow of life and in harmony with those we hold dear, we can find ease and support in community.
