Medicine basket and Juju journal

I graduated from Color of Woman in 2015, and am a certified Intentional Creativity® teacher coach and Mentor. I cofacilitate virtual Red Thread Circles bimonthly, and offer individual sessions, Red Thread Reiki classes, and quarterly painting Playshops. 

I enjoyed taking part in the first PRISMA Practitioner training, learning more about interweaving creative practices with our own healing arts practices. 

My goal is to help you connect with your creative Muse, and spark access to your OWN images and stories. By doing so, we each gain better access to our own information and become our own oracles.

Insights and bursts of  creativity, re-aligning with your values and life path often follow. I find painting and creating with intention to be empowering, healing and uplifting. 

Won't you join me?

Take it to the Journal

  In our Intentional Creativity practices and classes, we often suggest,  'take it to the journal' especially when feeling stuck or seeking insights.  For decades, I've kept journals with lots of words, and sketchbooks ... in our Intentional Creativity process we combine the two, and use art and color to assist processing and integration.  Healed Enough journal Simple composition books make a great base for these creative journals, and is fun to decorate the covers, as we did in school! Another option is a sketchbook with blank pages - choose something you'll enjoy using!   Simple art materials suffice and add interest - washi tape, markers, inexpensive paint, old magazines for collage, tools for making patterns, oil pastels, mod podge and glitter are fun ways to add color and movement.  This is a great place to record your intention, ideas and insights that arise during a class or project.  At times I participate in a friend's  EFT tapp...

Plant Medicine

As a little girl, I loved the idea of using pants for their healing medicine and wisdom! Is gather soft leaves, smash them on a cinder block, and then - not sure what to do next - would roll into little pastilles, and set them in the sun to dry... Mallow in the path As an adult, I learned lots from my botanist  hubby and his mom, joined the local herb society, and took medicine making classes as I could. I cook with herbs, brew herbal tisanes and infusions, and infuse herbs in oil to use in my massage practice. About 20 years ago, I lubricated the track on my sliding glass door - and  smashed my finger closing it!! (LMTs hate any hurts to our hands!!)  The ND I work with said 'keep taking hypericum (homeopathic) as long as you notice it hurts, and apply hypericum oil or tincture!!' I did as he recommended  - the fingernail did fall off! But regrew, with a faint line) I also used comfrey poultices and clay externally. Hypericum or St John's wort helps speed the heal...

Coconut Milk Yogurt

 This morning I started a new batch of coconut milk yogurt, using L-ruteri and L-rhamnosus for the culture.  Coconut milk Yogurt The L-ruteri strain was common in our guts 75 years ago, but is rare now.  It was originally cultured by a German physician (Reuter) from a Peruvian woman's breast milk, and is important for the health of the small intestine. Use of this strain increases the production of oxytocin and collagen, and has several additional health benefits. Many with SIBO find it helpful. In the 70s and 80s, I used full fat raw milk from a local dairy to culture my own yogurt, which our family enjoyed.  When making yogurt using plant based milk, it's helpful to add prebiotics and sugar, as coconut milk tastes sweet, but the probiotics need more sugar to culture properly. The medium chain fats found in coconut milk are similar to that in human milk, making it an ideal medium for the culture!  13.5 oz tin full fat coconut milk 1 Tbsp green banana powder or ...
