Ep 37 Healing from Migraine Through Mindful Creativity with Courtney LaCaria

Welcome back, dear listeners. In this episode, my heart was bursting with joy to have this sweet reunion with a former coaching client!   Courtney LaCaria is the farmer and fiber artist behind the company, Form and Function Creative. She lives with her family on an alpaca farm that focuses on regenerative practices and provides the fleece that she spins into yarn and weaves into fiber goodies. Finding inspiration in nature and stories, Courtney's work reflects her love for art as both product and practice, creating fiber art that embodies the elements of joy, connection, and gratitude. When she is not making art, she's in the kitchen baking or outside in the garden.   I met Courtney when she joined my journaling course, Writing to Release Chronic Pain, and we subsequently did some coaching together. She had already dipped her toes into mind-body medicine world, but she was still struggling with frequent and persistent migraine headaches at the time. It’s been such a heart-warming experience to see her journey unfold into greater ease, self-trust, and a blossoming creative practice and business. When I get to do this kind of work with clients and students, yes it’s about educating people on theories and practices of mind-body healing, but at the core, it’s really about developing relationship and care and connection — both between practitioner and client, and between the various parts of ourselves. And I think that’s really going to come through as you listen to this conversation.     You can find Courtney at: Website: https://www.formandfunctioncreative.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/formandfunctioncreative   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: [email protected] Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠
