As Facilitator

“Suskia harnesses the power of touch as a pathway for tracking trauma and lost feeling. She truly ​believes that when touch becomes a practice of meditation, this profoundly activates the body’s ​ability to nurture itself.

She is no stranger to the underworld of our sexual nature, the somatics of how trauma moves in ​a body, and the immense initiations that take place through menstruation.

Having studied anatomy/physiology, classical tantra, ancestral/womb cosmology; she offers ​herself as the bridge between science and the unseen.

She shapeshifts between the realms of blood, body tissue and nervous system; the realms of the ​dark womb, the bones of ancestral stories, our sexual shadows, the erotic and trauma imprinting ​through a visceral understanding that these are what bring the body into harmonious ​connection with who we innately are.

Suskia holds the intention of consciously placing herself as a gateway for others to return home ​to this essential teaching: That when a body begins to unclench itself from a lifetime of holding ​tight and descends into deep relaxation, softness and opening, we rediscover that we hold great ​medicine, wisdom, love and unbounded pleasure.”

The body is sacred ground.

I have always had a curious fascination with the human body – In both its actual form and what happens beyond what the physical eye is able to witness through our energetic systems. My personal inquiry about the nature of our existence and the intimate journey with my body has led me to work as a Mystic and share this deep innate wisdom with others who find me.

Stress, tension, overwhelm, and excess mental activity drown out our ability to truly feel. Without access to the subtle genius of our feeling body, we have a reduced ability to discern and respond accurately.

The body is not a vehicle that needs to be maintained, or disciplined so that it can simply function. Rather, it is a potent source of power, intuition, feeling, and abundant pleasure. During my sessions, I work with the highest teachings: The teachings of the wisdom of the body and practices taught by the ancients from the traditional tantric lineage of Shaiva Tantra/Kashmir Shaivism/Kaula.

This includes working with methods to completely relax the body, open the nervous system, re-awaken the senses to feeling and sensation, and enter into expanded states of consciousness. The breath and nervous system are the first places we begin, turning every cell into an ear so that we can step back into deeper wisdom and ultimate awareness. This becomes a sensual experience as our senses are the portals to heightened awareness and our sexuality is a gateway to awakening.

During our session work, I facilitate in ways that are totally intuitive and of the highest integrity, and for this reason, I don’t ever know what we will be engaging with until I am in front of your body, letting it speak. Due to the nature of this work, some sessions may be rather challenging, for everything that the body may be suppressing and what has not been felt will surely reveal itself providing you with the pathway back to yourself.

I am beyond grateful to have received such rich & extensive trainings, qualifications, & initiations:

  • Anatomy, Physiology, Nutritional Therapy, Jikiden Reiki
  • Classical Tantra – 7 years in practiced training, being initiated through the school of my life and this will be ‘in progress’ until the end of my days
  • Womb Cosmology – Mysticism and philosophy of womb ‘religion’, subconscious work, pelvic physiology
  • Womb Tending/Steaming/Massage – Studying the various medicinal aspects of herbs and tending to our bodies through somatic descent processing and bodywork
  • Nervous System Regulation (I name this Nervous System Suppleness) – Studying and teaching techniques to regulate the primal nervous system which is a fundamental aspect of working with tantric practice, remobilizing the nervous system brings back online its primal wisdom
  • Shadow Work – Entering the underworld of shadow and subconscious realms, navigating conflict consciously, and working through ancestral entanglement
  • Somatic Processing/Bodywork – Hands-on approach or guiding the body into subconscious realms, working with ‘somatic swelling’ as we journey through layers of stored tensions/pain/emotion/sensation. Restoring the body’s capacity to feel life
