Your bodymind is the most powerful healing tool there is
- our job is to simply unlock it.
Named for the alchemical substance that creates the Elixir of Life, heals all wounds, and transforms base metals into pure gold, acknowledging and celebrating the inextricable entanglement of
The Scientific and The Spiritual,
The Magickal and The Mundane,
The Physical and The Metaphysical,
Philosopher's Stone represents a philosophy and a praxis that embraces our human existence as bodymindspirit.
If you are looking to make real, meaningful, lasting change in your relationship with your bodymind and in your life, you are in the right place! A place for a "just treat yourself" massage or a spa treatment this is not.
Working with respect for your absolute wholeness and autonomy, we leverage philosophies of "direction of ease" and 4 Body Interdependence to honor the path that your own body has already laid out toward healing. My ability to follow the threads and help you discern your bodymind's messages and unconscious needs (the most important part) has been cultivated and honed over a decade, evolving alongside my practice.
Philosopher's Stone was reborn from the evolution of passion.
Specializing in pelvic health, dedicated to serving those who are experiencing pain and trauma similar to that from which I had healed, I opened Philosopher’s Stone - in its first iteration - in 2015. I was so fortunate to be able to support hundreds of amazing people within that space, and facilitate many outstanding transformations. However, it became clear that something was missing from the purely structural approach I had initially been using.
The pelvis truly is the seat of the soul. Where matter and magick meet. As such, of course the root of pain in this center is always a combination of both.
(*Face palm* from my former self who tried to only address one!)
Slowly, the energetic elements (ie the magickal parts of me) I had put aside began to make their way into my sessions. These gifts were first channeled through nervous system assessment and limbic realignment, then through somatic work, and deeper with shadow work and symbol activation. These were missing keys that I knew needed to be expanded.
Seeking to further hone my natural energetic and intuitive abilities just as I did (and do) for my talent with hands-on work, I began an adventure to study with masterful teachers around the world in 2021. Bit by bit, rituals, ancient wisdom, forgotten magick, and a more refined taste for energetic flow made their way into my hands. Thailand, Australia, South Africa, Mexico and a couple of mystery schools shared through the miracle of internet later
Philosopher's Stone reemerged.
Years of learning, experimentation, practice, and experience (which wonderfully continue to evolve as I do) have culminated into offerings that are profoundly life-changing and that I am incredibly grateful to be able to share.
If you are ready to shift into the life you deserve, free from the pain that has plagued you, free to be fully alive, I am here to help you activate your personal Philosopher's Stone.
