Allow yourself to be a beginner at handling this pandemic.
Adapt to New Risks

New book response at Curious, Healing. Have you read this? Comments welcome!

• Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Online sessions offered
I offer online sessions for body-centered trauma work via Zoom, Wednesday-Friday and one Saturday per month. I can help you manage triggers, contain emotions, settle your nervous system, and more. Contact me to schedule. I look forward to working with you!

I will resume in-person bodywork sessions when I am not putting clients at risk of catching COVID-19 through close proximity in an enclosed space.

Grieving in solidarity
My heart goes out to Black people murdered and traumatized by police, to everyone living in fear of violence and murder committed by the people in charge. My heart goes out to all of us damaged by the delusion of White Supremacy. Recommended reading for white folks: Me & White Supremacy: How To Check Your White Privilege, an interview with Layla Saad by Zoe Beaty.

Hello, you don't know me at all; I'm here via network.

However, Braiding Sweetgrass CHANGED MY LIFE. It's one of the most beautiful and meaningful books I've ever read.

Hello! Thanks for stopping by. And, agreed!

I like "be a beginner". Novel risks need new reactions.

[sonia]

Yes. I'm finding that it's exhausting just trying to figure out the right things to do.
