Values and Guiding Principles
My Core Values
The work I offer through Reiki, Shamanism, Life Coaching and Somatic Bodywork is rooted in presence, care, and trust in the innate wisdom of each person. These values are the foundation of how I hold space, and they are present in every session, ceremony, and course I share.
Values are more than words. They are living principles that guide how I show up in relationship with clients, with the spirit world, with the land, and with myself. These are the values that shape the energy, ethics, and intentions of my practice.
1. Flow and Interconnection
We are all part of a larger flow of life. Just as energy moves through the body, life moves through us in seasons, cycles, and moments of transformation. My work supports your re-connection to that flow, bringing ease where there is tension and clarity where there is confusion. Whether through Reiki, ritual, coaching or shamanic guidance, we honor your rhythm and the greater web you are part of.
2. Embodied Communication
Healing is not just about words. It also lives in gestures, breath, stillness, and touch. I listen with my whole self, attuning to what is spoken and what is felt beneath the surface. Together we create a space of honest and compassionate communication, where your truth is welcome and transformation is possible.
3. Honoring Individuality and Soul Path
You are a unique being with your own timing, story, and medicine. I do not offer one-size-fits-all solutions. My role is to walk beside you as you remember who you are and what you need. I bring tools, but you bring the wisdom. Together, we follow the path that is right for you.
4. Rooted Empowerment
Life brings challenges, but within those challenges is often deep medicine. I do not believe in bypassing pain, but in meeting it with curiosity and compassion. My work invites you to explore how even the difficult moments can become sources of insight, strength, and growth.
5. Sacred Reciprocity and Respect
Respect is central to every session, course and ceremony. This includes respect for your body, your story, your ancestors, your choices, and your pace. I also work in reverence with the spirits and lineages that guide my practice. Healing is not a transaction, it is a relationship based on mutual care and honoring.
Respecting others for their individuality and differences in a non-judgmental way, is a substantial part of creating healthy relationships with our clients. Without this, true learning cannot take place. Furthermore, the path of being a practitioner is a path of learning to respect others, for the life circumstances they are dealing with, for their character and spirit, and for the personal goals they pursue.
6. Safety, Consent, and Integrity
Healing happens when we feel safe enough to open. I hold a steady and grounded space that invites softness and trust. I always ask for consent, not just in touch, but in energy work and spiritual process. I am committed to working in integrity, with ongoing supervision, study, and reflection to keep my practice accountable.
7. Wholeness and Integration
Our culture often encourages fragmentation. My work supports the integration of all your parts: body, mind, spirit, emotion, ancestry. Together we tend to your inner landscape so that you can move through life more connected, more present, and more in tune with your own guidance. After each session, I offer tools and practices to help you carry the work forward into everyday life.
8. Earth Connection and Ancestral Wisdom
This work is not only personal, it is relational. I honor the land beneath us, the spirits around us, and the ancestors who made our lives possible. My shamanic practice is rooted in indigenous and ancestral frameworks that understand the Earth as a living being, a teacher, and an ally. I carry these traditions with humility and responsibility, and seek to decolonize my practice through ongoing study, listening, and repair.
9. Safer Space and Collective Care
As a queer person and someone walking a spiritual path, I care deeply about creating spaces where people can show up as they are. I hold an intention for my practice to be a space of dignity, care, and mutual respect. That means not tolerating racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, classism, fascism or other forms of dehumanization. These systems create real harm and they do not belong in healing spaces.
My political values are shaped by kindness, respect, love, autonomy, and a belief in the power of collective care. I am drawn to practices that question hierarchy and center lived experience, embodiment, and community. I am not here to fix or lead. I am here to walk with you, side by side, as you reclaim your power and your wholeness.
This is imperfect, evolving work. I do not claim to have all the answers, but I am committed to staying in the work. This space is one where complexity is welcome, where truth can be spoken, and where healing is an act of remembering that we belong to each other.
