Restorative Touch Work

Coquelicot uses restorative touch work to engage and release chronic distress, tension and shock trauma patterns in a gentle and comprehensive reeducation of the nervous and other body systems. She is multilingual, speaking the language of bones, muscles, fascia, fluids and various other tissue languages. Her work draws upon and weaves together many systems including: Biodynamic Osteopathy, Acupressure, Somatic Experiencing Bodywork, Reiki, Reflex Repatterning, Sensory Integration Work, and the therapeutic application of essential oils. Clients are fully clothed during restorative touch work.

Body-based Trauma Resolution: Coquelicot works with physical and interpersonal trauma at mental, emotional, and psychological levels– by means of co-created inquiry and guidance. Together we will find ways through touch, dialogue, body sensing and functional understanding to release flight and flight patterns in your system so that you can live with more trust, ease and pleasure. You will be supported on a journey of self-discovery to support the digestion and integration of your life experiences. You will be guided to get past your fears, through body sensing skills, towards a life that holds more trust and pleasure.

Inspirations

"I am going somewhere and that somewhere is everywhere, and it is important to be exactly on time at every instant. Because if I am not on time here, I shall never be on time anywhere."
- Satprem, By The Body Of The Earth
"The most visible creators I know are those artists whose medium is life itself. The ones who express the inexpressible -- without brush, hammer, clay or guitar. They neither paint nor sculpt -- their medium is Being. Whatever their presence touches has increased life. They see and don't have to draw. They are the artists of being alive."
- Jay Scott
"If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite."
- William Blake
"And bit by bit I was overcome by a strange impression that was almost an emotion. Did it emanate from those high walls or the sand carpeting the street? No, it was subtler than that: it was linked to something in the air, a familiar resonance, almost an odor. Then I closed my eyes; feeling the small warm hand in mine, and searched, prodded that wall of memory, groping my way through an obscure fragrance peopled by presences; it was there, just on the other side; I could feel it, smell it still--a rare emotion which I had known many times in many different lands."
- Satprem, By the Body of the Earth
"With great love, sensitivity, and a profound capacity to elicit and model intimacy, Coquelicot provides a safe and conscious environment for me to explore and practice open-hearted communion."
- U.F., artist
"By finding pathways to 'rewrite the body script,' we can -- with kindness, mindfulness, perseverance, and patience -- learn to embrace and embody more of our potential as human beings."

"The clear bead at the center changes everything. There are no edges to my loving now."
- Rumi
"The direct route is the sum of a million indirections."
- Satprem, By The Body Of The Earth
"I will not live an unfulfilled life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which came to me as seed goes to the next as blossom, and that which came to me as blosson goes on as fruit."
- Dawna Markova, The Open Mind
"It is possible I am pushing through solid rock, as the ore lies alone. I am such a long way in. I can see no way through and no space. Everything is close to my face, and everything close to my face is stone. I don't have much knowledge yet in grief, so this darkness makes me feel small. You be the master. Make yourself fierce, break in. Then your great transforming will happen to me, and my great grief cry will happen to you."
- R.M. Rilke
"I enormously appreciate your integrity. I benefit a lot from the importance you place on slowing down, or walking (experience) in small steps/increments, and on identifying the most subtle beginnings of experience, sensation, and emotional reaction."
- M.S., obstetrical nurse in San Francisco
"But you are something very old.... Listen, my child, destiny is not an enemy, there are no 'enemies' in the world. Everything is here to help us find the way. There is no 'misfortune,' everything leads us exactly where we must go, by all the necessary detours. When one opens one's heart, every moment is a miracle...."
- Satprem, By the Body of the Earth
"All sickness is homesickness."
- Rumi
Coquelicot teaches didactically, experientially and by example. She brings to each session a lifetime's worth of tools, exercises and practices that I use at home to further my own development. Her genius combines intuition, sensing and a comprehensive knowledge of human emotional and biological development. What I've learned from her has not only given me a deeper understanding of my own patterns, dynamics and behaviors, it's also enhanced my understanding of others. I am a far more compassionate person thanks Coquelicot. In fact to the degree that I am a more evolved being in any regard, Coquelicot was instrumental in my transformation.
