OPENING THE SENSES

Hi, I’m Korrine, a writer, somatic movement guide, and herbalist in North Idaho. I craft intergenerational teaching stories for adults and children to support place-based learning and deepen our relationship with the natural world.

In both my indoor and outdoor somatic sessions, I focus on opening sensory channels for receptive learning. I invite people to attune to the invisible forces that shape our experience—rooting and rising, warming and cooling, expanding and contracting—so understanding arises from embodied presence. I honor that we all have our own distinct affinities, especially when it comes to plants and the elements, and I love exploring our growing curiosity about how our individual bodies—and their innate intelligence—interact with the world around us.

To support this integration outside of sessions, I blend homegrown and wild foraged herbal teas and create calming castor oil packs. These practical, time-honored tools offer a physical invitation to slow down and listen to that inherent somatic wisdom.

I believe that growing our capacity to track our inner terrain directly supports a deeper relationship with the outside environment—and that how we care for our place begins with understanding our relationship to it. As an author, I turn these insights into lyrical, sensory narratives that bridge generations, guiding listeners back into the ecology of home to explore the moving body and the living earth together.
