With two decades of experience as a massage therapist, I've honed my skills to a high degree, prioritizing fluidity and deliberate slowness in my movements. Instead of relying solely on mechanical techniques, I focus on engaging with the body's tissues, applying refined pressure to ensure both an enjoyable experience and optimal results for my guests.
In addition to my extensive experience, I've dedicated years to a serious and devoted meditation practice, cultivating a profound gift: the ability to immerse myself completely in Stillness, while remaining unwaveringly in somatic repose. By adhering to the principles of fluid entrainment, the touch of Stillness becomes the neutral conduit through which guides the recipient to viscerally feel its essence in a profound and grounded manner.

Through my work with Still Now, my goal is to help you and others intimately experience and understand the profound power within your body. I hope to inspire you to establish your own authentic Stillness meditation practice, as the rewards are truly divine.
Unlike mainstream approaches that focus on achieving a meditative state through deliberate thinking and conceptual instructions, somatic Stillness meditation directs awareness into the body. This practice enhances consciousness by deeply engaging the body's feelings, sensations, intuition, and felt sense. It helps us look and feel at home in our bodys.
As we slowly but surely embark on the path toward spiritual sanctification, a strong, unified, and truly righteous personality begins to take shape within us. Subsequently, the organic unfolding of how we can develop and utilize our unique gifts and talents to contribute to the well-being of our fellow mankind begins to manifest in myriad ways. This journey transcends individual growth, extending into a collective enrichment of humanity.

The pace of the industrial and digital age does not align with our natural biological rhythms, leaving us unable to know what relaxation for the body even genuinely feels like. Stillness is the non-commercial, true relaxation experience everyone's looking for, its inherant in you and attuning into it is the perfect antidote to the fast-paced internet age.
The importance and significance of somatic repose is crucial information and a neglected skill set in our society. We need to learn how to transition away from constant activity into a state of non-doing. By focusing inward on a somatic level, while engaging in a 'waiting for nothing' disposition, mental chatter effortlessly subsides, unveiling new realms of possibilities. Learning to be in Stillness is hitting the ultimate reset button and will supercharge your soul!
The experience is truly worthwhile, and should you desire, you can progress to mastering this practice independently, as the potential lies within you. Stillness is contagious to those open to experiencing it, as your body truly desires to enter this state.
Still Now.. where the art of touch merges with Stillness
The Power of Stillness
The master of all movement is Stillness. My approach to the conventional aspects of massage seamlessly integrates the dynamic interplay between motion and stillness. This results in fluid, slow, and engaging movements with an ultra-refined application of pressure. Each session then culminates into 40 minutes of Dynamic Stillness, where true healing begins.
Dynamic Stillness (theoretical I AM) is not merely the absence of movement but a deeper, non-material spiritual reality that cannot be measured or scientifically proven, only felt sensed.
(taking on faith we come to know this felt sense in us as a part of the first original personality of all creation, our Universal Father-God). Consider for a moment that our universe manifested from a Still and silent void, from which creation continues to move and manifest. A Still seed that suddenly sprouts exemplifies this occurrence. This ‘Stillness’, almost paradoxically, underlies all movement, defies logic, and serves as the backdrop for all phenomena in the universe. It remains the single constant amidst the transient nature of all observable phenomena.
The body possesses an immediate, intuitive awareness of the whole, serving as the seat of our human intuition. Through reconnecting with our core selves via this fundamental, divine intuitive awareness—the "I Am" presence—we experience true healing and transformation from God. I have come to know this presence intimately, leading to authentic enfleshment. Above all, I wish to serve you by helping you experience its power of healing and transformation for yourself.
Psalm 46:10: "Be Still and know I AM God."

The Massage Experience; In the home of your own Body
During conventional massage sessions, a gentle, silent invitation is gracefully extended at the culmination of the work. This precious moment offers an opportunity to delve into a state of complete presence, allowing the unfathomable intelligence of Stillness to come to the forefront and reveal itself when and how it sees fit, on a moment to moment basis. Here, amidst the silence, our body’s inner guide system inherently sets the stage for a profound connection with our inner Source. The final 40 minutes of a session are dedicated to nurturing this divine communion. With StillNow, you benefit from my extensive experience and ability to stay unwaveringly in somatic repose. Your body will begin to identify this State of Stillness so you can than correctly somatically practice on your own. Learning to tune into and track your own inner body sensations and "Be with It", is a MUST develop skill set.
Empowering Authentic Self-Discovery
My practice is NOT about intermediaries. Our goal is to empower you to realize an ever-deepening conscious connection to your inner source—Stillness, which, always bears repeating, deepens and evolves without end! Remaining somatically (bodily) reposed and connected is essential for genuine practice, as this allows the Stillness- spiritual non-material realm to transfigure physical material tissue patterns that no longer serve you. ( This is NOT a verbally guided meditation)
This bottom-up somatic approach to meditation highlights how conventional, top-down methods often end up being mere mental projections.
A clear sign that you are not staying truly reposed in your body is feeling "bored" during a meditation session and quickly becoming disillusioned with the practice, reducing it to a mere chore to check off your daily list. When attention permeates the body, coherence emerges, revealing and releasing physical tension and emotional and mental patterns that no longer serve us, leading to physical body change and spiritual transformation. Still Now helps your body consciously reconnect with and be transformed by its own inherent power! After 6-10 sessions, most individuals become well-acquainted with its essence, propelling them toward an authentic daily meditation practice that they eagerly pursue each day. This will enhance your communion with God.
Fluid Entrainment Principle: Still Waters Run Deep; How Still Now Works
A body of water acts as a unified whole and serves as an intermediary between the spiritual and material realm, which is why many religions recognize the sacred nature of water. Since living systems are primarily composed of water, the principles of fluid entrainment invite your body to experience Stillness when being physically touched by someone who can authentically maintain a profound state of Stillness while remaining UNWAVERINGLY in SOMATIC REPOSE! (Thats all there is to my most awesome skillset I accrued). Now due to the phenomenon of fluid resonance and entrainment, my/ the practitioner’s awareness, directed in Stillness of thought and presence, is literally reflected and conveyed to the receiver's body so they too can enter a similar state; basking in its glorious presence and unfathomable power!
My life’s work has been refining my skills and service in the art of touch and Stillness meditation. When I touch you, my ability to remain truly reposed in Stillness truely invites your body to enter a similar state. Through many years of meditation, I have developed an authentic “wait for nothing” disposition, allowing my body to wholly align with its inherent Stillness. Surrendering to Divine Will leads to a profound embodiment, marked by a distinct and palpable sensation. Every cell pulsates in harmony with the cosmic pulse, centered in Stillness at the First Source and Center of all creation. This embrace creates a conscious Whole awareness, with each cell pulsing in sync, echoing the memory of both origin and destiny. Our cosmic aspiration and ultimate destiny revolve around reaching the origin of our existence.
In the end we must all be our own meditation instructors, your body is the key and the way to God is within. Still Now simply jump-starts this process of transformation by reconnecting into your consciousness your awareness of this Stillness state, that expresses itself to us as Unconditional Love!. Euphoric bliss is Not the end goal, although a session may leave you feeling amazed. Instead, try to simply "be" with the experience, and you will find the outcome to be surprising.
For the Wholly committed to God
As you progress on your journey, Stillness will organically evolve into your default state, seamlessly weaving through both your meditation sessions and daily life. The beauty lies in the fact that Stillness is not confined to a specific time or place; you can and do carry it with you, it has always been with you from the very begining and it perpetually deepens and evolves without end. This perpetual presence of Stillness initiates a transformative process where the self-serving aspects of your ego gradually fade into the background. The focal point shifts, placing your inclination to be present and of service at the center stage of your consciousness. We have consciously arrived at the bridge connecting flesh and spirit.
Religion, while creating the drive to become increasingly more perfect, simultaneously arranges the soul for dynamic service. In this state, our Lord's favored prayer, "Create in me a clean heart, O God, that I might serve you," takes on profound significance, and its palpable feel becomes undeniable. This prayer resonates with the very essence of your journey, encapsulating the depth of commitment to inner purity and service to a higher purpose. In each moment, the journey culminates, progressively approaching ever closer towards Divine Perfection located at the First Source and Center of all creation! ( a homecoming into the heart, being fully present with our origin and ultimate destiny)
Nature’s Tranquility
In the serene embrace of Stillness lies a profound communion with the Divine, beckoning one to remember those increasingly rare encounters with nature's tranquility. Picture yourself strolling through a forest where the breeze softens, the trees stand motionless, and the songs of birds fade into silence. It's as if time itself pauses, granting you a moment of pure presence, where you feel intimately connected to the world around you, and everything feels harmoniously aligned. Perhaps you've experienced similar instances by the ocean's edge, atop a lofty mountain peak, or even in the execution of a flawless golf swing. We aim to recreate, nurture, and enhance these transcendent moments when we intentionally allocate time for authentic Stillness breaks and pauses, which, I promise you, deepen and evolve without end!!!
Qualifications
Through my complete devotion to Stillness meditation, my decades of job service in massage and bodywork, sincere and ethical prayer, and my personal friendship with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I've cultivated a profound connection to Stillness and God that transcends any formal certification. I am still so very far from perfect but this journey is progressively shaping me into a more righteous individual. I've witnessed significant improvements in my character, experiencing greater compassion, patience, and empathy towards others. Moreover, it continuously expands my consciousness, allowing me to perceive life with a broader perspective and appreciate the interconnectedness of all beings. Most importantly, it draws me closer to God, fostering a deep spiritual connection that permeates every aspect of my life. My journey has enriched my life and now allows me to somatically guide others towards inner peace and spiritual fulfillment through the practice of Stillness, free from interference.
