Virtual & In-Person Embodiment Sessions
Connect with the unspoken voice of your body through movement, touch and the exploration of embodiment!
Is this you? You’ve been wanting to know your erotic self but you’ve been trapped in ideals and social beliefs, striving to fit an image of what others say happiness is. Looking and acting a certain way. Always being nice. Not wanting to offend others. Keeping the status quo. Your life and relationships fitting in a nice little box. Your beliefs confining you to a life not of your own dreams and desires.
Most of the women I work with have a habit of staying under the radar and not being seen or heard. They feel nervous when speaking because they’ve forgotten what their voice sounds like and how to speak to their desires. They have a history of playing by the rules, don’t know their limits, and don’t ask for what they want. They’re seeking a deeper connection with their bodies and partners who see and honor them.
Although this is normal – you feel so alone. You believe you’re the only one who ever feels this way.
It’s time to discover that you have your own voice. Your own desires. Your own identity. Your own worth. Through our work together you’ll find liberation from patterns and limitations put in place long ago. Hidden life principles that have been guiding your life and keeping you stuck.
Embodied work is about learning you have a voice, finding your voice, hearing your voice...and not quivering when you speak your deepest desires and needs.
What is Embodiment?
Embodiment is feeling into your body through breath, touch, sound, awareness, and movement. We use these channels to explore and learn new ways to experience your connection to your body, your connection to others, and your connection to the world around you. Some of the tools I use with clients include Sexological Bodywork, exercises to Explore Boundaries & Consent, Learning to Understand & Regulate Your Nervous System, and Yoga & Movement.
“Embodiment feels like relaxation. Ease and flow in mind and body where I sense my whole being is connected. Mind, body, and spirit…everything is synced together.”
This aspect of learning more about ourselves is to do just that, discover your boundaries, limits, and to know what consent feels like in your body.
Boundaries & Consent
Boundaries are not meant to confine you, they are there intuitively for your own well being of safety.
- Do you say yes when you really do not want? Do you say yes out of obligation or because of social expectations?
- Have you ever thought of boundaries as a deterrent to others, concerned they would see by your body language or hear your boundaries and think that you’re pushing them away?
- Do you habitually try to make others feel comfortable around you or in an environment, because you don’t want them to feel uncomfortable in their own skin?
- Have you noticed yourself pushing past your comfort level to please someone, so that they feel ok?
- Do you know what a YES FEELS like in your body? Do you know what NO FEELS like in your body?
Do you have boundaries? What are they? How do you know your own limits? Where do you end and another begins?
Boundaries can be described as a barrier to keep something or someone out. But boundaries in our personal relationships are about how to protect & honor the parts of us that want to remain within, allowing us to feel safe and contained in our bodies, free to explore ourselves without pushing past our limits to accommodate others.
We get to choose who we feel safe with, who we are going to invite into our lives and who we bring close to us intimately. You may have a belief that you have to do something because you’ve always done it and you’ll let others down if you don’t continue to do the thing you’ve always done. Your actions may be based on what society deems as acceptable and good, but you feel inside that it’s not what you want.
You have a choice. You have the power to listen to your needs and fulfill them, even if you disappoint others. It’s up to you to take control over your needs and desires. Boundaries can feel like a safe space inside of you. A safe space around you. They are what keep you from pushing past your limits and diving into pleasing others so you feel accepted by them.
sexological Bodywork
Sexological Bodywork is somatic education that assists individuals, couples, and groups to deepen their experience and awareness of their body, eroticism, and sexuality.
“Soma” or “Somatic” is ‘of the body.’ It is turning the focus inwards, to the sensations we experience in our bodies, including our tissues, structures, trapped emotions or stories that we hold in our nervous systems which contribute to our habits and how we experience life.
People work with Sexological Bodyworkers to address specific challenges they are aware of for which they are seeking understanding, acceptance and relief; as well as those who are more broadly looking to explore and expand their own erotic potential.
Sexological Bodyworkers are somatic sex educators who use a client-centred approach to empower, educate, and bring attention to the felt experience through movement, breath, touch, sound, and placement of awareness. This approach facilitates the ability to change limiting habits, unwind and release what is no longer supportive, re-sensitize the body, and create a more expansive erotic state that integrates both body and mind.
Our teaching involves a variety of instructive modalities, including breathwork, foundations of touch, somatic learning, body and genital mapping, consent and boundaries, active receiving, erotic massage, pelvic release bodywork, scar tissue remediation, and masturbation coaching.
One of the somatic realms that Sexological Bodyworkers introduce to clients is a state of arousal that is free of fantasy, unfinished emotional business, religious dogma, cultural caveats and habitual sexual behaviors. In this meditative state, an individual becomes aware of the body as a source of wisdom and freedom. One of the ways to access this fecund state is by actively receiving attentive and mindful erotic touch. Helping others access and make use of a variety of erotic states is foundational to the education we offer.
All those practicing Sexological Bodywork/Somatic Sex Education are required to adhere to our Code of Ethics, which ensures that sessions are client-directed, that erotic touch is one-way (practitioner to client), that gloves are used for genital touch, and that practitioners maintain professional boundaries with clients.
Sexological Bodyworkers believe that sexual health, erotic education, and pleasure are basic human rights.
Yoga
Yoga has its roots in bringing you into this moment, into your body and out of your analytical mind. Honing into your body and your breath – two very important components of embodiment.
Our bodies hold the energy of all our life experiences. When you begin to move your body with intent, the poses begin to open up and release what your ready to let go of. Through patience and practice your you’ll begin to tap into your well of complete wholeness, as you have always been a whole and perfect being you’ll reconnect with this self knowing.
I combine my training from Sexological Bodywork and nervous system education when I lead my yoga classes. The mixed components create a bounty of rooting yourself in a space, feeling calm, shaking off the cobwebs from your gut intuition and gravitating your awareness towards pleasure within yourself.
I’ve done yoga off and on for 20 years and have been teaching Inspired Forest Yoga for the last 3 years.
