Tomorrow morning is going to be something special. 🤍

If you have been feeling disconnected, dimmed out, or just a little lost in the noise of everyday life — this one is for you. 🌿

This Sunday, May 24th from 10AM - 12PM I am opening the doors of the Stable Core Wellness Studio in Ontario, OR for a guided, in-person Somatic Breathwork Journey — and the intention I am holding for this session is one that is deeply close to my heart:

✨ Remembering who you are. Finding your inner light. ✨
As an advanced Somatic Breathwork practitioner, I will guide you through a powerful, intentional breathwork experience designed to move through the layers — the stress, the stories, the tension — and bring you back home to yourself. Because that light? It never left. Sometimes it just needs a little breath to fan the flame back to life. 🔥🌬️

To my people in Eastern Oregon and Western Idaho — this one is right in your backyard and I would absolutely love to see you there. 💛

📍 Stable Core Wellness Studio — Ontario, OR

🕙 10AM — 12PM

🌬️ Big things are happening at Stable Core Wellness this May — and we don't want you to miss any of it.

First, mark your calendar: our next Breathwork Journey is this Sunday, May 24th at the SCW studio in Ontario, Oregon. It's a guided experience to help you drop in, let go, and come back to yourself. No experience necessary — just show up and breathe.

And if you've been looking for a reason to start a weekly practice, now you have two:

🧘 Mat Pilates + Breathwork — Monday mornings (new!)
🌿 Gentle Yoga + Breathwork — Friday mornings (new!)

Whether you're brand new to movement or just need something that actually fits your week, these classes were made for you.

Ready to strip away some old useless armor?

Join me on Sunday morning for an in-person Breathwork Journey in my studio in to shed old painful and tired ways of being and create space for new habits, reactions, and perspectives. See Stable Core Wellness for event details 🙏

None of us is born with armor around the heart. We become armored through experience.

A broken heart, betrayal, disappointment, rejection, moments where trust was lost or where being vulnerable no longer felt safe. Slowly, often without realizing it, we begin to protect ourselves.

We become careful with what we say, what we feel, and how much of ourselves we allow others to truly see.

And while this armor, this ice, this wall around the heart may protect us from pain, it can also keep us from intimacy, connection, and the very thing we long for most: to feel seen, accepted, and safe with another human being.

Breathwork, reflection, and honest self-enquiry can help us soften these protective layers and reconnect more deeply with ourselves and with others.

There is so much loneliness in this world, and when we begin to remove the armor between us, we also begin to rediscover meaningful human connection.

This is where the magic happens. 🤍

My little corner of the world here in Ontario, Eastern Oregon — ring light glowing, laptop open, headphones ready, and that gorgeous tapestry holding the energy of the space. This is my virtual facilitation setup inside the Stable Core Wellness movement studio, and even though I may be broadcasting to you from the high desert of Eastern Oregon — the moment we begin breathing together, I will be right there beside you. 🌿

Here's what makes Somatic Breathwork so extraordinary — it works with your nervous system in two powerful phases:

🔥 First, we up-regulate — we kick up the dust. We activate. We stir what has been sitting still and stored inside your body for far too long.

🌊 Then, we down-regulate — we clear the dust out. We settle. We create space for your nervous system to repattern its emotional and physical responses to stress at a cellular level.

This is not just a breathing exercise. This is a reset. A release. A remembering of who you are underneath all of it. 💫

And tonight — you can experience it from your couch, your bed, your favorite cozy corner of home. 🛋️

Our next Breathwork Journey is only hours away and there is still time to join us. 🙌

📅 Tonight
🕖 7 — 8:30PM PST
💻 Virtual via Zoom
👉 All the details are in the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/share/16xTtZtQTd/
I cannot wait to breathe with you tonight. See you there. 🌬️🤍

One of my greatest joys in this work is simply holding space. Guiding a room of people into their breath, watching shoulders drop, watching faces soften, watching the nervous system finally exhale — there is nothing else like it. This is my calling and I show up for it with my whole heart every single time. 🙏

I had the absolute joy of leading a Somatic Breathwork Journey at the beautiful Verve Pilates + Fitness Studio in Phoenix, Oregon — and the energy in that room was something truly special. There is nothing quite like doing this work together, in person, breathing in the same space. ✨

📣 And guess what — you can experience it for yourself TOMORROW!
I am heading back to Verve Pilates + Fitness Studio and I would love for you to join me. 🌿

📍 Verve Pilates + Fitness Studio — Phoenix, Oregon
📅 Tomorrow Evening
🕡 6:30 — 8:30PM (doors open at 6p)
🧘‍♀️ All levels welcome — zero experience necessary

Whether you've been breathwork-curious for a while or you're walking in completely fresh — this space is for you. Your breath will meet you exactly where you are. 💛

⚡ Spaces are LIMITED and they will fill up fast — so don't wait on this one.
👉 DM me TODAY to reserve your spot. I'll take care of the rest. 🙌

I cannot wait to see your face in that room tomorrow evening. Let's breathe together. 🌬️🤍
