The beating heart • healing arts method is a three-pronged approach to healing, in that word’s most expansive sense.

Our emotional, energetic, and physical bodies are inextricably intertwined, and all three must be healthy for a human to feel well.

So we massage, we move, and we make magic.

Massage, whether given by a practitioner, an attuned friend, or yourself, communicates safety to your nervous sytem. Massage therapy allows the survival brain to switch off, bringing you into the present moment, the first step on the path to health.

With the bodily awareness attained through massage, we begin to create new movement pathways and patterns. Guided movement exercises can cultivate connection and capability in the body, opening you up to new ways of being in the world.

Breathing deep and feeling free, you will finally be ready to make your special brand of magic. Every story you have silenced is the muse you seek for. Digest your trauma so you can shit out your shame. Learn to ritualise your life and make art in every moment.
