Welcome back to The Feminine Profiles Podcast! I’m very excited to share my conversation with Kristen Caissie of Moon Canyon Healing. Kristen is an herbalist and somatic practitioner who weaves these modalities together into a holistic Earth-centered healing practice. I hope you enjoy! -Brooke

Today, we touch on:

• honoring the call to connect more deeply to the earth, to her own healing cycles, and to the plants — and the career pivot that was required to make this change
• the decision to enroll in herbalism school and a somatic therapy program 
• overcoming wounding in order to feel safe to share her work — building trust and granting herself permission for her own channel and medicine to come forth
• the transformations that unfolded from the support of a community — the potency of group work
• how trusting her voice is now second-nature—the trust in her inner voice and channel is so enforced but there are still places in her body where old belief systems live
• learning both from the direct relationship and experience with the plants but also through the textbooks — the wisdom is where the body, heart, and mind meet
• her deepest prayer for her clients is that we get to be in our own expression—each person carries a specific medicine for the earth
• ‘fixing’ vs. healing
• the energetics of Spring
