SPACES

I believe spaces are similar to bodies — that attention turned toward them can facilitate balance that ripples out into all areas of life — and I approach spaces in the same way that I do individuals: by asking how to pull forward ease, connection, and renewal from what is already there.

Spaces work is a collaborative effort, uniquely attuned to each situation and client. Meditative visualization, attention to the body, and intuitive conversation help determine guide our work together, and sessions often take on their own restorative or healing qualities, moving far beyond the functional work of space-making.

The form and frequency of this work varies by project. We might meet for an afternoon to renew a single room, or approach an entire home over the course of several months. Spaces work often includes physical decluttering and cleaning, as well as changes, subtractions, and additions to help support the room’s functionality and the body’s experience of the space.

Spaces work can provide important support for life changes and may move into non-physical realms, if this feels of benefit to the client. Some examples include a completion ceremony with a home being sold, a clearing ritual before move-in, separation work after a break-up or divorce, protection for a space that has been harmed, and transition for spaces during death and grieving processes.
