ONE TO ONE SESSIONS

ECO MIRRORING & INTERSPECIES RELATING

EDUCATION EXPANSION

I am deeply passionate about the lense of education being expanded and re-membered into something that more closely resembles our  biological imperative to become the powerful, fully human, beings we have the capacity to be. And to use this to contribute meaningfully to humanity and the world around us.

At this time this means our focus on understanding our children’s learning needs to spread beyond the school room and out into the human and more than human community. Our roles as caretakers needs to be reclaimed and enriched.

“The philosopher wants to empower us while the expert wants to stand over us and make us dependent on them.”
~John Holt

Understanding the fundamental needs of our human design so that we may do more than recite  abstract facts and be in competition with one another. But to fully embody and feel passionate about our learnings which leads us into a more nourished and authentic expression of life. 

In our session we will explore what this means and how this looks in your personal situation. We will focus on the biological needs of you and your child as well as family dynamics in order to create a clear understanding of what an enriched education can look like in your specific family.

These sessions are not specific to homeschoolers.

“If we value independence, if we are disturbed by the growing conformity of knowledge, of values, of attitudes, which our present system induces, then we may wish to set up conditions of learning which make for uniqueness, for self direction and for self initiated learning”
~Carl Rogers

RAISING THE NEXT GENERATIONS ( Parenting )

We find ourselves in a tumultuous time in history. To fully reclaim our role as parents has never been so vital. With so many distractions and fractures to the family unit (no matter how that looks ) I feel a heartfelt calling to support the mending and enrichment of our role as parents. I come from the understanding that we are not only parenting our children but our descendants for generations to come. The ways in which we see and fulfill that role has strong influence and a lot of potential for change.
As a Mother of four young people I also know how imperfect that can look and am fully aware of the effects the system we find ourselves in isolates us and asks so much of us.

“To the extent that we believe in a more beautiful world we can serve it”
~Charles Einstein

I believe from within the humble home is a potential for great change. The potential to parent in a way that keeps our children more whole, more deeply connected to the truth of who they are so that they may serve the world in the ways in which they are designed to serve. Through what they feel passionate about, what brings them joy, what lights them up, what makes them want to get out of bed and into the day with intention and direction.

“The opposite of play is not work-
The opposite of play in depression”
~Dr Stuart Brown

To parent in a way that feels more easeful and respectful of us all. That each one of us is worthy of respect and to have a valuable place in the world. This concept is old. And yet can be so hard to access from the place of our conditioning and influence of the current system. It can be triggering and confusing. Even scary. I offer you a space in which to share truthfully and wholeheartedly. 

“Trust children. Nothing could be more simple, or more difficult because to trust children we must first learn to trust ourselves and most of us were taught as children that we could not be trusted”
~John Holt

I offer experience in raising my four children and the skills and resources that have helped me. More details of what they are in my bio below.

 ECO MIRRORING & INTERSPECIES RLEATING SESSIONS

Interspecies relating and nature connection returns us to our sense of belonging and enables us to reconnect to the deeper truth that exists embedded within all of life.

To relate with the other than human world is a sense that we are all born with. 
Through practises of
•Deep listening
•Eco mirroring
•Somatic awareness
•Nervous System recognition
•Dream tending
•Interspecies communication
•Inner journeying
We can find the answers and directions in life we yearn for through ourselves and the world around us instead of  constantly outsourcing others for these answers that inherently live within us and the world we inhabit.
The world around us longs to work with us to unfold the next steps on our path as parents or for our own personal journey.

“We make things holy by the kind of attention we give them.”
~Martin Shaw

In our sessions online or in person we explore the ways in which we can strengthen and evolve these skills to deepen clarity within and to share with your family.

I sit listening as the wind asks its eternal questions:
What will our generation of women pass on to our daughters?
What will be our legacy
To the daughters of our great-granddaughters?
And the earth sings her response:
Offer yourself … yourself.

 POSTPARTUM HEALING & INTERGRATION EDUCATION

“If you want to know the health of the future just look at the state of the mothers”
~Rachelle Garcia Seliga

Postpartum describes the powerful window of time after all births. It holds a huge potential for healing and reset of the mothers health, the weaving together of a family and the babies wellbeing. To prepare for this time and create a community of care around you/ her is paramount, for this time stands on the shoulders of communal support. This can be designed with your comfort levels and desires in mind. Postpartum in its truest form is a cross-cultural art that has been offered to women in all cultures that remain intact.

I have experience six postpartum periods of my own and am grateful for the knowledge passed to me by Rachelle Garcia Seliga of Innate Traditions and Denise Love of Life Options. I have also attended families at birth as a birth doula.

I now offer postpartum education. I offer an understanding of the dynamics of the pillars that this vital time stands upon to empower you to create a plan that is sustainable and regenerative to you and your family. Something that is long-lasting and extends beyond a doula or a meal train.

I offer understanding around the biological blueprint of babies and the needs they have to unfold in a way that meets their biological needs. This includes breastfeeding, sleep, in arms period, communal support, healing, the dynamics of the nervous system, co-regulation and any other explorations you may wish to look into.

ABOUT ERICA

I am a  mother rich in experience and research with a fire in my knowing that we are all so much more than we are told through our conventional parenting and educational narrative. The thread we hold within our selves is an essential part of the thriving  tapestry of life. 

This path has lead me to explore many things I never imagined I would. As I’ve wound my way along the unfolding trails of my childrens unique lives  and those who attend our Luminous Youth programs I’ve explored, trained in and experienced:
