Arriving at my weekly ‘Qigong through the Seasons’ class yesterday, I greeted the space, and took a moment to feel into the release of showing up with no other purpose than to move and to breathe and to connect to the skies and to connect to the earth.
In these sticky and often frightening times, being able to come back to the body and to feeling ourselves in community feels so necessary. I’m so grateful to all that show up to do this.
Since January I’ve also been teaching a class as part of the Rest, Repair, Recover Network. Let me know if you’d like more info about any of my offerings, or if you’re curious about working 1:1 with me (post on that coming soon).
I recently opened the doors to my hypnotherapy practice - what a trip! To those who have worked with me already: thank you for your trust!
Now feeling ready to share this more widely: my website page is up and running - see link in bio. It lays out my approach. In short: Cognitive Hypnotherapy that is trauma-sensitive and includes somatic integration & nervous system regulation from an attachment lens.
Thanks to all the teachers and healers over the years, and a special shout-out to @the_quest_institute & @carmenspagnola for all of their support, wisdom and teachings.
I work both in-person and online, and I offer some low-cost sessions for those on a lower income.
Free discovery calls available. Link in bio!
Qigong through the Seasons started almost 2 years ago. 2 years!
We meet every Thursday morning, most of the time in person, in Bristol. Occasionally online if the weather is too brutal. Hugging trees is optional.
I love teaching this class. It helps me land when I feel untethered. It’s a beautiful shifting community of people. It’s the only constant in my week as I navigate life as an artist and a healing arts practitioner.
I’ll be doing more online stuff soon. Reach out if you want to be kept in the loop.
I return to this tree every week, and share practice with a wonderful group of humans. We come and go. It remains, steady. Offering us support and solace week after week.
It also makes for a great umbrella.
This morning I resisted showing up. Tired of the rain and damp. And then I arrived to this spectacle. I felt instant relief and connection.
Thanks to those who join me in this space, and the bird song.

Drop-in classes coming up: ‘Flow into Spring’
We start in 1 week - 19th March - every day for 7 days.
Join for a one off or make it a week-long daily practice.
The Spring Equinox is a great time to get stagnant energy moving.
I’ll be using the week as a bit of a reset and a chance to connect into Spring’s wood energy. I’ll send out simple guidance and suggestions for those who want to use this week as an opportunity to drop into a week of liver love and regenerative self-care.

Thursday morning Qigong continues in Greenbank, Bristol. This weekly practice has become a bit of a home for me over the last 18 months. Big thanks to Heather Logan for covering class when other work takes over and I can’t flex; and thanks to all the colleagues & collaborators who are happy to start later with me on Thursdays!
I’m planning a week-long online morning practice to mark this year’s Equinox. This is a really great time of year to get our bodies moving and flowing again as we come out of Winter. A regular group practice can support that greatly. We’ll start on the 19th. We’ll do some lymph/breath/general flow practices. Qigong based with some free flow. You can take the girl out of the improv dance world but you… 🤓

Took a bit of space at the lake today from an intense period of learning & studying, alongside keeping all the other plates spinning. I recently sent out a newsletter -link in my bio- if you’re interested in reading up about what I’m up to these days, besides resting under my cap.
Dm me if you’d like to join my mailing list.
Feeling blessed to have been invited on this @qtineuk adventure and to be a part of 12 Last Songs in Strasbourg on Saturday.
