About Pachacea
PRONOUNCED: "Pah-chah-SEE-ah"
THE PACHACEA NAME
Pachacea is the combination of PACHAMAMA (South American Goddess embodiment of Mother Earth) and PANACEA (Ancient Greek Goddess of Remedies and Cure-alls). Together, they mean that whatever ails you can be remedied through Mother Earth: her energy, her bounty, and a return to her ancient wisdom and the wisdom of many indigenous cultures.

The Pachacea Approach to THE WORK is based on the following assumptions:
- You are perfect just the way you are. (read that again)
- You don't need to "be fixed"; Yes, you might be working on shifting, healing, or integrating some things, but you yourself as a person, DO NOT require fixing because nothing is broken.
- Our culture perpetuates two debilitating self-concepts: SHAME (I AM wrong) & SCARCITY (I'm not enough, I don't have enough, I'm not worthy, etc.), and the only way through is to eventually find a way to LOVE, ACCEPT, and INTEGRATE ALL PARTS OF OURSELVES--especially the parts we deny, disown, try to cut off, suppress, etc.
- There's NOTHING wrong with BABY STEPS (healing is a marathon, not a sprint)
- The more PRESENT we can learn to be every single day, the healthier and happier we are.
- Trauma is PHYSIOLOGICAL and most of our current healing modalities are trying to heal a body/heart issue through the MIND or worse, only address SYMPTOMS instead of
- Trauma and shame cause fragmentation and most people walking around are pretty divorced from their bodies and the messages their bodies are constantly sending them.
- To best serve our clients, we are laser-focused on EMBODIMENT, PRESENCE, SELF-ACCEPTANCE, & SELF-LOVE.
- The best way to heal trauma is through BELONGING (first to yourself and then to others who support and truly see and hear you) and COMMUNITY.
- We are here to create a SAFE ENVIRONMENT/CONTAINER for your work and to give you insights, guidance, and (when necessary) challenges to your deep-seeded stories and patterns, but ultimately YOU ARE THE HEALER YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. We are just here to help the healer in you awaken and to help empower you to take responsibility for yourself and take control of your healing journey.
- People just need to feel safe to be themselves and to re-tune into our natural biological rhythms that our bodies evolved (e.g. natural oscillation between expansion/contraction and sympathetic/parasympathetic. While in step with those rhythms, our bodies are brilliantly and naturally self-healing.
