From Remy

I'm an herbalist, movement artist, somatic facilitator, and the Director of Wellness at Pocketbook Hudson Hotel & Baths. Since 2013, I make herbal, written and movement-based meditations through my interdisciplinary care practice, GOODWITCH.

My research incorporates clinical and poetic herbalism, Five Element Theory, integral and kinetic anatomy, contemporary dance, Qi Gong, Tarot, Hermetic alchemy and astrology, and integrative somatics.

I’m curious about the relationship between the body and meaning, and shaping keys to help us access creative freedom and the joy of connection. Health challenges and fluctuating abilities have long shaped my focus around accessibility and interdependence. All my work is collaborative and relationally-focused, because to become "aware" of our bodies is to feel the ways in which we are connected to the world around us.
