EMBODY THE
WAY OF NATURE
RETURN HOME TO YOUR BODY
RETURN HOME TO EARTH
ECO-SOMATIC RESILIENCE & COMMUNITY PRACTICE
Our work is rooted in the understanding that our connection with earth is inherent, and the experience of belonging is not intellectual, but of the body. Through eco-somatic practice and bioregional placemaking, we seek to awaken our innate ecological intelligence and nurture a profound sense of belonging within the natural world through honoring and attuning to relationships, patterns, processes, and cycles of change. We specialize in transformative, body-centered and nature-based practices that support you to restore your primal connection to the living earth, awaken embodied wisdom, and reconnect to your true self.
Join us on a shared journey of (re)membering your ecological self by reclaiming intimacy with your natural wholeness. Together, let's foster a thriving earth culture for generations to come.
SACRED GROVE
The Sacred Grove is a powerful online community of individuals seeking to align with nature and the cosmos. Together we honor the cycles of sun, moon and stars, and explore seasonal and astrological teachings that help you reconnect to the language of your inner and outer world.
1:1 SESSIONS
Through a range of healing modalities, we support you to remember your sense of purpose and connection to the web of life. We believe that the awakening of the individual is essential to the healing of the whole. Find home within and awaken your sense of belonging to the living earth.
RETREATS
Connect to the living wisdom of earth / body on one of our eco-somatic retreats. These are unique opportunities to reclaim embodied knowing and strengthen your kinship with the living world through exploring place-based practices, eco-intimacy, and rituals of reciprocity with Nature.
"To heal ourselves, we must remember that we are a small part of a much greater whole."

Eco-Somatics is a field of embodied research and practice that nurtures Embodied Belonging. It combines the knowledge systems of Somatics and Deep Ecology to develop our felt sense of self to include the relational field of our living ecology and cosmos.
Somatics recognizes the body as a source of wisdom and innate intelligence from which we can orient our lives, while Deep Ecology recognizes the interconnectedness of all phenomena, and that there is intrinsic value and consciousness that exists in the wider ecology.
Therefore, eco-somatics helps us to understand in an experiential way that our interconnectedness to the living world happens through our bodies, because our bodies are an extention of earth. Belonging is embodied to the extent that one is attuned and responsive to the wisdom of the earth / body continuum.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Thu, Sep 28Sep 28, 7:00 PM – 8:30 PMThe bright light of the full moon reflects a time of illumination, culmination and fulfillment of that which was set in motion six months ago on the Aries New Moon. The opposition between sun and moon invites balancing polar aspects of identity.
We are being called to mend our estrangement from the web of life,
to remember our belongingness to the living world,
and to allow space in our lives to be re-enchanted by the song of Earth.
WELCOME!
We are Jess & Michelle. We are honored that you're here.
We believe that earth is calling to humanity through the collective discomfort and cultural crises of these times and is asking each of us to rise and reclaim our purpose in service to planetary resilience. For us that means embodying ecological intelligence and awakening to the dream of earth.
We are heading the call to embody the dream of earth by weaving ourselves back into kinship with the living world. We are remembering our way home by apprenticing ourselves to the way of nature. To embody the way of nature is to live in harmony with the natural rhythms of life, perceive with all your senses, develop a reciprocal relationship to place, and listen to the way earth moves you.
When you learn to embody the way of nature, every cell of your being opens to the gift of life, awareness of interdependence (and trust in that) grows, and this compels you to live ever more boldly in service to that which generates and nurtures life. You experience the soul pleasure of being awake, present to the wholeness of your life unfolding in a web of kinship.
