River
Intimacy coach
I identify as an Erotic Mystic. I’m home with plants, my first and most important Teachers, and seek sensual nature connection even in the dandelion pushing through concrete. With pleasure as my guiding principle, I listen to the birds & animals and honour the ancestors of my own line and of the Land I’m standing on.
My birth self, Jessica McLaughlin, is analytical, scientific and adores pattern recognition. To counterbalance this innate seriousness, I nurture my inner Divine Clown and hold frivolity as sacred. I’m a lifelong psychonaut and pursuer of mystical states in many forms; ask me about it?
I’m neurospicy, a TBI survivor, and practise somatic self-regulation and breathwork to manage chronic pain. I’ve studied religions, politics and health, been a Registered Nurse, a teacher, a treeplanter and a solo homeschool parent.
I am a collection of all I have experienced and all I ever will. Blessed be.
