Closing The Bones ~ Rebozo Massage with Laurie

I can’t fully put into words how powerful Laurie’s Closing the Bones offering was.

From the moment I arrived, the space felt deeply safe, loving, and intentional. Laurie holds you in a way that makes you feel truly seen, supported, and cared for.

As a woman who has struggled with her menstrual cycle in the past, I knew there was still emotional residue sitting in my womb space. This experience allowed my body to release what it had been holding. I felt layers soften and open in a way I didn’t even realise I needed.

The day after, I felt alive — lighter, clearer, and deeply connected to myself again. It was as though emotional blocks had dissolved. I could see everything through a different lens. Being back in my body and in my energy felt almost magical.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this offering. It is deeply nurturing and truly transformative.

My closing of the bones with Laurie, was nothing short of profound. It is symbolic and tender to sit with another mother and open up your heart to the closing of chapters. It fell on the winter solstice and it felt so very meaningful. Thank you Laurie, @_thebarntemple_ for holding such beautiful space, for allowing my sensitive feminine nature to be rocked and acknowledged. It really did feel like a blessing to my Maiden self, the Mother of the present and the Crone of the future. The way Laurie holds space is extremely meaningful and heartfelt. The robozo wrapping, the gentle rocking, the music, the scents, it was truly beautiful. The photographs do not do justice what was felt and experienced. ✨️❤️‍🔥 🦴🐛🦋

I have had the pleasure of joining classes at The Barn Temple and what a beautiful space it is. Beautifully decorated so that you immediately feel at peace when you walk through the door. The sessions I have attended with Laurie have been very relaxing and I usually fall asleep during the sound healing classes. I highly recommend. Thank you Laurie.

In a society that focuses on bouncing back to our busy lives as soon as possible after the birth of our children, it felt liberating to spend this time with Laurie, being held and nurtured and given time.

The closing of the bones was such a restorative experience for me. From the moment I stepped in to the beautiful room and took in my surroundings, I had an all encompassing feeling of calm and felt safe.

Laurie’s warm and compassionate nature is very settling and I felt such comfort and at ease as she explained the origins of closing of the bones and we began. I felt re-connected to my mind and body and all the women that have gone before me as I moved through the breath work and meditation. Each part of my body was able to relax and feel weightless as Laurie massaged and wrapped me using the rebozos. The sensation of the compression was comforting and my body felt completely supported and held.

It has been a few days since I had the closing of the bones done and I still feel the effects on my mood and spirit, feeling a deep sense of calm and I feel more confident which I hadn’t expected. The opportunity to really sit with yourself, honour your body, ask how you are feeling in your heart and womb and honour yourself for all that you are and all you have done in creating life and being a mother, is just so powerful and I feel I am stepping more in to my own power since this wonderful experience.

Hey my love, what a beautiful experience I had. Something i will carry with me for the rest of my life. An experience that has given my journey into mother hood a final hello. I have woken today feeling confident, radiant and soft as a new mother following the ceremony. I want to say a massive thank you for being my anchor ❤️ so so much love
