what began as a simple call

This is the story of how Embodying the Seasons came to be. Back in late September 2025, during a weekly chat with a dear friend, they shared how difficult the autumn transition always is for them. More tired than usual, lacking motivation, wanting to do nothing but curl up on the sofa. Then they did something beautiful. They pulled their sweater up over their head and made this gesture of wanting to burrow. I asked them to do it again, to really sense into that movement. And as they did, something shifted. Instead of seeing this as something wrong with them, together we began to wonder: what if this is your body being incredibly wise? What if you're perfectly synced with the season? That moment changed something for me. I realized our bodies already know the rhythms of the natural world. They've always known. We've just stopped listening. And I began to wonder: what would it feel like to do that for every season? To let our bodies lead us into autumn, into winter, into spring? That's how this series was born. The spring equinox was almost a month ago. And yet, sometimes the season arrives in the world before it arrives in us. The thawing takes time. The opening has its own pace. And there's a particular kind of courage required to let yourself move with it. On Friday, April 17th, I'm offering a free 90-minute virtual somatic experience called Embodying Spring. What started as a simple idea has grown into something I hadn't expected. What we'll explore together Through gentle movement, creative expression, and guided reflection, we'll discover what your body already knows about spring's rhythms. The awakening. The unfurling. The gentle courage to move toward what you care about. If you have joined us before then you know that you are in for a really spacious and lovely experience. Or if this is your first time joining one of our seasonal sessions, I think you'll love it. It is a gentle practice, and you don't need experience with somatic work, movement, or art. Your body already knows how to do this. We're simply creating space for that knowing to emerge. Join us in this exploration: What does spring feel like in your body? In our 90 minutes together, you'll:

I have been watching spring arrive in the most unhurried, generous way. Everything outside is green and lush. The trees are full. The birds are back and singing their songs at all hours. And our resident groundhog has emerged from his winter burrow and has been slowly, contentedly eating his way through the dandelions. I find myself stopping to watch him more than I probably should. There is something about witnessing nature settle into itself that feels like an invitation to do the same....
Not all somatic practices are created equal. And before I elaborate on that, let's take a pause and begin with a question: What is somatics? You may have an idea, an inkling, a knowing, but it's hard to put into words. Or you simply don't know, but you are curious, and that is enough. I have been immersed in the world of somatics for years now, and to be completely honest with you, the answer to that question is one that continuously changes and transforms. What I know for sure is that...
