When we arrive in our bodies first, through breakthwork and reiki, we tell a different kind of truth. That's exactly what happened here. What unfolded was a group of women showing up honestly, allowing themselves to be seen, and trusting that whatever wanted to emerge would be enough.

Our theme was Let It Be Easier, we realized that ease isn't the absence of hardship. It's the willingness to soften instead of forcing, to trust instead of gripping, and to let ourselves be fully present with whatever season we're living through. As each woman shared her own story, we found ourselves talking about grief, parenting, caregiving, relationships, purpose, self-trust, and the ways we slowly find our way back to ourselves.

Here's some of what we explored together:

• How Breathwork infused with Reiki helps us arrive differently every single time, meeting us exactly where we are.
• Grief, divorce, motherhood, caregiving, and navigating seasons that ask more of us than we feel ready to give.
• The difference between feeling an emotion, getting caught in the story around it, and learning to move through both with greater compassion.
• Releasing perfectionism, productivity, people pleasing, and the pressure to carry everything on our own.
• Trusting our bodies, our intuition, our own timing, and the unfolding of life, even when we can't yet see where it's leading.
• Why authentic community can become one of the most powerful forms of healing.

There were so many moments I'll continue carrying with me, especially this simple question: "What if letting go was as easy as taking a breath?"

I hope this conversation reminds you that you don't have to figure everything out before taking your next step. I hope it gives you permission to trust your own rhythm a little more, receive support a little more freely, and remember that healing often happens in the presence of people who are willing to tell the truth.

I was honored to stand in conversation with Amanda Folkestad @portlandpink Michelle Rios @michelle.rios.official Robyn Cohen @robyncohenactingstudio Dana Shalit @danashalit Anna K. Morris  @iamannakmorris Cora Poage @coachcoco and Claudia Noriega-Bernstein. @claudia_noriega_bernstein

If you'd like to experience Breathwork infused with Reiki for yourself, I'd love to welcome you into one of my classes, private sessions, sound bath healings, or First and Second Degree Reiki Certification retreats.
