Super excited to dig into this book, shipped all the way from England (and signed by the author!!). It’s a biography of Andrew Taylor Still, known as the founder of osteopathy. His philosophy—that the body possesses inherent wisdom and health when obstacles to function are removed—laid the foundation for many manual therapies practiced today, including osteopathy in the cranial field and craniosacral therapy. Still’s legacy continues to inspire practitioners who seek to support the body’s natural balance, resilience, and healing potential.

My girls took a trip to our local library the other day and texted me this sweet find 💖

Goshen friends with babies: I’d love for you to join me for a free infant massage class! Infant massage can support bonding and attachment, help calm the nervous system, improve sleep, aid digestion/gas discomfort, and give parents simple tools to help their babies feel safe and regulated.

It’s a gentle, relaxed space to connect with your little one and learn techniques you can use at home every day 💕

If you know me, I love explaining what I do. Fulcrums are a big part of what I pay attention to in CranioSacral therapy. This is a nice explanation I find helpful if you want to learn a bit more about fulcrums.

The fulcrum is often described as the point on which a lever turns… but in craniosacral, it can be something far more profound.

A fulcrum may be the gentle support of an elbow, the forearm, or simply our therapeutic presence. It exists in the quiet acknowledgment of a patient’s emotional landscape, in the subtle strains held within the fluids, and in the fragility of the central nervous system.

Matching tension is not always physical.
And the fulcrum is not always a place or a point.

Perhaps it is a meeting place — where stillness, presence, and intention come together.

Sutherland spoke of “the balanced stillness of the spiritual universe” as the foundation for the motion of the material universe. He saw this as underlying the nature of everything in existence, including the essential nature of the human being .

As a craniosacral therapist, I work with the body’s connective tissue system, including the dura mater — the deep membrane surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord. I thought this anatomy post was such a fascinating visual of a structure I work with every day through gentle hands-on therapy.

Excited to share that I recently completed a pediatric bodywork course with Susan Vaughan Kratz focused on supporting babies and children through Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, and lymphatic work.

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to continue learning and deepening my understanding of how gentle, hands-on therapies can support growing bodies and developing nervous systems. Working with infants and children is such an honor, and I’m excited to bring what I learned into my practice. 💛

These approaches can help support regulation, comfort, mobility, digestion, and overall well-being in a gentle, child-centered way. I’m thankful for teachers who continue to inspire me and for the families who trust me with their little ones. ✨

This is fascia lined with water in the body, forming a quantum communication network that connects every structure, from muscles and bones to organs and nerves.

Fascia is a web-like tissue that wraps and supports every part of the body. When hydrated, it can transmit subtle signals, enabling coordination and information flow.

Some researchers suggest that the water within fascia allows quantum-level interactions, letting cells communicate more efficiently and rapidly than through conventional biochemical pathways alone.

This network may help explain how the body coordinates movement, heals, and maintains balance, showing that structure and communication are deeply intertwined at both macroscopic and microscopic levels.

Understanding fascia as a quantum communication network reminds us that the human body is not just mechanical, it’s an interconnected, dynamic system, where every part influences the whole.

Does the body keep the score?

I see this debated often in different circles, and honestly, I think many people get lost somewhere between the science and the human experience of living inside a body. What we can measure and what we can feel are not always enemies. Sometimes they are simply different languages describing the same thing.

So I wanted to share some of my own thoughts on it, not as absolute truth, but as reflections gathered from years of working with people, listening to bodies, studying the science, and simply being human myself.

The body adapts around survival in the same way a tree grows around the wind.

If the wind blows hard enough for long enough, the tree cannot help but change because of it. The trunk bends. The roots reach deeper into the earth. Branches twist themselves toward whatever light and safety they can still find. Not because it is broken, but because survival asks living things to bend toward whatever safety they can find.

I think people are much the same.

The nervous system is always listening. To love. To fear. To chaos. To tenderness. It determines whether the world feels safe or unpredictable. And over time, the body quietly shapes itself around those experiences.

As I have said before, I do not think fascia holds heartbreak like a photograph hidden inside tissue. But I do think it can hold the shape your body took while your heart was breaking. Not as a literal memory trapped in muscle, but as patterns the nervous system repeated so many times, the body adapted around them.

Neuroscience gives us one language for this. It talks about autonomic states, conditioned responses, neuroception, and nervous system regulation. Eastern traditions may describe heaviness in the heart center, tightness in the throat, or blocked energy within the body. Personally, I do not think those ideas need to fight each other all the time. Sometimes, symbolic language helps people finally describe experiences they have felt for years but never knew how to explain.

And after enough time, survival patterns can start to feel like identity. Like personality. Like “this is just who I am.”

But I do not think the body should be blamed for the ways it learned to survive.

And maybe healing is not about forcing the tree to stand straight again.

Maybe it is about finally finding an environment gentle enough that the body no longer feels the need to keep growing around the storm.
