Reader I literally just completed my Tobacco Dieta on the 29th. I have been walking with Tobacco formally since 2021. Tobacco has changed my life in so many ways. Tobacco continues to support me with clarity, cutting bullshit from my life, deepening my connection with the earth and all the allies, and grounding through all the realms. And as a result - protection and sacred boundaries even more so. This one was not easy and a big ooff lol and a forced surrender. That post-dieta glow! I am...

Reader, You love breathwork. Maybe you have for a while now or maybe it came into your life and quietly rearranged something in you that you are still integrating. Or did you find yourself talking about it to people who didn't ask? Maybe you notice what happens in a session and think.... not always, but sometimes, I wonder what it would feel like to hold this for someone else? hmmmm ...And then the thought passes, and you hear a voice... Because who are you to do this? You are not a therapist...

Reader, I don't talk about this enough. Not because I am shy about it, but because in this work I am always more naturally drawn to shining the light on the people I serve than turning it on myself. It feels more honest to speak about what I witness in others than to name what has brought me here to this space of breathwork. But today I want to do that. I have been walking the path of Spirit and service for a long time, informally since my early 20s and formally since I was 35.. I am now 51....

Reader, I get asked all the time, " What is Ceremonial Breathwork?" and I am going to explain my work in a minute. First off, I hold my ceremonial spaces in the spirit of Shamanism; I work with shamanic technologies to anchor and support frequencies and energies, as well as protect a space where a collective is coming together with a higher intention and prayer. The truth of it is - what I am doing would technically be called Shamanic Breathwork, but I cannot use that language because the...

Reader, Something happens in this training that I never tire of witnessing. People arrive with a story about who they are and what they are here for, and somewhere in the twelve months ( 10 months of teaching), not in a single breakthrough and not in one dramatic moment, but slowly, through the accumulation of breath and practice and being genuinely held, that story begins to shift. Not because anyone told them to change it Because the truth of who they are had more room to breathe. I want to...

Reader This month ahead excites me as I will be spending time with all my sisters who are gathering together from Nicaragua and Fort McMurray! Who knows what lessons will come together when the Sisters gather, spanning 51 - 33! There will be lots of laughter. It will be loud. Someone will cry, someone's feelings will get hurt. There will be more laughter. There will be love. This is a given! And I wouldn't change a thing! At the end of the month, I will be stepping into prayer with Tobacco...

Reader, Last week, my husband had his 54th birthday! It was quite funny that we both couldn't remember if he was 53 or 54, and then we finally got the math right. I am so grateful for him, for us finding each other in this lifetime - I know deeply that as a result of us finding each other in this incarnation, I have been able to fully surrender into my path. And yes - there is a story to the cake! Having Gerald as my partner has brought such deep healing for some of the core wounds I carry...

Reader, As many of you know, I have been deep in my prayer with the waters since I returned home from Glastonbury. I began in late May. Water asked me to simply focus on her. Connect with her daily, deepen into her teachings, and so I have. I have started almost every morning, literally praying in the water under the sun in a hot tub. I did a three-day water fast in June. I have been rooted in her as an element and guide. I have had various clearings, transmissions, and healings. I realize...
