Radical Healing & Wellbeing
Why Radical Healing & Well-Being?
​
Radical (adjective): advocating or based on thorough or complete political or social change; representing or supporting an extreme or progressive section of a political party. (Oxford Languages)
​
I believe healing and well-being belongs to everyone.
​
I provide healing and wellness through an anti-racism, trauma-informed lens.
Services
Reiki
I am a certified Usui Reiki practitioner, level II. I offer private Reiki sessions and can be available to offer Reiki in yoga workshops.
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
Yoga
I am a trauma informed, body affirming yoga teacher. I completed my 200 hr with Sacred Seeds Yoga School, I am certified in prenatal yoga from Shiva Shakti School of Yoga and Healing Arts. My trauma informed training was completed with Mindy Muse Yoga.
I currently teach for Sea Change Yoga and provide private and small group sessions.
