  • Part Two of Presence Practice in Times of Chaos
    Feb 5 2026

    If this episode is resonating with you, send us a message - we’d love to hear from you 🤍

    Welcome to Light Work — a soft place to land in what could otherwise be a hard moment.

    We’re two sisters walking the path of healing together. In this space, we share honest conversations about the practices that have helped us reconnect with presence and a deeper sense of meaning in our daily lives.

    This episode is the second part of our multi-part series on healing modalities, beginning with something beautifully simple and profoundly accessible: meditation — or presence practice, if structure isn’t your thing.

    Today we’re continuing our conversation about what meditation can look like in real life, how it can be easily accessed in ordinary moments that don’t take you away or require you to plan or “make time” for it.

    We touch on why embodied presence practice touches deeply into the feminine (not female, but feminine) and why structured, hierarchical, masculine (not male, but masculine) practices like silent, seated meditation often feel so removed from daily life and unachievable.

    Our aim is to gently bring presence practice back to where it lives — in the breath, the body, the senses, and the everyday moments we’re already moving through.

    Whether you’re drawn to noticing your breath, feeling the aliveness within your body, spending time in nature or finding presence while washing your hands or eating, we hope this conversation encourages you to explore what feels natural and kind for you.

    You don’t need to be a seeker, a healer, or anything in particular to be here — just curious, open, or tiring under the weight of what feels like unending chaos.

    As always, love, light & good night 🤍

  • Toolkit: Drumming Meditation
    Jan 26 2026

    If this episode is resonating with you, send us a message - we’d love to hear from you 🤍

    Welcome to Light Work — a soft place to land in what might otherwise be a hard day.

    We wanted to offer up a short, unguided drumming meditation as another way to rest the thinking mind and allow the body and nervous system to lead.

    The buffalo drum has deep roots in Indigenous and shamanic traditions across many cultures. This offering is shared with respect for those lineages, without claim to title or ancestry, and with gratitude for the wisdom carried through rhythm, frequency, and vibration.

    The drum is played at a rhythm of 3–4 beats per second, a tempo that can gently guide the brain into a theta state. This is a slower, dreamlike brainwave often associated with deep relaxation, meditation, creativity, and inner imagery. Through a natural process called entrainment, your nervous system will begin to match the drum’s rhythm, allowing your body to relax and your mind to loosen its grip.

    This kind of meditation practice can be especially supportive for those who find guided meditation distracting or effortful. Rather than following words or instructions, the vibration of the drum offers a direct, somatic invitation. It’s a call to the most ancient, instinctive parts of ourselves that remember how to rest and recalibrate.

    You don’t need to visualise, journey, or “do” anything. Simply allow the sound to move through you - it might feel grounded and heavy, spacious, emotional, or simply calming. All responses are right.

    We invite you to meet this practice with curiosity rather than judgement, and to return to it whenever you’re seeking a different way to unwind, release, and gently reset.

    We recommend listening while sitting or lying down in a safe, comfortable space. This practice is not intended to be used while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention.

    After listening, move slowly and give yourself a little time to re-enter your day. Make as much space as possible for hydration and good nutrition to support your body.

    Love, light & good night 🤍

  • Toolkit: Embodied Presence Practice
    Jan 26 2026

    If this episode is resonating with you, send us a message - we’d love to hear from you 🤍

    Welcome to Light Work — a soft place to land in what might otherwise be a hard day.

    We wanted to offer up a short embodied presence practice for moments that feel heavy, loud, or disconnected. Making time in your day to pause & connect back in is a beautiful way to be present.

    In this practice, we focus on the body and the breath first and then notice the subtle aliveness that’s always present in us beneath thought, tension, and distraction.

    Whether you’re new to mindfulness, a returning practitioner, or just in need of a moment of steadiness, this practice is here to meet you.

    You don’t need to feel calm, be spiritual, or have any intention other than a willingness to pause and listen inward.

    Come back whenever you need space, softness, or a reminder that presence is always available.

    After listening, move slowly and give yourself a little time to re-enter your day. Make as much space as possible for hydration and good nutrition to support your body.

    Love, light & good night 🤍
