I am a kinesiologist who works with moving emotions and reading energetic patterns in the body.
As human beings, we have learnt to hold onto our emotions, and in doing so, we have created density in our bodies. I wholeheartedly trust the body’s intelligence to tell us what we need to know to let go of the density, as our mind likes to play tricks on us, but our bodies cannot lie.
Everything is connected, and our bodies are as if the earth: we are cyclical beings who move through seasons of expansion and contraction. And when we learn to understand ourselves, we can begin working with our natural rhythms rather than against them. And, I have witnessed that monumental healing happens when safety is co-created, and there is unwavering trust in a person’s ability to have their own process and find their own way.
I am also a trained Lomilomi practitioner, a Hawaiian healing massage that returns us to our bodies and the spirit of Aloha (unconditional love). Touch is one of our most primal needs. It releases oxytocin, our body’s healing hormone, and reminds the most primal parts of us that we are safe, held, and not alone. I have been trained in the Papa K Lomilomi lineage by Charlie Snow, who was given permission to teach it by respected Kūpuna (Elders) and Kūmu (teachers). I practice this Polynesian healing massage with deep gratitude and reverence.
