you are everything for everyone
for a little while, come rest and be yourself
you are the person people rely on.
you lead, teach, listen, remember, decide, anticipate, soothe, organize, solve, vision and carry, often so gracefully that you get rewarded with more to tend.
you know how to hold what needs holding, notice what others miss, love fiercely, carry beautifully, and continue long after some quiet part of you has asked to stop.
here, you can slip out of the ordinary world for a while and let yourself be tended too, with long unhurried hours for rest, conversation, healing, ceremony, the spirits, and the quiet magic that arrives when nothing is required of you.
however you arrive,
whatever you’re carrying,
warm welcome.
women arrive here:
tired of being everything for everyone.
holding the team, clients, business, family, patients, students, friendships, vision or some impossible combination of all of them.
needing to not be so capable for a while.
craving a warm space where you can rest and receive, work with the spirits, make room for mystery, and let someone else hold the space while you find your way home to yourself.

come slow down with us. ease into an evening of mystery, warmth, good food and winter magic.
warm welcome.
for more than twenty years, women have come here when they need somewhere to set down the ordinary world for a while, rest, and remember themselves.
I’m a shamanic healer, teacher and ceremonialist. most of my work happens in realms that can’t be solved by trying harder.
I work with women with demanding lives, in difficult passages, and quiet seasons when nothing is ‘wrong’ and something inside asks for attention.
we may talk until the words run dry, or work with the spirits, healing energy, divination or ceremony.
big heart hug, and warm welcome.
working with the spirits, ceremony, the power of love
help you slow down, rest, and meet yourself in the silence.
rest & receive
when you’ve carried too much
when life changes
when the ground shifts
room for mystery
when you can’t hear yourself
what comes next
when something inside is stirring
choose how you’d like to begin
you don’t have to know what kind of healing you need, or have a beautifully articulated intention.
when something is confusing, exhausted, tender or just asking for your attention, come for a private two-hour retreat with me.
we’ll make space for you in your life through conversation, shamanic healing, ceremony, divination, journeying, or silence.
if you’re looking for the particular warmth of being among women without having to perform for them and instead just marvel, come to circle.
every gathering makes room for spirit, ceremony, story, beauty, laughter, and the relief of not having to hold the whole room yourself.

‘working with anna connected me to a spiritual part of myself I was acutely missing.
she helped me find an inner wellspring of nourishment and knowing that has become the foundation of who I am as a person and a professional. she’s one of the most magical and effervescent beings you’ll ever meet.’
