We had such a beautiful full moon evening together. 🌕✨

Thank you, Val, for sharing your magical sound healing and guiding us on such a beautiful journey.

And thank you to everyone who came out to join us, ground, connect and journey inward.

What a sweet evening with you all. My heart is full. 💛

I prescribed this yesterday to a new patient presenting with some classic signs of Liver Qi stagnation — frustration/irritability, PMS and painful menstrual cramping every month.

I love this particular blend because it combines the well-known classical Chinese herbal formula Xiao Yao San with one of my favorite Western herbs: chastetree berry (Vitex). 🌿

She’ll be coming in for acupuncture treatments weekly, while the herbs provide additional support between treatments. I’ll have her take this throughout the month, then transition to another formula just before and during her period to more specifically support the cramping.

And a little reminder: painful periods are common, but they shouldn’t be something you’re expected to simply endure. There are ways to support the underlying patterns contributing to menstrual pain.

In my experience, when we consistently work with these patterns over several cycles, we can often see significant changes — even when someone has been experiencing symptoms for years.

🌳 Nourishing the Earth Within
A Late Summer Full Moon Ritual 🌕

Join us for a special evening of cacao, self-moxibustion, acupuncture & sound healing as we gather to slow down, reconnect, and nourish ourselves through the wisdom of the Earth Element.

We’ll begin outdoors with ceremonial Oaxacan cacao and barefoot meditation in nature, followed by learning and practicing self-moxibustion on ST-36 (Zusanli)— a treasured point for nourishment, digestion, immunity, and longevity.

Then we’ll move inside for a deeply restorative acupuncture and sound healing journey with my dear friend Valerie of Sacred Wild Healing who is joining us from New York. Val and I have created and shared many beautiful retreats together over the years, so I’m especially excited to welcome her to Moon River for this gathering. 💫

We’ll close the evening feeling grounded, replenished, and held by the rhythms of Late Summer.

🌕 Full Moon Yoga & Acupuncture Workshop 🌕
~~~~ This Friday ~~~~

Spring Awakening II
Releasing Tension & Stress
Friday, May 1 · 6:00–8:00 pm

This full moon gathering invites you to ease out of tension and into a more grounded, relaxed state.

In spring, the Wood Element asks us to move, expand, and flow—but when stress builds, it often shows up as tight shoulders, clenched jaws, headaches, or that stuck, overwhelmed feeling.

This workshop is designed to gently unwind those patterns.

We’ll move through a slow, grounding Yin Yoga practice focused on the neck, shoulders, and hips—areas where tension tends to accumulate—followed by a deeply restorative acupuncture experience to support nervous system regulation and smooth the flow of energy.

✨ This month includes a special self-care practice:
You’ll learn simple gua sha techniques for relieving shoulder and neck tension to use at home, and receive your own gua sha tool to keep.

🌿 Each participant will also receive a sample of Xiao Yao San, a classical herbal formula traditionally used to support stress, emotional balance, and the smooth movement of Liver Qi.

Acupuncture points will be selected to release stagnation, calm the mind, and restore ease throughout the body.

Expect:
– Yin Yoga for deep release
– Acupuncture (optional)
– Gua sha teaching + take-home tool
– Herbal support
– Space to rest, reset, and reconnect

$45 · Limited spots available
✨Pre-registration is required. ✨
Link in bio or DM to save your spot.

Come as you are—leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more at ease in your body.
