Moonthly Offerings
I’m thrilled to create this space for exploration and connection. What I have always appreciated about my naturopathic medical experience is how I got to explore the whole body and learn modalities that integrate our energetic health into the undercurrent of physical symptoms. As a part of my gratitude for all the mentors along my way, I want to create a space where I can give back what I have incorporated.
This is different from a blog post on "top ten myths/facts #SEO"; this isn’t a medical textbook lecture. It is a collage of different papers glued together. I am taking my love for health, environment, sociology, and archetypical mythology to understand how the body fits into the larger tapestry of the human experience.
Join me on these workshops & webinars covering various topics.
My hope is that by creatively exploring the narratives behind health conditions, they’ll feel less intimidating, daunting, and isolating. Perhaps we can build a bridge between the body and the spirit in the process.

The Other Realm
So much of our conversation about health focuses on the flurry of activity we engage in during our conscious, waking moments. However, it has long been known that the mysterious and elusive time of night—our sleep and dreams—holds clues to our health and healing. Drawing from the work of Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, a Jungian psychoanalyst, and the wisdom of naturopathic medicine, we will explore the roots of healing spaces, including those within our own bodies. The workshop will include discussion and reflection on the symbolism and insights we can gain from our dreams, as well as the formulation of a unique tea for each participant.
Details: July 21st @ 1-2:30 PM
Location: Local Health Movement Studio

I will delve into the perspectives of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Herbalism on the essence of this season. In this interactive session, you will create a special tea blend tailored to support your body's transition and have time to journal and reflect on what you need to shed in order to take the next steps in your health and life.

PCOS & The Heroine's Journey
PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) is a condition that is increasingly affecting women worldwide. As I observed the experiences of my friends and the broader community, I found myself asking: why are so many women affected by this, and what path do they need to embark on for healing?
This webinar will explore the main theories contributing to the condition, and the approach naturopathic medicine would take towards it. However, my hope with this webinar is to go beyond just the boundaries of missed periods and infertility grappling women, but also bring into view that depression is highly prevalent in this population. Using the wisdom from Sharon Blackie’s “If Women Rose Rooted”, I hope this webinar uncovers a way one can possibly find the rhythm of their body again.
