EDS/Dysautonomia Resources + Tools we discussed today:

Talking with Neko Three Sixty aka @devocean_hawk_heart about rest, opening up to receive more deeply, the mythical path of motherhood, the necessity of community, and the magic all around us.

Neko is a multi-faceted diamond witch devoted to the path of the alchemical marriage; where our opposites (like pain and pleasure, good and evil, separate and oneness) are equally held with divine reverence, so that our suffering within and without may be transmuted into gratitude, deep learning, playful awareness and magic in action! She is the Divine Domme of our production crew at www.Mythaca.com and regularly melts into prayerful puddles on the dance floor.

She has decades (and lifetimes) of experience and deeply studied and practiced Tantrika, RYT-1000 yoga teacher, Sound Healer, Reiki Practitioner, Herbalist, Tarot + Astrology, and Psychic healer. She hosts and DJs (as DevOcean) Dance Sanctuary, a consent based, conscious dance and contact improv event every Thursday at the Foundation of Light.
