About

John Muir wrote this in his journal during his first summer in the Sierras, and his words have become a through line in my life and studies over the last decade. Interconnectivity, reciprocity, and intersectionality all fundamentally inform how I move through the world and how I approach my work. I see the body as is its own ecosystem—held in a single continuous fascial network, each input rippling through the whole system, weaving a tapestry of our inherited and lived experiences. Each part only exists and can only be understood in the context of the whole.

In my work, this guides me toward an intention for inclusivity, for reverence, for humility, for expansiveness. Toward a deeper understanding of the delicacy of interdependence between my own nervous system resourcing and my ability to support other nervous systems, between systems of supremacy and oppression and our collective ability to be well. This guides me toward a way to understand that healing and care must be universal in order to be specific, and that we must hold awareness and respect for the whole universe while tending to any individual part.
