How this applies to your life:
The energetic support and loving awareness you receive gives your body permission to stay with your process and connect more deeply with your inner voice and intuition. You can think of this experience as a workout at the gym - it strengthens your psychological "muscles" and emotional resiliency to stay grounded amidst either discomfort, pure bliss, or both.
Doing this work in a safe, supported ceremony translates into improving your ability to stay fully present in life and respond, not react, when triggers/activation occurs.
Being in this supportive presence allows you to reach places within that can be more challenging to access. Feel what the emotions of joy, love, and vitality feel like in your body. Even sadness, grief, and anger. We're here for it all and will go as deep as you feel ready because we know that emotions get stuck in the body and the only way out is through.
Safety is paramount for us and we're here to meet you exactly where you are, trusting that however "much" you feel, it is exactly the right amount. We will never push you to go beyond your window of tolerance/what feels safe.
See what people are saying:
"This event created a bridge over the gap between me and my emotions. In other words, between me and my authentic self. Since attending these events, I've been more in touch with my emotions and intuition, which is why I keep coming back. Every time I learn something new about myself and I apply it into my every day life. I'm able to stay regulated more easily during challenging conversations with others (something that used to be really hard for me!). I'm also better at checking in with myself to know what I am actually feeling vs just feeling "off" or "in a bad mood," and this clarity helps me connect to what I actually need."
“Being someone who usually lays back during a sincere experience only to battle boredom, reluctance to fully go “there”, or even judgement over how a facilitator speaks, I was very pleasantly surprised to find myself laughing, crying, and full body shaking while I moved through and integrated A LOT.”
“I was able to access more difficult emotions and open a dialogue with past and future versions of myself. I could better connect with the feelings of shame, anger and joy, and what they felt like in my body. After what seemed like an internal yelling match between parts of myself, (permitting anger is difficult for me) it allowed me to tap into more compassion for myself and encouraged strength for my present being.”
"I was able to access the sadness I was feeling during my parents divorce so many years ago. It's been 20 years and I didn't realize I hadn't given myself permission to really feel the loneliness and sadness I felt. Through the use of Cannabis and Betsy/Kat's guidance, I was able to titrate my experience and "bump up" against the edge of feeling that depth of sadness in an amount that felt tolerable. I could sense I'm not ready to feel all of it fully and I'm grateful for the gift of this experience where I could control how much I leaned into it."

Previous experiences:
“As soon as I arrived, I knew I was I the right place. An intimate group of women met me with warmth and kind eyes, and there was definite excitement and curiosity buzzing in the air. As we sat down and dove in, this feeling only grew- I knew that this is exactly what I have been asking for.
I have recently felt a polarity between who I am- a regular cannabis user- and who I want to be- someone who practices meditation and connects to my body deeply. Finally I felt a bridge that could seamlessly connect and enhance these sides of myself.
Katie and Betsy did a wonderful job walking us through an overview of the evening, going in depth around many areas of information for our experience, and setting a safe container. When it was time to lay back and go into our journey, I felt safe, knowledgeable, and prepared. I knew these women had my back and would support and hold me in whatever way I needed. The amount of honesty, integrity, and trust these women created in such a brief time was astounding.
When Betsy mentioned her experience of formerly prioritizing cognitive therapy, before somatics completely changed the game for her, I got excited. This felt like exactly where I am in my healing journey as a very logical woman who loves to unravel my past through language. I have been craving a more embodied meditation practice , healing journey, and to foster and rekindle a connection to my bodies innate wisdom.
I felt the facilitation in the body wisdom workshop could NOT have been better. Both Katie and Betsy felt so in sync, bringing their gifts to us with an earnest desire to gift us these tools that help connect to what we already hold in ourselves- the ability to heal.
Being someone who usually lays back during a sincere experience only to battle boredom, reluctance to fully go “there”, or even judgement over how a facilitator speaks, I was very pleasantly surprised to find myself laughing, crying, and full body shaking while I moved through and integrated A LOT.
The guided mediation gave me exactly what I needed to feel safe, seen, loved, and held in vulnerability. My experience with Katie and Betsy was profound for me, and I walked away with so much gratitude, as well as awe at what these women are offering.
If you, like me, have never brought a medicinal mindset to cannabis consumption…then this experience is definitely for you. I will absolutely attend again (and again).“
