I Am Ness

I work for collective remembrance, liberation and life – the restoration of bodies, hearts, minds, communities, watersheds, territories, nations, and the true sovereignty of each. This website is an intersection of my art and service, where passion and purpose meet to offer pathways of healing, transformation, and liberation for others. All resources and offerings you may find here align themselves with the incredible self-healing power of Nature & Spirit.

From its Indo-European roots, the word healing means to become whole. Whether that applies to a watershed or a family, to a human body or the soil, the wholeness of both inner & outer ecosystems cannot be separated from the integrity of the relationships that hold us together in a particular weaving, place or body. Life is profoundly resilient and intelligent, and we are that; our bodies and spirits know their way to wholeness just as the water knows its way from mountain springs to rivers’ ends, and back again.

In order to return to the true richness of relationship that is our birthright as human beings, we must be willing to unlearn the dissociative, hyper-individualistic modern paradigms that contribute to social fragmentation, isolation, and alienation from self and others. We remember and uncover nature’s self-healing power within ourselves so as to reclaim our sovereignty as individuals, communities, and cells of a greater living body. Aligning ourselves to the laws and principles of Nature allows us to re-enter into direct participation and relationship to Life and turn crises to gifts.

I am here to help you free yourself and others,
to break your attachments to comfort, convenience, and quick fixes,
to get back to the real sources of nourishment on all levels,
to embrace transformation and soul purpose,
to cultivate your contribution to Life as a healthy cell,
to live joyfully and to be well.

My approach is integral, holistic, lifestyle- and relationship-oriented. Vitality and balance are cultivated through balance within all of our bodies (physical, mental, emotional, energetic) and with care for all our relations. That includes our relationships to ourselves & each other, to our food, soil, cultures, lineages, and the stories that hold us (hostage, in some cases).
Through a blend of Indigenous & Western science, holistic nutrition and regenerative detoxification, plant ally-ship, dialogue, and prayer, I create containers and bridges for deep and sustainable transformation.


Monthly Full Moon Fasting & Prayer

4-day guided container

A free / donation-based, 4-day container offering a gentle but powerful reset of body, mind, and spirit.

Flexible participation — all bodies, all capacities and levels of experience are welcome. Go deep with water for all four days, or take a gentler approach with fewer days and supportive nourishment.

This container is meant to support building consistency and momentum towards better health, habits, and deeper alignment with our personal proposals and prayers for Life.

Move with natural cycles.
Support your body’s innate intelligence.
Return to your center.

Soul Midwifery

One of my specialties is designing containers, rituals, and gatherings for others to pass through major life thresholds with greater ease, wisdom, and connection. That may look like a personal healing journey from rupture to renewal through the art of radical self-regeneration… or it could mean the holding of yourself or a loved one who is preparing to physically depart this world. Both involve death and rebirth, a threshold that holds the potential for deep healing and profound liberation.

When we create containers to honor and facilitate these major transitions as both individuals and families/communities, we are able to metabolize grief and strengthen our relationships in a way that supports and serves the fullness and continuation of Life. In this way, individual and collective crises become gifts of grace and renewal for all… if we choose to accept the sacred invitation and rise to the occasion, that is!

Healing is not linear… it is a spiral.
A dynamic, multidimensional journey of perpetually seeking Balance and returning, again and again,
to our Center.
