Wintering – A Retreat For Women Writers & Creatives
You don’t lose your creative spark in the winter.
It just burns differently.
You may feel that winter is a time of creative drought and lethargy, yet it’s actually the richest season of the year – and no one has shown you how to harness its power – until now.
At the start of the new year, and after the whirlwind of the holiday season, I invite you to join me, along with two guest facilitators and fellow creatives for Wintering – A Retreat For Women Writers & Creatives. Together we will recharge our energy, reconnect with our inner creative spark, and work with winter as our muse.
When: January 13 – 16, 2027
Where: The Whittaker Inn – 702 W 500 N, West Lafayette, IN 47906

In-Depth Somatic Study at Grateful Yoga in Evanston
I’m delighted to share with you that I’ve been graciously invited back to teach a 4 week workshop at Grateful Yoga in Evanston that will bridge together all that my practice has to offer you!
Unwinding The Web
Tension patterns in the body can be more complex than they appear. Myofascial Release experts like Ida Rolf and John Barnes offer insights with sayings such as, “Where you think it is, it ain’t,” and “Treat the symptom, look elsewhere for the cause.” These suggest that the tension and pain we experience might originate from other areas.
In this four-week series, Unwinding the Web, we will explore common tension patterns, such as nervous system regulation, low back pain, TMJ dysfunction, and text neck. Our aim is to help you identify the root of these tensions through myofascial release, breathwork and conscious movement.
Join us to uncover where you might be entangled in your fascial web and learn how to unwind it.
Join us for one, two or all four of the sessions! Details below:
When: Fridays November 6, 13, 20 and December 4
Time: 9:30am-10:45am CST
Where: Grateful Yoga – 1108 Davis Street – Evanston
Reiki Level I – I:I Attunement, Training & Certification
Reiki means “universal life energy.”
This healing energy helps reduce stress, promotes deep relaxation, and harmonizes the body, mind, and spirit by balancing the subtle energetic pathways throughout the body.
Reiki Level 1 training focuses on healing thy self.
This is where you will learn how to put the energetic oxygen mask on yourself FIRST before placing it on anyone else, so to speak. When you replenish and balance your energy first, you are better equipped to help others when you feel good yourself.
Reiki Leve II – I:I Attunement, Training & Certification
Reiki Level II focuses on working with others, in person, and from a distance.
Together we will be going into more depth over the aura and chakra systems, as well as, enhancing your ability to connect with and access Reiki energy while working with others. At the completion of this course, you will be able to give Reiki treatments in a professional manner.
