YOUR LIFE MATTERS
What You Do With It Matters
How you live makes a difference.
How you think matters. Your voice matters.
What you put out into the world affects us all but
you more than anyone...
What is Resilience all About?
It's about self-reliance. It's about re-creating your life without feeling lost.
It's about cultivating a healthy INTER-dependence with others also on a path of their own determination. It's about finding and embodying your values and your deepest desires when things fall apart.

AWARENESS LESSONS
The innate intelligence of the body responds faster than thought. It resides in sensory, felt input from your nervous system that has access to a form of knowing unavailable to the conscious mind. When you live in continuous stress, it arouses your fight/flight system. Hormones flood your body, increasing heart rate and making access to relaxation dormant. Mindful movement, however, is a way to calm the nervous system. Movement with Awareness expands your inner and your outer senses. It allows you to surrender thought, while moving into spaciousness. This activates your remembrance of the dance of delight that is the essence of embodiment. Cultivate your inner knowing by floating like a river into that zone beyond thought, beyond words. This is a part of the Trauma Release MethodTM that restores your body. #MOVETWITHTHEFLOW

WRITING LESSONS
To make sense of life, you tell stories. Every day. Resilient people are different from most people, though, because they let the story morph and change. The creativity of writing reveals that you create a new narrative easily, one that works for you, instead of against you. Express those overwhelming emotions that threaten to engulf you. When you see your own story as fiction, you acknowledge that all perception is composed of beliefs and expectations. Life is not logical. Enter into a way to create beauty out of heartbreak. A life lived, people loved and lost, wisdom accrued equals a new level of creative acumen. A keen mind and sharp wit can pierce the soul as easily as a needle passes through cloth. The practice of writing hones your ability to grasp the meaning that life has kept you too busy to process. One of the most fulfilling experiences in life is to give your understanding wings through creative expression. This is a part of the Trauma Release MethodTM that restores your creativity. #WRITEINFLOW

Hello! Call me a life design coach! I help you design a life that feeds your soul, irrespective of past trauma or loss. I have spent decades, since childhood, instinctively using the disruptions of trauma to enact dramatic new beginnings. I have had my hands on thousands of people as a massage therapist over 20 years, feeling the way that trauma seats itself in the tissues of the body. To survive the sheer physical stress of working with that many people in pain on a regular basis, I took on the Feldenkrais Training (2000-2004) which explained - without words! - how deeply trauma affects the ability to feel safe in the world. I recovered from years of addiction, followed by years of abuse by discovering a sure path out of the dark pain of devastation. Along the way, I came to some unique conclusions about how to access the root of the problem, based on concrete results. The body doesn't lie.
And during the ensuing years of joy, which happened after I became willing to relinquish the pain. I came to a new place within myself. I wish to share this process with you, because I feel very strongly that with this work, no one need suffer. I also feel very strongly that no one should ever have to suffer. Ever. Pain is an adaptation, a response. It is not supposed to be where you live. It is feedback, that tells you something's gotta give, and if you have the courage that is your birthright, it I'm here to help you determine that it's not going to continue to be you.
I am a somatic movement practitioner specializing in trauma resolution. I have extensive experience with all kinds of therapies and mediation practices. I have been teaching professionally since 2002. I have been trained in recovery protocols for veterans with PTSD by the iRest Institute. In 2015 I obtained my Masters Degree In Writing and Certification in Teaching Writing two years later. All this I bring to give you the very best, exclusive solution to living in the complete uncertainty of long-term grief and trauma. It's time to do things differently. It's time to tell a new narrative, one that empowers you to live in peace. In this season of my life, I have come up with a clear systematic pathway that you can easily learn for yourself, to free yourself from the ravages of loss and replace it with internally sourced inspiration, creativity & comfort. All this is wrapped up inside the promise I make to you to show you the way back to your own innate resilience and joy.

Feldenkrais? Awareness Through Movement?

Rather than a theory of how humankind can improve, the Feldenkrais Method is a simple, practical process for intrinsic learning and motivation. It is based directly on scientific method: the process of creating an experiment with constraints and then observing the results. The medium is movement because the feedback is immediate. The result of learning this is exponential. Feldenkrais is named after the founder of the Method, Moshe Feldenkrais, who brought us this amazing way to apply the principles of physics to use gravity to stabilize balance and access less wear and tear on the joints. It cultivates extreme sensitivity to distinctions enriching enjoyment of life AND spontaneity. Awareness Through Movement is the class format which allows for inexpensive access to the masses. Functional Integration is the private session format which is a one-on-one with a highly trained practitioner who embodies the work and can jump-start your progress.
