Tantric Meditation is structured practice, that uses a variety of breath and visualization techniques to enliven Prana within the subtle body. Over time our dedicated practice develops Shakti— the creative force of vital energy with creates charisma, magnetism, fortitude, and inner peace.

This weekly meditation practice begins with pranayama and closes with observing the mindspace (Chittakash). Each week may include a combination of breath awareness, Kriyas, visualization, mantra, and other yogic techniques. Each month incorporates a theme so that participants can develop relationship to the practices:

May: Mudras (hand gestures)

June: Bija Mantras (seed sounds)

July - August: the Chakras (7 weeks)

All are welcome! Replay is available for all who register; if you are unable to attend live, you are welcome to participate by recording.

Next class is 5/31, our theme for May is Nurturing the Spark of Creativity

Yoga Nidra is a meditative technique, practiced lying down in Savasana, allowing awareness to move through the layers of the being. This practice often leads to deep rest and relaxation, and can provide a much needed respite from our culture of “doing.”‍ ‍

Yoga Nidra can be approached as a standlalone meditation practice or Sadhana, as well as a preparation for advanced meditation techniques, and allows the benefits of an asana practice to be fully integrated. By learning how to move through a systematic relaxation process, we develop deeper awareness of the subtle body and the mind.

This virtual group meets twice per month and offers a unique, eight-stage Yoga Nidra, with an emphasis on community building, and includes time for sharing and questions.

Participants will be invited to consider any intentions they wish to be amplified by the practice.

This class meets over zoom, the practice will recorded and downloadable to all registrants .

This offering is an expression of the intersections between my background as an Art Therapist and as a Tantric Meditation practitioner, inviting participants to both understand the ancient origins of these practices, and consider creative applications to explore spirituality and healing through creative practice.

This series will explore yogic perspectives on visual creation as a form of invoking divine consciousness. We will study the use ofYantras (sacred diagrams that hold the energy of specific Devis), Sacred Geometry (patterns and mandalas expressing elemental forces), and symbolic forms drawn from animals, ritual tools, and nature as they relate to the Chakras and Devis.

Each week will combine lectures, guided meditation, and creative practice. Participants will be invited to respond personally, developing visual expressions inspired by that week’s focus. The series offers an opportunity to approach art-making as spiritual practice—to awaken consciousness through creativity. As a final project, students will create symbols, sigils, geometric forms, or artworks intentionally imbued with energy.

Reiki has created a foundation for my spiritual practice, and informed nearly every aspect of my life. I did not anticipate this at the time, but my trainings came to influence my approach to psychotherapy, deepened my meditation, and supported a level of personal healing. that I did not think was possible. For those who feel called to this modality, it opens a door to new ways of being in the world and understanding the subtle (and not so subtle) energy around you.

This initial step of training provides a foundation for understanding what Reiki is, the ethics and mechanics of practice, a brief decolonial history, and everything you need to know to start practicing with family and friends (and pets! and plants!)

It’s been a while since I offered this Training and Certification in-person, and I am delighted to be hosted by The Bridge. This training is open to all, regardless of professional background or previous experience. You can also bundle this with Level 2 on 8/16.

Reiki Level 2 is probably the most profound level, because at this degree we begin to understand the full potential of what Reiki can offer to support healing, by expanding beyond the physical into the venues of Reiki over distance and across time.

For Coaches, Hypnotists, Psychotherapists, and Somatic and Holistic Practitioners, this opens the door to using Reiki to deepen inner child work, future progressions, trauma healing, parts work, embodiment, and relational nervous system support.

For those who work with Reiki as a standalone modality, it aids in understanding the deep psychological impact that this energy can have, and allowing you to better collaborate with the process.

And for everyone, it is the “professional” stage of Reiki training that allows you to ethically work with others in a formal context. While you may wish to pursue Reiki level 3 or Master level training to further enhance your understanding, your professional training is complete with Level 2.

This experiential course will explore how intentionally navigating states of consciousness can deepen creativity. Eastern and Western perspectives on the liminal, qualities of brainwave states, and the bidirectional nature of creative expression and subconscious will be introduced through brief lectures. Techniques that safely induce liminal states that support the creative process will be shared and explored.

Each week, I will draw upon my experience as an Art Psychotherapist, Ericksonian Hypnotist, Yoga Nidra and Tantric Meditation teacher, and Dreamwork facilitator to guide participants through layers of consciousness to prepare for creative expression. An open art practice, supported by Reiki, will allow space to create and integrate, followed by time for sharing. All levels of experience are welcome, and participants may work in any preferred medium.

Part Lecture, Part Meditation class, and Part open studio— opening the pathways for inspiration to flow.
