Happy 4th Anniversary to Coriander Living Collective (CLC)!

To our clients, friends, family, and colleagues, thank you for your continued support and trust.
The Meaning Behind Coriander Living Collective’s Name!
I’ve had two people ask me over the last week what’s the meaning behind my company’s name, Coriander Living Collective so I thought I would share!
9 Wellness Benefits of Open Floor Movement Practice!
Research supports the benefits of exercise, community connection, spirituality, and mindfulness practices. You could go for a run, go to church, grab a coffee with a friend, and then sit in meditation. OR you could try an Open Floor class which combines all these benefits into one experience!
As humans, we have been moving together for ions. Our bodies respond to connection, music, movement, and nature.
Join me for Open Floor Moving Meditation + Patio Wine Socials at Forestville Vines on Sunday, June 2, 2024 and July 7, 2024 from 11am-1pm. EVERYbody is welcome! Please reach out to Coriander Living Collective with questions. Dance-on!
Release Stress and Claim Joy!
Stress is a common occurrence for many of us! The problem with stress is when it is chronic, overwhelming, or when we don’t have good stress management tools.
The mindfulness, resource-based movement practice of Open Floor International is one of the best ways, I know to release stress and allow the body to self-regulate.
The Open Floor Meditation Cycle at Forestville Vines in May, June, and July 2024!
I will be teaching different modifications of the OF Mediation Cycle on the first Sundays from 11am-1pm starting May 5, 2024 and continuing on June 2, 2024 and July 7, 2024 at Forestville Vines outside of River Falls, WI. Forestville Vines is in and on the grounds of an old school house from 1897. There is a special magic to the land. We will be practicing outside, barefeet to the earth, and big sky above. Come join us!

Doorways to the Soul
Talking about soul and spirit touches on some of the great existential questions of life! A wonderful place to explore and investigate what soul and spirit mean to you is through your body with movement, on a dance floor! All classes over the next several months will be moving with SPIRIT and SOUL. Come checkout a SOUL MOVES class. Come investigate these on the dance floor, Sunday, February 25, 2024!
The Core Movement Resource of Dissolve
An embodied sense of dissolve allows us to move through life with ease. Without dissolve we remain stuck, reluctant, holding onto the past, or unable to connect with our soul and spirit.

The Holiday PAUSE: Joy, Cheer, Stress, Grief, and Loneliness
The holidays can get busy, running from events to stores to school concerts, they can bring cheer and joy, and they can bring stress, grief, and loneliness.
One of the best ways that I have found to handle big emotions is the resource-based conscious movement practice of Open Floor International. It provides connection, support, and allows your body to regulate. PAUSE is one of Open Floor International’s core movement resources.

HUNGER FOR SPIRIT
Our hunger for SPIRIT is the “holy longing” we feel to connect beyond what we can see, to be held, and guided as we move through life. To seek “refuge” in the great mystery. We work on dissolving our identities and the labels we carry to sense our pure essence.
