In this episode, our host Gaby Azorsky speaks with Kristen Cassie. Kristen is a Trauma trained Somatic Practitioner and Clinical Herbalist. In her sessions, we re-member what it is like to be connected to our bodies, to the Earth and to the wisdom that flows through all. Though trauma-informed somatic healing, parts work and inner child work, herbal therapies, and embodiment practice, she can HOLD SPACE. 

Kristen is the founder of the herbal medicine line, Moon Canyon, with her dear friend and business partner, Sarah Dolan. Moon Canyon is rooted in the belief that all healing is relational and reciprocal in nature. Kristen and Sarah are herbalists, who have come together to remember what it is to heal in community. As practitioners in the healing arts, they tend the relationship between self and the natural world. Co-creatively they formulate herbal medicines and practice healing modalities that awaken the body and spirit into a place of aliveness. I love their products and the intentionally depth and beauty they create, especially their seasonal medicine boxes. 

While working with her and Moon Canyon last year, I got to witness her speak continuously about herbs, the earth, and somatic healing. Hearing Kristen speak on these topics is soothing, safe, and mesmerizing. Kristen and I talk about her story, somatic healing, herbalism, plant allies, integration, parts work, grounding, our nervous systems, and at the end, Kristen shares tactical tips for regulating our bodies along with a yummy grounding practice. 

I hope you feel held and expanded while listening ~

Thank you Kristen for your beautiful energy, guidance, wisdom, and story!
