Autumn Equinox
Is it in your shoulders?
Does it sit in your low back?
Do you need to stop your day for headaches?
Do you reset due to insomnia?

Spring is here.
I wake each morning with a short delay before I remember the times in which we are currently living. Then I take a moment to enjoy the sunshine through the tree making light and shadow dances on my bedroom wall. I follow my breath in and out. I feel simple gratitude for this day. How are you? In what ways are you nourishing yourself? I have been trying to figure out how to best maintain community while in isolation. News from Italian friends share that they schedule video cal

Laughter as medicine
One of the most important things we can do to help our immune system now and any time is to laugh. If you are using social media, I'm sure you’ve noticed ample jokes and funny memes circulating about covid19. My 9 year old shared a joke another third grader made up. It wasn’t particularly funny, but I laughed because it is just so human to find or at least look for the funny even in the most serious of situations. It’s good for us! When you laugh your body releases endorphins

Floating into 2020
Yes, we are here together floating into the New Year of 2020. I have often wrapped up a decade by looking back in reflection and forward in anticipation. Have you? My earnest approach sat in hopes of weaving lessons from my past to dreams for my future. My practice for these weeks coming into 2020 is to actually do absolutely none of that weaving. My current practice is to relax into each present moment. My commitment to this is for the sake of my own physical and emotional h

The patient is the teacher
The framework of CST approach upends the hierarchy of traditional healthcare models of top down therapist to patient. I explore this notion.

What does this certificate mean for you?
In 2010, when I first starting digging into what it could mean to practice CranioSacral Therapy, I had just had a baby. I wasn't thinking about certifying with Upledger Institute, I was simply pulled by a deep curiosity toward this work and was researching all avenues to be able to learn it. In 2012, while living in Hong Kong I was still researching CST and the opportunity to attend a class with UI came up. It was in the Pok Fu Lam neighborhood, just a bus, a boat, a tram and

Why I do this work
Recently a sage wise woman I collaborate with was walking with me as I dig to the bottom of why I do this work. I'm exploring with her my self, patterns, goals, dreams and how I navigate in a world that doesn't always get what I value. CranioSacral Therapy is about your self empowerment, your self actualization, about you. Many of you come to me in pain. And I walk together with you until that pain resolves. From a place of feeling good in your body, a lot of other things can

stillness
It's no secret that I love practicing CranioSacral Therapy And one part of this practice that is deeply fulfilling is the inner prep-work I do before a session even begins. Each time, I prepare by sitting in silence for 10 minutes. In this time, I'm bringing myself to meet stillness. What does it mean for me to bring myself to stillness? I'm coming into awareness of my body, deepening my breath, bringing myself to a neutral state of attention. My body is where I live, it's m

CST and your ANS system in the New Year
CranioSacral Therapy holds the potential to greatly help an automatic portion of our nervous system called the autonomic nervous system (ANS). It is that part of your central nervous system which controls the things you don’t think about, but that your body does daily including digestion, elimination, breath and cell regeneration. Your ANS functions best when in balance. When a patient receives CST, she moves into a parasympathetic state a.k.a. “rest/digest” and her entire ce
