THE WAY OF THE BODY

Dropping Into Embodiment

Why embodiment?…

So often, when we cut ourselves off from the rich storehouse of sensation and emotion held in our bodies, we also lose access to vitality, aliveness, and the quiet intelligence that lives beneath our surface. This disconnection can show up as numbness, spiritual and emotional stagnation, or layers of stress and physical tension.

But when we begin to listen – really listen – to the truth-telling of our own bodies, a deeper current becomes available.

Through somatic and energetic practices designed to support sensitive inner listening and authentic expression, we attune to the power, wisdom, and flow that lives within us. As the body softens and opens, so too do the channels of connection, creativity, sensitivity, and pleasure. The feminine body begins to remember. To heal. To move. To F L O W.

In this space, we’ll explore and express what lives within…guided by the rhythms of breath, sound, voice, and movement. Supported by evocative music and a steady, secure container of safety and trust, you are invited to meet yourself with honesty, curiosity, and care.This is a space to return to the sacred, essential truth of you.

THE WAY OF TEA

Transporting Into Sacredness

Tea ceremony is a space to return…
to the quiet within,
to the rhythm beneath the rush.

Here, we are invited to slow down and step outside the hurried pace of daily life, held by the gentle presence of tea as our guide. She asks nothing of us. She meets us exactly as we are. A silent, steady teacher, tea opens the door to presence, to stillness, to a quiet sense of connection that lives beneath words.

Rooted in Cha Dao – the Way of Tea – this practice weaves together the elements of fire, water, earth, and air in a simple yet profound ritual. Held in silence, the ceremony becomes a space to listen inwardly… to attune to breath, sensation, spirit, and the subtle language of the leaves.

As the tea moves through us, the mind softens, the heart opens, and the body remembers. We reconnect…not only with ourselves, but with the living world around us.

Both Tea and Embodiment are pathways home –
to presence, to honesty, to the truth that lives in the body.

In Cha Dao, we enter through the quiet.
In Embodiment, we allow that quiet to speak.

Tea invites us to soften, to listen inward, to remember the rhythm beneath the rush. The ceremony creates a field of stillness, where the mind can quiet and the heart can open. From this place of spacious awareness, the body becomes more available…ready to express, to feel, to move, to reveal.

The Embodiment practice picks up this thread.
Through breath, movement, sound, and intuitive exploration, we give voice to what lives within. We follow sensation like a thread, allowing the body to speak what words often cannot. What begins in stillness through tea naturally flows into somatic expression and integration.

Together, these offerings create a living ritual –
a journey from silence into movement, from listening into expression,
from presence into fuller aliveness.

Praise

"When wanting a place to drop into your deep feminine loving self, look no further than a workshop with Keri. She will invite you to dance, move, shake, listen to the guidance of ways back to your divine gorgeous self. Two hours of uninterrupted time for all of You to be nourished and loved. She is deeply moved to guide women, and it is evident. As you walk away, you feel so cared for & deeply loved. Delicious."
Karynne Boese
Master Soul Coach
"I highly recommend the women’s circle Keri hosts to any woman longing to connect in a deeper way with her body, her spirit, and a community of magical women. Keri is wildly intuitive and leads from a place of heart not ego. This means I leave the sessions not only feeling physically recharged and renewed, but also refreshed spiritually."

"Keri has a wonderful way of making everyone feel at home in her circle, not easy especially when done out of necessity via Zoom. Her open, honest and nurturing approach to guiding participants through her workshop feels very organic, pure and what people need to help them through times like these and beyond. A grounded community indeed!"
