I encourage you to explore the practices of our ancestors, those that lived in accordance with the rhythms of nature. There is much wisdom to be found and who knows what you will discover?! For example, I learned that my Korean ancestors visited the JjimJilBang or the bathhouse as a way to honor their bodies during the seasonal changes. Communal soaks in baths is how they connected with themselves, their families, and their community. They would unwind in the soaks and saunas, release and renew with a Korean body scrub, and find nourishment in warm soups while connecting with one another. This is now one of my favorite fall time rituals; to spend a day at the Korea bathhouse with my husband so that we can slow down, decompress and rejuvenate 💖.

As I continued to dive into alternative healing and explore spiritual practices (yoga, Ayurveda and shamanism), my understanding of holistic spiraled outward. Now it includes living in right relationship with all beings, living in tune with Mother Nature (her rhythms and cycles), and living harmoniously and in balance.

Zero Balancing as a bodywork has rooted these principles in my practice. It’s simply about balance in being, functioning from the core self and living in alignment with heaven and earth.
