Chris Kendra WA State LMT # MA 60268905 She/Her pronouns I have been practicing massage therapy for over 14 years in both health clinic and spa settings, as well as private practice. I have also researched and trained in many other healing methods, including structural integration & myofascial release, shamanic techniques, somatic approaches to working with trauma, Hawaiin Lomi Lomi healing, herbalism, meditation & breathwork, and death doula/midwifery work. I hold a 200-hour yoga teacher certification, and my undergraduate studies at Gettysburg College focused on philosophy, education, psychology, and literature. My search for bodywork and healing methods that truly provide long-lasting, transformative results for my clients led me to Kelly Clancy and Tensegrity Medicine in 2016. Along with ceremony and ritual work, this is the most profound method I have discovered. I have since completed 2 in-depth Tensegrity Medicine mentorships and numerous short courses. Tensegrity Medicine brings together objective assessment of whole body patterns and relationship of body parts, gentle touch and movement therapy techniques that target the areas of greatest restriction for systems-wide impact, compassionate dialogue that explores connections between body, emotions, beliefs, and perceptions, and a customized home program to integrate the results. This is a unique and uniquely effective modality. My own life and health have been dramatically transformed by receiving and practicing Tensegrity Medicine, and I am honored and excited to share and guide this work along your healing journey as you nourish, restore, and illuminate your path. https://www.lanternhealing.com/programs daily 0.75 2021-05-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1597176656465-AS04QUP6DHSPNWPR3K8Q/image-asset.jpeg Series Descriptions https://www.lanternhealing.com/ceremony-ritual daily 0.75 2022-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606a91cae2ad2746469b5ba3/0eccd490-0693-4ab2-8e4f-05ce877f1bbf/Chris+Kendra-100.jpg Ceremony & Ritual Through this potent framework, we can discover what matters most to you and shift blocks and burdens that stand in the way of experiencing the present moment in its fullest. My approach to this work is co-creative, playful, and compassionate. There is no one size fits all - every program is informed by what is most meaningful to you. I will guide the arc of the program according to the themes that we explore together throughout the process of creating and engaging in the ceremony or ritual. No prior experience, knowledge, or particular spiritual belief system is needed, just a curious, open heart! You can choose to create ceremony/ritual around a theme, challenge, or trauma you are experiencing. These programs are also perfect for support in creating your own regular sacred practices and self-care (such as meditation, altar tending, celebrating seasonal Celtic holidays, lunar spellwork, etc.) These programs can also be powerful adjunct therapy for Western diagnoses of illness/injury/pain/mental health challenges. Ceremony and Ritual Programs can be offered on-line, in office, outdoors, or at another location depending on what we decide works best. Off-site locations are generally limited to Seattle. I invite you to share your story with me and tell me more about your interest in Ceremony and Ritual programs. I use an application process to ensure that we are a good fit to work together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606a91cae2ad2746469b5ba3/1623804981039-8I03MU6RII73CSAE1W4L/15.jpg Ceremony & Ritual - My approach is informed by 15+ combined years of academic studies and professional training, as well as my own lived experience and regular practices. Some of the frameworks I draw upon when guiding ceremony and ritual include: Tensegrity Medicine & Internal Family Systems Shamanic techniques, shadow work, & animism Celtic Studies Mysticism & Tarot symbolism Modern witchcraft & spellwork Myths, fairy/folk tales, & archetypes The 8 limbs of yoga Breathwork, meditation, visualization, & journeywork techniques Death doula/midwifery work Herbalism & plant lore Embodied, trauma-informed care & healing-centered engagement approaches Abolition, Healing & Transformative Justice movement work Literature, writing, & storytelling Anti-racist, feminist, LGBTQIA2+ scholarship & social justice work Received wisdom from forming my own relationships to land, water, mountains, sky, sacred sites, & the non-human inhabitants of the natural world. I am grateful to all my teachers, including my ancestors and spirit guides, the earth and all her creations, Kelly Clancy, Linda L. Fitch, Jeana Iwalani Naluai and her lineage of Kumus, The Four Winds Society, Sharon Blackie, and so many more. https://www.lanternhealing.com/ceremony-1 daily 0.75 2021-05-16 https://www.lanternhealing.com/tensegrity daily 0.75 2022-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606a91cae2ad2746469b5ba3/1621136480649-M2WBGEF08KC288UKRFYB/twilight-2291361_1280.jpg Tensegrity Medicine - “Chris is one of the most talented bodyworkers and ceremonialists I have ever worked with.
