What you’ve been searching for isn’t out there, 
it’s already inside you,
ready to be lived and enjoyed through your body.

Whether you feel disconnected and uncertain of where you’re headed, or longing to live with greater clarity from your inner wisdom, this work guides you home to a steadier sense of belonging, in yourself, with others, and in your life. So many of us try to think our way into clarity, but end up overextended and doubting ourselves. My work offers another way: embodied practices that ease the restlessness and reconnect you with your inner compass. Through movement, stillness, and deep listening, you’re invited to live your authenticity, in how you relate, create, and simply be. From here, life feels steadier, more nourishing, and truly your own.

What is Embodiment ?

Embodiment is simply the practice of living from your body, instead of being led by your mind. Most of us spend our days in the mind, analyzing, controlling, trying to figure everything out. Even in many ‘body practices,’ thoughts are still in charge, tracking and evaluating. Embodiment is different. It doesn’t ask you to do more. It invites you to let go. To soften. To stop managing and start feeling. This work isn’t about fixing or upgrading yourself. It’s about coming back to the quiet, steady truth your body already holds: how to be, how to heal, how to guide you. You don’t need to study your nervous system or learn energy maps to feel whole and safe. You can let your mind explore those things if it wants to be entertained, but lived embodiment can only be experienced, not thought through. If you’ve tried somatic practices that ask you to witness or track your body’s experiences, they may have given you insight. But embodiment asks for something deeper: to stop observing from outside your experience, and instead be fully in it, alive, grounded, and at home in yourself. This is the journey of returning, of letting the body lead, and of coming back again and again to what can be felt right now. I welcome you into a way of being that begins exactly as you are, and grows into something richer, steadier, and deeply your own.

 I have been a student of Olivia’s for nearly 15 years (having practiced for 23 years). I do not know of many teachers who have spent so much time themselves on their mat practicing. I feel her instruction comes directly from her own experience into my body. To be guided in this way brings not only a feeling of safety but also a warmth and softness that I have only ever felt with Olivia. As my body, and my age continues to change, I feel deeply supported by Olivia. Her genuine curiosity and commitment to understanding the needs of women older than herself is not only rare, but something that radiates through her teaching and the nurturing space she holds.
