Testimonials

I am new to this work so I was very interested and not sure what to expect. I found myself feeling where my stress was being held in the pit of my stomach or solar plexus as Ashley pointed out. During the breath work session this loosened and released. I felt very relaxed finding the soothing music pleasant to listen to and very therapeutic. I was finally able to pinpoint where my emotions were being held in my body which will be a signal I can watch for in the future .

I found myself thinking of situations that had brought me shame and releasing that shame slowly with each breath. Ashley’s guidance at the beginning was very important , so I focused on really embracing my new life I am intending and following through on my goals I have set.

I experienced a gentle light headiness and tingling in my right arm which I had been told was normal. I found this an excellent way to experience and really release some emotions that were bothersome. I also was able to feel and trust the universes signs that I have been getting and sometimes ignoring!

After the session I felt energized, relaxed and self assured. This is definitely a practice I would like to continue in my journey of self exploration and self expression!

Before working with Ashley, I was carrying so much stress from this particular season of life. I felt weighed down by unprocessed emotions and was struggling to let go of grief that had settled deep in my body. I knew I needed something different—a way to access and release what felt stuck inside me, and my current ways to processing these types of emotions wasn’t working.

From the moment I stepped into Ashley’s space, I felt held and seen. She has this incredible gift for creating an environment where you feel completely safe to be vulnerable and express whatever needs to come up. There’s something about her presence—so genuine and loving—that immediately put me at ease. I could sense her authentic care for my healing journey, not just as a practitioner, but as someone who truly understands the courage it takes to face what we’ve been carrying.

During our somatic breathwork session, Ashley encouraged me to give myself full permission to feel and express whatever arose. Her gentle guidance helped me trust the process and surrender to what my body needed to release. The way she held space felt both protective and expansive—I knew I could let my guard down completely, which in the past, has been a challenge for me to do.

What struck me most was how Ashley’s loving presence remained constant throughout the entire experience. Even in moments when emotions felt overwhelming, her genuine care shone through, reminding me that I wasn’t alone in this process. She has a beautiful way of honoring whatever comes up without judgment, creating room for authentic healing to unfold.

I left feeling lighter and more connected to myself than I had in months, with a lingering sense of peace and renewed strength to move forward. Ashley’s work is truly transformative, and her heart-centered approach makes all the difference in creating lasting change.

Ashley is my go-to person when I’m seeking deeper healing and my Somatic Breathwork session was an incredible experience. During the session I was able to release some unprocessed emotion and then experienced my most essential nature in ways that gave me new clarity, understanding, and embodiment of myself. I felt my authentic self come out of hiding in the most beautiful way. I feel connected to myself in a way that wasn’t possible before. My body is holding less tension and feels more fluid. My experience was unexpectedly profound and I’m amazed by this simple and enjoyable process. It is said that “You are the medicine,” and I believe it’s true, and Ashley has a gift for leading you to discover it. I’m so grateful.
