INITIATION INTO THE BODY AS LIVING SCRIPTURE

Altar Body

30 Days · 15 Devotions · 4Live Circles

Touch. Sensation. Listening. Devotion.

A practice of becoming reachable to yourself again

* The journey begins October 13th *

THE DOORWAY

You have spent most of your life trying to understand yourself from the neck up.

You can know your patterns, your attachment style, your trauma language and still feel stuck, detached, numb. 

 

But do you know what is happening inside your body when she braces, hardens, quiets or pulls away.

There comes a point where more information does not create deeper intimacy.

 

Contact does.

 

ALTAR BODY™ is where you begin to recognize the difference between tension and protection, desire and performance, what you genuinely want and what you have learned to override.

Your body is a sacred vessel, a temple and holy ground

FROM THE WOMEN WHO SAT AT THEIR ALTAR

From the woman who is just beginning...

I am new to this world. Most of my life as a woman was spent working, drinking, and just medicating my pain away. I wasn't into "rituals" and I'm not someone who knows how to talk to my womb or feminine energy, but Monica has a way of making this work feel very human.  I started noticing things I had never paid attention to before.  How quickly I tense when someone asks something of me, how often I say yes before even checking if I want to, even the way I hold my breath or how much I am sucking in/bracing throughout my day to day.  It sounds small written down, but the practice of 'noticing' she shares in ALTAR BODY really opened up my eyes to just how much I battle my body rather than see it as beloved. ” - Katy

The body has a language

Most women were taught how to improve the body. Very few were taught how to be in relationship with it.

01.   LISTENING HANDS

Touch without immediately trying to fix, release, heal or change what you find.

04.   BOUNDARY + DESIRE

Feel the embodied difference between yes, no, maybe, not yet, more, enough and I don’t know.

02.    LANGUAGE OF TISSUE

Begin to notice bracing, softening, numbness, warmth, resistance, wanting and subtle response.

05.   TOUCH AS DEVOTION

Create a relationship with your body that is neither corrective nor transactional.

03.      SENSATION BEFORE STORY

Meet what is present before the mind rushes in to explain, label or make meaning of it.

06.  PLEASURE WITHOUT SHAME

Let sensation exist without the shame , guilt or performance. Learn to let go of needing it to become sexual, impressive, productive or profound.

The tools are right at your fingertips. No performance. Just contact

This is right for you if......​

01

You have done years of inner work but still feel strangely disconnected from your physical body.

02

You care beautifully for everyone else, yet rarely offer that quality of attention to yourself.

03

You live predominantly in thought and want a more instinctive relationship with sensation.

04

You notice yourself overriding discomfort, desire, exhaustion or boundaries before you even realize it.

05

You want sensuality without performing an exaggerated version of “feminine energy.”

06

You know there is a deeper relationship with yourself waiting to be touched.
