Reweaving a new way to practice

We’re Building a Different Rhythm of Care

Hi there,

I had a last minute cancellation:

Wednesday July 8th 2p (Great for sliding scale option. It's only 60 mins)

Thursday July 9th 830a

Friday July 10th 230p & 430p

**EMAIL ME If you want these as they may not show up on the scheduler**

Body Wisdom begins 7/12/26 8a

And will continue weekly. I just ask that you register 24 hours in advance.

I’m also inviting you to bring a friend for FREE use the code HUMAN1ST on the check out screen for your friend.

**What is Body Wisdom?** An opportunity to move your body with intention with a group of people exploring moving. Just come. Check it out.

Just a reminder..

As summer continues, I’m beginning to shift my schedule to better align with my kids being home more.

Motherhood is not something I work around, it’s an archetype I live inside of. And more and more, I’m allowing it to shape how I run my business, how I pace my days, and how I show up in my work. Our culture is shifting and I'm loosening my grip on the grind, focusing in on what nourishes, and allowing that to return.

If you wish to explore how motherhood can be a spiritual practice, join me in Mother Circle to see how you can create resources and support for you and your family. Find yourself in your motherhood journey within Mother Circle.

Because of that, my availability for July and August will be more limited and a bit different than usual.

If you’ve been wanting to come in, or you know your body benefits from consistent care, I encourage you to look ahead and schedule now. Having something on the calendar can create a sense of steadiness, for both of us.

There’s something I’ve come to trust:
When my life feels supported, I show up more fully in session.
And when you’re here, receiving care, you are part of that support.

Not in a transactional way, but in a real, human, interconnected way.

Thank you for being here, for trusting me with your body, and for being part of this ecosystem we’re building together.

There are a few new (and honestly, delicious) offerings I’ve been weaving in:

• {NEW!} Intra-oral + facial massage — for those holding tension in the jaw, face, or nervous system or you have a history of headaches. (and also has a connection to the pelvic diaphragm) This work can be subtle and profound, softening patterns we often don’t realize we’re carrying. This can be added to your session or a session on its own.

• The Soleful Reset (4 hours) — a deeply immersive experience. Think: layers of warmth, intuitive touch, rest, and time stretching just enough for your system to truly exhale. This is one of the most generous ways to receive.

• Love Your Low Back (Add-on to any table session) — You're feeling the creak and the ache especially in your low back? Yeah, let's focus on that. I don't want to take away from the other work we do on the table so let's add a little extra time and focus up on your low back, QLs, Psoas, pelvis, hip flexors, and gastrocs.

• Postpartum care (Closing of the Bones / Blessingway) — for those in a threshold moment. Whether you’re preparing for a new baby or newly postpartum or tending to an older transition, this work honors the body in its transition and its integration.

I’ve also brought in some beautiful new tools and textures that I can’t wait for you to experience… the kind that make your body say "thank you for that!"

If you’ve been meaning to come in, or your body has been whispering (or shouting), now is a really lovely time to listen.

​You can book here​

I want to say, thank you for being part of this space. Whether you come in regularly, occasionally, or are simply here reading these words… this work is shaped by relationship.

If you’re wanting to stay connected in a different way, I’ve been sharing more on the podcast lately, and the Patreon is still open as a softer, ongoing space to engage with this work outside the treatment room.

More soon on something I’ve been quietly building around that less transactional, more relational but for now, just know you’re invited into it.

I've been sending emails about new offerings but I wanted to put them all in one place. And give you a few more.

The way we birth and recover is evolving (& remembering). Read this. ​

The way you could see me is morphing. (The Spring membership is emerging soon) Read this.

"I found myself able to decompress better during and after Sara's Body Wisdom program. You would think 'mind opening' would be this big deal, but the program is very accessible and low key. It was the calm eye of the storm in my life. Sara is good at walking you through ways to let go of the next things you need to do for a bit. Life is pretty over stimulating. The calm and space to just be present in the moment, and breathe, is welcome. The program sessions were the perfect length of time. One of my favorite things is how Sara welcomes everyone before and after the session. Her practice space is ideal and has sunshine and tea. The experience was so welcoming."

📍Classes upcoming in my teaching space

I want to be clear about something, I believe in care as a practice. In remembering one another’s humanity, even when the world forgets. Even when the powers at large are shifting the tides in what we model and consume as human value. I stand firm in my progressive values and everyone deserves the right to equality, dignity, and justice. We're not going back. If you’re a woman, femme, queer, ND neurodivergent, BIPOC, you are seen and held here.

These times call for the helpers to emerge. I've always held the space to help the helpers.

If you are an organizer or activist, you can use the CODE: HUMAN1ST to jump into the Body Wisdom course at no cost. The work you're doing is important, let me hold some of this with you. Please spread this word quietly to ensure safety.

Thank you for reading. It means the world to me.

Remember, a one-word reply to this email does wonders for email deliverability. I also love to hear from the ones reading this. Plus, I like to know I'm not just yelling into a void when I send these. :) You can also like, share, and comment on social media. It all helps us small biz folks.

The podcast has been on a little pause. A New Class! Many of you have LOVED the new service, Intra-Oral Massage. You can still receive that! As I've developed this, I could feel something emerging. This work can be done by YOU--at home! And I found it pairing so nicely with the lymphatic work that I attribute to some of what helped me improve my POTs/Long Covid symptoms.
