Jae Gibbs | Our Living Tree

Hello, I'm Jae.

Pisces sun + rising, lunar aquarius. I am a curious dreamer, intrigued by the mystic and the places beyond our knowing.

This shows up in my optimistic leaning, reality expanding, slightly introverted, distantly present, raw love personality and a nervous system that tends towards freeze for safety, when uncomfortable moments come into view.

I am of free thinking hippy-ish parents from a mixed Caribbean and English family. As a mixed-Black bodied woman, I know the lived experience; the beauty and joy, as well as the stressors and considerations that can become a part of navigating this life. This has led me to centre the healing of race-based and patriarchal trauma, exploring and unravelling how these impressions manifest in our bodies and minds to inhibit the expression of our true nature, divine power and magic.

I honour my humanness by connecting with curiousity, nature, creativity, divinity and playfulyness. It often calls for courage and commitment, which I've found to be nurtured through community. These are the things that continue to bring me home to myself and my true nature.

I began my own personal healing and empowerment journey with Yoga back in 2002. In 2015 I trained in Ashtanga Yoga and along the way I expanded to Yin, Restorative and Non-Dual Tantra Yoga. I am a certified Somatic Focalizing Practitioner and Sound Healer with a special interest in Indigenous African Spirituality and Celtic Earth-Based Practices.
