Our ceremony opens with a freshly brewed, nourishi Our ceremony opens with a freshly brewed, nourishing tea blend that is intuitively chosen for the group. We settle in with animal spirit cards pulled around the central altar. Sitting in a circle we ground ourselves & connect with our breath, then share what we’re calling into our lives, our deepest wish. The Lomi Ha breath practice is explained & everyone lays down comfortably to begin the journey. The circle is woven in safety & trust. I drum & lead a meditation to drop us in deeper, calling in our guides & angels. There is a special playlist that starts & everyone breathes in the Lomi way for about an hour. Benj & I tend the energy in the room, tracking & intuiting what is needed. We support each participant through hands on Lomi-style bodywork, making pathways so stuck energy & emotions can find their release.

Benj Spound & I have been guiding these ceremonies for 3.5 years & there really aren’t words to describe the profound depths of love & healing grace that flow in & around the group. It’s magic. It’s ancient Hawaiian medicine. And after the breath practice is finished, we play the singing bowls & soft music... there is no rushing. It is gentle, resonant, emotional. We are transformed, we are reborn. Watercolor painting helps with integration & food supports our bodies to become more grounded after the big journey. More tea. So much love. Harmony. Connection to the Divine within. A new cycle in your life begins. There is more space inside you - more of YOU, less of all the other stuff.

This is a taste to give you a better sense of the flow - it’s like a mini retreat! A gift to your inner child & future self. 
We welcome you to join us & would be honored to hold space for your healing & transformation.

10 years ago! My training with Laughing River Yoga 10 years ago! My training with Laughing River Yoga was life changing. I went on to open my healing practice after this, offering Reiki & crystal healing to clients. The following year I took my first Hawaiian LomiLomi intensive & the next year I stepped into CranioSacral Therapy & an herbalism apprenticeship. The yoga teacher training was a big part of helping me learn how to hold space for people & facilitate transformative healing journeys. Because I also learned how to really hold space for myself & be with my own body & breath. Which was huge for me at that time because my daughter was 18 months when I began the training & I still nursed her, so she had some hard moments over those 9 long weekends. It is so sweet we graduated on Mother’s Day - I was still finding myself as a new mother & anchoring into my power of a woman transformed by birth. I have always had the support of my partner to take many healing trainings over the past decade, I am so grateful. And now I am living my dream of helping others to heal, with the web of support (seen & unseen / human & more than human) continuously lifting me up. Thank you to those family, friends & teachers who have helped me on my path - you know who you are !!!

There will be tea, drum meditation & a powerful journey using the ‘Lomi Ha’ breath practice. Each person will set an intention and breathe it into reality. This helps with clearing out old patterns & aligning with soul purpose.

Bodywork will be offered during the breath journey, followed by sound healing, watercolor painting & nourishing food. 

This is Hawaiian style Breathwork, transformative & full of love.

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 ‘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 ‘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 ‘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 :)
