Step Into Session

My here and now is holding space for healing through connection with spirit.

My rites as a shaman were passed to me by my grandmother. I grew up in the shamanic path with nursery rhymes, games in the forest, relationships with plants, and working with my grandmother to serve those who sought her care.

My bedside experience is extensive. I’ve spent 17 years in western medicine, including 13 years serving on an ambulance. Once you've witnessed humanity in its grittiest form, you cannot help but love humans. This clear witness, free of judgment, I offer to you.

When we step into session, I use the tools of my lineage to hold space for your deepest work. Our time together allows space for intention setting, a shamanic journey, The Work, and integration. The Work may include clearings, extractions, cord cutting, soul retrieval, or something else. I see you in your darkness, I remind you of your light.

I am certified in Applied Polyvagal Theory and firmly believe the regulation of our nervous system, predominately the vagus nerve, is the major factor in releasing trauma. I see similarities in the somatic therapies of nervous system regulation and the healing rituals of my lineage. I offer this dualistic understanding, to you.

I firmly believe in the societal role of the shaman and our community's need to return to communion with the planet and each other. A seat at my table, I offer to you.

Who am I?

Good question. I like you already.

I am a survivor. I was given an especially tumultuous path in this life, abuse + pain + nervous system dysregulation led me to the darkest depths. I fought + clawed my way out and am now filled with gratitude to show others the path I so hard won.

I am a teacher. I teach human physiology, pharmacology, patient assessment, the works. Equally important, I teach Grounding techniques, work/life balance and mental health awareness.

I’m a builder. I build programs. Organizations. Businesses. I’m a strong manifestor + whole-ass everything I do. (A Lauren never half-asses anything)

I am boitiu. My rites as a shaman were passed to me by my grandmother. I grew up in the shamanic path with nursery rhymes, games in the forest, relationships with plants, + working with my grandmother to serve those who sought her care.

I’m a person. I make mistakes. I giggle when it’s inconvenient. I always wait until I’m running on fumes to fill the tank. I prefer my cat to most humans. I drink a lot of tea.
