Transforming Ourselves to Transform the World

I believe everyone is here on Earth to give a gift. We are in a paradigm shift, and everything is accelerated. 

You are meant for greatness. You are a gift here and now and the sooner you know it and step fully into your full self, your gift, your knowing, the more that benefits the rest of us. 

This isn’t to imply a perfection without mistakes, as mistakes and failure are integral to learning. 

Connect to your power
Connect to your knowing
Know your life’s purpose

Decolonize yourself from this paradigm (yt supremac*st capitalist patriarchy sizeist ableist homophobic transphobic ageist misogynoir) that’s not serving anyone. 

We are interconnected.
You are meant to be happy.
You are meant to feel fulfilled.
Your flourishing benefits all of us.

I have felt unsure. I have felt lost. I have not known the “right” steps or the right direction, and yet my life path has led me to now. To believe that I have something of value to share with you. 

The thread has run through my life, herbalism at age 20, acupressure and bodywork at age 30, acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at age 38. Key moments that shifted in my life, a knowing that was present. Knowing I was in the right place in my first Tui Na class, as I felt the electricity in my body touching another body with intention for healing. Feeling the ping pong lights in my brain stepping into my first class at acupuncture school - Anatomy 101 (body nerd!) where I made friends for life, and stepped into the role I'm in now.

I have a unique position of being a health care practitioner, of knowing that injury and illness are ways the body is communicating, asking for your attention. Not only on a physical level but a mental and spiritual one as well. Every healing modality connected to ancestral wisdom is also connected to Spirit. Mind/Body/Spirit is not just something we say is connected in holistic medicine. We are looking at you as a whole being. I hold you in your wholeness, so that you can find your way back there. 

Healing also must incorporate self love, radical, unconditional self love, the far island, as Sonya Renee Taylor refers to it. This is my offering, of my journey, of my learning. May it be of benefit to you.
