embodied medicine
medicine deep and ancient as we…
Engaging embodied medicine draws us into attunement with ourselves and our medicine, offering opportunities to explore modalities and resources that engage somatic awareness and embodied consciousness in healing.
With this embodied consciousness, we have the opportunity to digest and assimilate the experiences of our lives with greater ease, rest our nervous system, and expand our capacity for healing. We practice consent-based mindfulness, knowing that connecting deeply with the body can surface strong emotions, all offerings are based on choice.
Working with plant and stone medicine and especially aromatic medicine connects us simultaneously with our present bodies and with the world of spirits and ancestors. We experience our bodies response to scent on multiple levels, practice working with essential oils as medicine in emotionally and physically safer ways, and learn skills to create our own wild-gathered incense for embodied ceremony.
Embodiment is medicine as ancient as the human experience, bringing life to the ways our own vibrant beings are essential to our healing and to our participation in our collective and planetary healing.
