My Story
My name is Samantha and this is the work I do as my journey keeps unfolding and evolving
From having 3 babies in 3 years, to being totally disconnected from and hating my body, a burn-out, moving first across the world then across Europe, a totally rude spiritual awakening and many large and small Ego deaths later - I am now here, still having daily little ego deaths, shedding, growing, evolving but mostly thriving, loving, living and laughing 𓆃
In the remembering of myself my "career" evolved from Early Childhood Education to becoming a Bodyworker and then a ceremonial space holder all while Mothering. My interests and intuition have led me here and I am honoured to do what I do which is combining the skills, the wisdom and the experience that my journey have brought me 𓆃
Somewhere along my way I was told to write my own story, not based on the stories I have read before, not inspired by another story... but really my story and this is part of it. You are part of it. My vision is a community of thriving joyful Souls who gather to co-regulate, co-create, support, nourish and hold each other. And so it is.
My Approach
Somatic Embodiment is how awake and aware you are IN your body - your INTEROCEPTION - being able to perceive what is felt inside of you. Feeling deeply connected in the moment while being present with the sensations living in you at any given time.
My approach is a combination of various techniques and methods I have studied over the years, as a student but also as a receiver of Bodywork.
I approach every person from a place of compassion and love. All emotions and expressions are welcome.
