Ep. 75 Shibari Isn’t the Healer - You Are

Shibari isn’t therapy.And it isn’t magic.But when held with presence, intention, and emotional intelligence, it can become a powerful doorway into self-awareness and transformation.In this conversation with shibari artist and somatic intimacy guide Kati Bird, we explore the intersection of shibari, healing, and emotional attunement.We talk about:• why technique alone is not enough• what most people misunderstand about healing• the role of trauma awareness and emotional intelligence• and why the most powerful tools often come from outside the ropeThis is a conversation about responsibility, curiosity, and the courage to feel.Meet Kati BirdA Shibari Goddess, Spiritual Seeker, and Healer who creates safe spaces where the body and soul can communicate. Kati is fueled by questions of what lays below the surface of the everyday human interactions, cultivating depth and meaning, discovering levels of intimacy and play, finding internal and external freedom in the world, and empowering others on the journey of healing and transcendence.https://www.shibariunravelled.com/about-katihttps://www.instagram.com/becoming_unravelled/Rina is a shibari artist, tantric bodyworker, former Dominatrix, and extreme sports athlete, learner of ancient traditions and intrepid explorer of consciousness.
