Cranio Sacral Therapy, Massage Therapy, and Guided Present Awareness
Listening and following the body’s wisdom.
Releasing holding patterns. Restoring vitality.
“Our body and mind have the capacity to heal themselves if we allow them to rest. Stopping, calming, and resting are preconditions for healing.”
—Thich Nhat Hanh
What is R.E.A.L.?
The more we pause to listen to our inner wisdom, the more clearly we see ourselves, understand what we need, and align ourselves to receive.
My interest in physical fitness and movement began as a blue-ribbon winner of physical fitness challenges in elementary school and a cheerleader from fourth grade through my senior year in high school. In my teens, I fell in love with dancing and running. Both empowered me to feel my own strength, blast through my own and other people’s assumptions about what I was capable of accomplishing, and simply and elegantly enjoy being in my own body.
