Thank you so much to Molly @blissfulhealingvt for Thank you so much to Molly @blissfulhealingvt for hosting me & the 11 other magical beings for Lomi Ha breathwork yesterday! We had a powerful journey & moved a lot of energy. Folks are really feeling the heaviness of the world right now & breathwork is such a potent tool for clearing out the muck & channeling PEACE. It starts with each of us & then ripples out to heal the collective. Join us for another round April 11, 2-5pm. Comment below with questions or reflections about the practice of Hawaiian Lomi Ha.

Coming up on Saturday March 7th I will be co-leadi Coming up on Saturday March 7th I will be co-leading another ceremonial breathwork journey with my Lomi brother Benj Spound. We have been holding these group healing circles for 3 years & this will be our 15th journey!

Our Hawaiian breathwork teacher Uncle Harry has many sayings that perfectly sum up the paradoxes of life and make us laugh. One of them goes like this ā€˜I don’t know! You don’t know! Here we go!’. He is referring to the fact that we don’t know what life has in store for us, but we are equipped with what we need to thrive anyway. The Universe is a mystery, healing is a mystery, God/Source is a mystery. Uncle Harry has us repeat this chant after him, before we go into the breathwork journey. We don’t know what will happen - we don’t know what might arise during the experience of breathing deeply. And yet we trust this ancient practice handed down by the elders. We trust that *something* will happen & most often that *something* is more space, openness, & healing grace ~ flowing through our bodies, minds & spirits. We also let go of expectations & control (as much as possible) so we can enter with a beginners mind, in order to fully surrender & receive. 

Come to breathwork with all of your burdens, with that ā€˜thing’ you’ve been carrying around that is eating you up inside, the deep pain you can’t name. Come as you are into a space of non-judgement & deep love. Let it all hang out. Come & breathe into those tight spaces, opening channels of release. And maybe that ā€˜thing’ won’t completely leave in one session, but you’ll let the steam out a little, release some pressure, gain a new perspective & jumpstart a fresh chapter in your life. We will sit with you as you visit what is hurting inside your bones. We will hold you energetically & with bodywork as you journey. You are invited to dance to your edges & find your power to break free of anything holding you back. And to receive healing in whatever form you need at this time. 

I don’t know, you don’t know, here we go :)

Lomi Ha Breathwork Journey
Saturday, March 7, 2-5pm
Blissful Healing, 13 E Main St, Richmond VT
$110 - payment plans available - registration šŸ”— in bio!
Our next Lomi Ha Breathwork Journey will be March Our next Lomi Ha Breathwork Journey will be March 7, 2-5pm @blissfulhealingvt in Richmond. 

Benj & Maria are calling in another sacred ceremony of Hawaiian Breathwork. This breathing practice is simple, ancient & life-changing. We will be serving you herbal tea & guiding a heart-beat drum meditation, followed by the Lomi Ha Breathwork journey.

ā€˜Lomi’ (or Lomi Lomi) encompasses many lineages of healing from Hawaii, of which we are initiated into several. ā€˜Ha’ means ā€˜breath of life’ in Hawaiian - it is the sound we make when we exhale during the Breathwork & it is the end of the word ā€˜Aloha’.

During the journey we will offer hands on bodywork as well as energy healing. We will be holding a clear & safe space for you to release, receive & replenish your Spirit. There will be a crystal singing bowl sound bath at the end, then watercolor painting & snacks.

This type of Breathwork changes peoples lives in a myriad of ways. It allows you to go to your edges & break free, expand lung capacity, release buried trauma & emotions, let go of patterns that hold you back, access incredible amounts of energy & vitality, connect with ancestors & guides, heal anxiety, channel your Soul song & find more direction for your life’s purpose. Every journey is different & the medicine comes in its own way & time. Join us to begin a new cycle in your life & see what is possible with your very own breath.

We have been co-leading these ceremonial journeys for 3 years, this is our 15th round! We would love to circle with you. Please help us spread the word & let us know if you have any questions.

Date: Saturday, March 7 from 2-5pm
Location: Blissful Healing Studio, 13 E Main St, Richmond VT

Early morning meditation on this quiet snowy day … Early morning meditation on this quiet snowy day … praying for our world as I stitch šŸŒ€šŸŖ” Praying for justice & peace to prevail. For those terrorizing our precious neighbors to be stopped. We are one family & our liberation is tied together. May the systems that created this madness crumble & fall. Remember: the power of the people is greater than the people in power. Choose love, take action, breathe deeply & know we will get through this together.
We are in intense times, there’s no getting around We are in intense times, there’s no getting around that. My activism is rooted in love & healing. I continue calling in group breathwork circles (& practicing my own breathwork) because in order to SHOW UP for our families & communities it *really helps* to be grounded & clear. The Hawaiian elders know what’s up. This style of breathing is a tried & true ancient method of tapping into Source energy - God, Creator, Divinity, Goddess - however you name it. So much in our culture is sick & wounded. Come be in sacred ceremony to breathe our way into joy, harmony, peace - so we can help re-weave the fabric of our precious world & support collective healing & liberation.
