Marie, Embodied

What to expect from my little corner of the internet

I never meant to share all this, but sometimes the universe has plans that I could never predict. When Spirit calls you to do a thing it’s best to do it.

I grew up feeling small and unimportant. Nothing special, nothing worth noticing. While I write this I still feel insignificant in so many ways - yet infused with a mission and a clarity louder than words.

It lives in my body - this deeper knowing that I’m here to do something of substance. To touch people’s hearts and minds. To influence culture - no matter how small and quaint - towards a pathway that I feel in my bones is true and whole and good.

When this gnosis runs through me it’s electric. Undeniable. When I try to ignore it, I suffer.

So here I am sharing a piece of my heart with the world - with you.

On this account you’ll find many pieces of me, and over time perhaps they’ll form a mosaic for the human I am. Deep, sensitive, soft yet piercing, and often quite silly - a pragmatic dreamer in so many ways.

Officially I’m a herbalist and somatic therapist - but can these titles ever really do justice to the beating heart behind the words?

I am a woman who has felt deep pain and found ways to unravel it. I am an explorer of strange places - navigating emotional & etheric murky waters that our culture likes to avoid. I am a raw human, dancing through this world like an exposed nerve - feeling it all, and trying to make sense of it.

I am so many things.

Expect to find writings about the many healing modalities that have shaped my world, the insights I’ve gained as a sensitive soul in a world severed from the heart - my rage, joy, sorrow and confusion from living a life in this upside-down-culture.

All of me, raw and true, poured onto these pages in the hopes that my words might touch your heart as deeply as they’ve touched mine.
