Watch here a videoed conversation between Grief Tending Facilitator Sarah Pletts and me about our work with people who are grieving, whether from bereavement or another form of loss. Together, we share and reflect upon the nature of living, losing, and the process of grieving (57 min).

Our skin is a sensory wonder, with thousands of nerve endings that sense information about us in our environment. But did you know that there is a nerve fibre that discerns and conveys the emotional aspects of touch?

Surrender in the context of bodywork can be a powerful act of volition and a profound choice for self-care. When both body and mind are given space-enough and feel safe-enough to relax their holding, what emerges can be profound.

Given the inextricable connection between body and mind, sensitive and holistic bodywork can be an excellent support to the talk therapy process.

Our minds can become clearer through noticing the body, enabling us to arrive in the present moment.

When we give more than (or different to) what is asked for, who is that really for?
