Welcome to our world.
We are Carl Rabke & Erin Geesaman Rabke.
Together, we are honored to steward a living body of work we call Integrative Embodiment.
We are Somatic Naturalists and Embodiment Mentors.
Between us, we have more than 50 years of experience offering somatic education, bodywork, and stewarding soulful communities.
We love to share the profound gifts of the beautiful lineages we carry with others, dedicated toward personal healing and the restoration of nature and culture.
We are madly in love with each other and with this gorgeous animate Earth.
We not only engage in this work professionally; we're grateful to say it infuses every aspect of our lives.

Ultimately, all of our work is about helping people to grow embodied presence, courageous intimacy with life, and a liberating kindness toward what is, all aimed toward the thriving well-being of all beings who live on Earth now and into the future.
We can't say it any better than Mary Oliver:
"You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves."
We believe with our whole hearts that embodiment matters deeply –
not only for our personal well-being but for the healing of our world.

The Ripened Adults we Came Here to Become
Dear friends, I’m sending warm greetings from northern New Mexico where we are visiting family, enjoying the warmth and fragrance of a morning piñon fire, gazing into spectacular big skies, admiring ginormous flocks of Sandhill cranes wheeling overhead, and reveling in the hundreds of Crows who gather in the crowns of the nearby cottonwood trees…
