Wherever you are, I'll meet you there!

About Me

I am committed to holding space for you, welcoming you home to your own heart! Helping you navigate back to this present moment and to the space that holds you exactly as you are! A reminding of the perfection that is you!

I am so glad you are here!

My own journey to this present moment, an initiation that began over 30 years ago, has not been easy, but I am so grateful to the gift of grace that brought me here. My 20’s was the initiation to self, a journey of exploration, play and travel, of leadership in the non-profit sector, the beginning of my studies in meditation and alternative and energy health practices. My 30’s was the initiation into motherhood, a journey and exploration of unconditional love and the initiation into career as a Registered Midwife. My 40’s begin as the initiation to the ego’s expression of my best life which took a 180 degree turn in my mid 40’s to the initiation into an incredibly dark period of time after a car accident literally stopped me in my tracks. This was the initiation and the invitation to come back to Self, a journey to finding my true heart’s purpose.

I am so grateful for these journeys, graciously and not so graciously inviting me to the opportunity to do my own work, to develop my capacity to sit and hold space for you.

I continue to follow my heart and my love and dedication to learning. At present, I am currently enrolled in the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certificate program with Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield, as well as the Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy Certification program. I will always be a learner, and continue to study and grow my roots in my practices of Sacred Healing Journeys, Reiki, Somatic Inquiry, and in the space of circles and ritual.

Your heart knows the way. Run in that direction. - Rumi

Intuitive Reiki and Craniosacral Healing

As an Usui Reiki Master and student of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, I believe in the inherent wisdom of the body, and its ability to strengthen and heal. If met by hands that can simply hold and meet the body, the body can and will find its rhythm and resonance of strength. In these systems, it is believed that a person’s chi, life force or energy should be strong and free flowing. When this is true a person’s body and mind is in a positive state of health. When the energy becomes weak or blocked it could lead to symptoms of physical or emotional imbalance. The beautiful gift of Reiki and Craniosacral Therapy is the reminder to the body of its incredible life force and ability to return to balance.

Intuitive Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy can be combined with Somatic Inquiry and Sacred Spirit Healing to include messages and wisdom shared for you from Spirit, Healing Guides or Ancestors.

A Reiki session can be in person or through distance, and Craniosacral Therapy is offered in person. Both can help support and open the body to its own innate wisdom for healing on all levels – physical, mental, and emotional.

Women's Sharing Circle

A Time to Arrive to the Heart of Presence

Next Circles Start:

Circle One starts on March 22nd 2021 9am PST

Circle Two starts on March 31st 2021 5pm PST

At a time in our shared story, there is so much that we are carrying. So much that may be unexpressed, may be unfelt. The invitation, come into a circle of women where you can be held and witnessed. Sharing Circles, also known as Talking Circles, are based on sacred tradition. In a sharing circle, everyone is equal, and everyone belongs. Here the Sharing Circle begins with a guided meditation, followed by the opening of the space to share about your present moment experience with others in the circle. Each circle is uniquely created based on the intentions and goals of the group.

There will be 2 circle offerings. Each circle participant will have a 30 minute one-to-one meeting with Julia to become acquainted with the mindfulness practice we will be using in the circles. The circles will run for 6 consecutive weeks, each for 90 minutes, and the one-to-one’s will take place the week prior to the first circle gathering. Each circle will have a maximum of 6 participants, and each participant is asked to commit to the 6 week sharing circle cycle.

Matrix Integration

An Online Ten-Month Exploration

Join Lisa Meuser and I in a ten-month exploration to meet the places that are holding the wounds of our yesterday and those places that are looking externally for the love we have always needed and wanted while slowly developing a trust in something larger than oneself as we walk toward the possibility of living and loving from a place of embodiment.

Currently underway. Feel free to touch base about future possibilities or for private sessions.

Testimonials

“I've known Julia for what seems like a lifetime now, even though it's only been 18 months. She has been the person I go to when my nervous system has needed to settle; when I am fearful, anxious, sad, or alone. She's also been the person I go to when I need to share something I'm excited about; when I'm happy, joyful, at peace, or simply neutral. She's been able to hold it all. Whatever has come up in me, she's been able to meet it just as it is, with loving kindness and open arms.

I could talk for a long time about Julia's admirable qualities, but I think it suffice to say that, among other things, she is a deep listener, an insightful, caring and loving human being, a wise counsellor, and the sort of comrade you want by your side in battle; the ideal companion on a long, dangerous journey; a level-headed leader in times of extreme crisis; and a comforting friend, sitting next to you at the end of your hardest challenges, as you reflect on your experiences in life and survey the terrain you've just crossed. I couldn't have asked for a better blessing in my life.”
