*I (Rachel) accept compensation on a sliding scale. It is of utmost importance to me that spiritual guidance not be an offering only for those who can afford it. As such, I meet with clients at a price point below the normal sliding scale as their situations demand. It is also essential that I keep my daily session count capped so that I can offer my best attention and energy to each client. Spiritual guidance requires hours in discernment and contemplation that extend far beyond the hour session — hours that I am joyful and grateful to spend. With these principles in mind and with humility, I invite those who are able to book their guidance sessions at this price point to do so in order to cover the costs of spiritual guidance for those who cannot afford the standard rate. I am profoundly grateful you.* ____________________________________ Somatic spiritual guidance is a synthesis of research-based somatic practices designed to fully integrate the body into spiritual growth and discernment. Those who practice somatic spiritual guidance report a clearer sense of direction and an awakened understanding of their bodies. "I had the pleasure of experiencing one of Rachel's Somatic Spiritual Guidance sessions. She led me to a deep sense of body awareness and acceptance that put my mind and ease and allowed me to connect with what my body had to say. I don't think I realized how disconnected I was from my own body, my own self, until I was in my session with her. Rachel has such a gift for helping her clients relax and let go of self-criticism. I left the session feeling much more in touch with my body and what it wanted to express to me." -Sarah R. How does it work? I (Rachel) will gently guide you through a series of prompts to center yourself comfortably in your body. I will then facilitate an open, safe dialogue between your mind and body. Depending on what has brought you to the session, you will either start with the cognitive (mental) and flow to the somatic (bodily), or vise-versa.

R. "Somatic spiritual guidance impacted me a lot. I'm not a very intuitive person when it comes to what my body needs, and I'm in my head more often than not. This session helped me bridge that gap and do what my body felt like it needed to do and not have any reservations about it." -R. Brennan "I have a tendency as part of who I am to get very wrapped up in my brain. Having someone who could help me work my discernment process through not only what's going on in my head but also through my emotions and body was really beneficial for me." -Brian W.
