Love, Clarity and Ease are my top values

I'm awesome, and thankfully the percentage of time that I'm aware of that is increasing. Sometimes I'm more humble, and sometimes I am deeply feeling the feels of being a messy, uncomfortable human (Enneagram 4).

I make beautiful soul-guided art, touch people with my hands and presence, connect authentically and continually expand my capacity to be more honest. Colorado native, I might move soon, and I'm expanding my hands-on healing practice to include more work online and facilitating groups because 1) I imagine it would make moving easier, 2) I believe it's my job to facilitate groups and I've just been scared to bring those gifts out to the world, and 3) It's time.

I LOVE to dance. LOVE LOVE LOVE to dance. Ecstatic dance most of all. My favorite dances have been those held consciously, with 20-30 people, starting with an opening circle and dropping in together with intention, perhaps including some experimental dance lab, then free-form unguided dance to amazing music, in a sacred temple in the woods.

Highly Sensitive Person who usually knows how to be with her sensitivity with grace and ease, and is continuing to expand the capacity of this gift with healthy boundaries and voicing desires. Imperfect human who sometimes strives for perfection, sometimes is a mess and is perfectly ok with that.

Values attuned touch and presence, and clear communication.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in many states with kind, generous people when I traveled for a random vacation, ceramics workshops and concerts. I hosted a few people in Boulder. My favorite experience yet was hosting a cool musician who performed a couch concert in my living room.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traded my car for a bike at New Belgium Brewery's Tour de Fat 2007 in Fort Collins, CO & I vowed to be car free for one year. Many people say that was crazy. Mid-winter came along and I began to to agree with them... now it depends on the day whether I enjoy traveling more by bicycle, bus, or car.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about your body and point out postural anomalies. I can show you stretches and self-care to help you become limber, re-aligned and healthy.

I want to learn Spanish, composting, tai-chi, cello, and much, much more.
