The Rooting
$2400/ 13 WEEKS 10 SESSIONS
Seven weeks with one Garden Gateway a week, the seven places along your spine where your body holds and releases, so nothing is rushed. Then six weeks of integration, with a session every other week, so what you learn has time to settle into how you live. Sessions run about two hours, in person in Grover Beach or virtually.
What's inside the 13 weeks
01Arrive and Be heard
We start by checking in together, so I can see where you are that day. This is also where your story is heard, a little more each week.
02Body Mapping
For the first seven weeks, each session focuses on a single Garden Gateway, noticing how and where stress shows up in that part of the body. By week seven you have walked all seven.
03Rooted Science
Understanding how your nervous system and your body speak to each other, through Polyvagal Theory and chakra-based nervous system mapping.
04NEST Integration
A guided NEST process in every session, with optional PEMF and brainwave entrainment, delivered by voice over Zoom or in person through light hands-on touch, depending on your format.
05Take Home Practice
You leave each session with reflection prompts, movement and exercises for the Garden Gateway you are working with, plus nourishment and emotional support tools suited to what came up.
06Between sessions
One or two check ins each week, for all thirteen weeks, keeps the thread alive and helps the work stick. You are never left holding something on your own until the next session.
07Integration
Weeks eight through thirteen bring three more sessions, one every other week. We revisit the Garden Gateways that still need attention and practice using your tools in real life, so the noticing starts to happen on its own.
08Your Garden Map
In your final session we look back at where you began, mark what has shifted, and build a personal plan to carry forward. The complete handout set is yours to keep.
Who this is for and where it leads
- For anyone who understands their patterns and is tired of that not being enough.
- For anyone whose therapy helped their mind while their body stayed on alert.
- For anyone living through a loss or a change that made life feel unfamiliar, whose body is still bracing.
- For graduates who want to keep going, The Tending offers single sessions or a package of six.
Not sure this is the one?
