I am so excited to get this site off the ground as a forum for bodywork, yoga, movement therapies, and open discussion about the philosophies of our lives. Along the way, I invite your comments on my articles and posts in the hopes of cultivating discussion and positive momentum within the mainstream, for arts and practices that generally seem to hover around the edges of society.
I began my studies and work in the healing arts 17 years ago. I found that the lessons about anatomy, injury and healing were a kind of reminder of things that I already intuitively knew. I was lucky to recognize this talent early and follow through with it. I have been able to turn those early lessons into a career in Massage Therapy that has crossed the state of Washington and lasted nearly 10 years. I am blessed to have had the opportunities that I have here in Seattle, having begun my own business, Unity Therapeutic Bodywork and Movement, and co-founded the Seattle Bodywork Cooperative in the U-District.
Early in my journey, I stepped onto a yoga mat. While at the time, it seemed more like a young woman’s gentle attempt to rebel in a conservative town, something struck me deeper. I took a hiatus, but came back swingin’ in 2003! Those first classes in Seattle reminded me about my connections to the world-at-large and helped me focus my vision for a life of service to health, healing and empowerment.
Yoga and bodywork have had profound affects in my life, helping me through physical and emotional pain, substantial weight loss, and preparing me to face professional challenges with Grace. I have been given so many gifts through these practices, that I can’t help but share them with the world around me. This site is one of many steps on that path. I hope you find it interesting, helpful, inspirational and thought-provoking.
With Grace in my heart, I thank you for your visit here and hope you return often.
Namaste.
