Hey there!
I'm Fredereka.
Okay... I'm kind of kidding about the cold plunges. I actually love them. But here's the thing. So many of us have been sold the idea that if we want to feel better, we have to push harder and challenge ourselves first. As if healing requires hard graft. I don't buy it. This is why my work is devoted to working with the intelligence of the body. That way we see subtle shifts that lead to long-lasting sustainable change.
When we reach for the most intense thing before we develop a kind, trusting relationship with ourselves, we end up overriding our bodies instead of working with them.
That's not how nature works.
We crawl before we walk.
We walk before we run.
Foundations come first.
That’s what the Inner Smile is.
It's a simple Daoist practice that helps you to be on your side, to cultivate safety from the inside out, and reconnect with the healing intelligence already within you.
From there, everything else becomes more effective.
The Inner Smile is where my day begins, and it's where I invite you to begin yours too.
