Fluid Resilience excerpt

Co-Weaving

Brilliant cross-discipline artist Claudia Hill has invited and curated an exception group of people for a durational project to co-weave on a 120+ year-old loom, and delighted to be part of this grouping. As a process-based work we are invited to “weave and therefore unveil a future collectively”. It is an honour and a pleasure to work collectively in unique ways with such a profound yet simple intention. Hoping a version of public visitation may happen in Berlin in December. Will post, as it reveals itself.

CRANIOSACRAL Practice   

Craniosacral/Expanded Consciousness sessions have many benefits for wellness including: deeply easing stress, deep rest for the nervous system, increased vitality, unwinding of unwanted habits, and increased general well-being. Craniosacral also has many benefits for Health (active definition of health: as "not a state but a search for equilibrium") including; improved eyesight/vision, reduced acute pain, rehabilitation in the neural field, learning disabilities, gross and fine motor problems, developmental delays, autism, headaches, tinnitus, TMJ syndrome, stress disorders, trauma and neurological conditions.

My work with Craniosacral work is a hybrid practice which includes  working with expanded consciousness and with Nature. I work co-creatively with each client given one's individuality and needs. Please note that some themes and issues could find resolution in one session, some in three to four sessions and others over time.

Berlin Practice days Monday, Thursday and Friday afternoons.
