Maxine Iharosy

Embodiment coach and transformation guide.
For the nourishment of your vitality.

Choosing to travel the souls path is freeing, and it can be intimidating.

Hi, I’m Maxine. I know that sitting on the edge of becoming “more of who you are” can feel like everything else will crumble, or you don’t know where it begin. Or maybe you began the unraveling some time ago but like anything on the spiral path, life happens, we get redirected, and from the uncertainty a curious invitation calls you onward; who am I now?

It’s my intention to serve with reverence for the instinctual nature, humour for the uncontrollable, sincerity for the scared parts, tenderness for the grief, and fire for the power that has been waiting to be recognized.

I offer my work with a background in Somatic Experiencing®, Self-Inquiry skills, and Cyclic Wisdom from Earth Based Feminine Traditions. We work somatically, archetypally, energetically, and mentally. You can keep reading more about me here.


But I want to speak to you, not from a place of “look what I can do for you”, but from a place of I understand, and there is room for you here. We reach out for support when we feel stuck, or know we’re not quite seeing everything clearly, or know we haven’t been truly living. On one side of feeling stuck you might struggle with a lack of compassion, apathy, an existential malaise. On the other side you keep very busy, constantly available for everyone and everything, constantly ON and ready. We can feel stuck too when we’ve reached a limit to what we can receive and things are going well, but want more for ourselves. In this kind of stuck, you repeat the same thing over and over, fulfilled on paper, but also in denial of the part of you that hungers for more. I am always blown away by the wisdom that comes through when I sit with clients and we create a field together where the unconcious can be explored, desires can be named, and impulses can be followed.

The backbone of my perspective when guiding others is that you are powerful and you have it in you to create a life that feels purposeful and alive. And I am here to support the conditions needed for you to feel that.

The Nurturing Force is a guided embodiment practice for connection to the heart and womb. For $22 (can), this is an experiential practice that will light the path towards the inner Mother.

For women who want a compassion practice that arouses senses, dances with shadow, and stirs a deeper knowing.

Includes an 11 min video to introduce the nurturing force and 'motherwork'.

Suitable for beginner or advanced. Presence and connection with oneself are requirements for transformation and soul expression. We never stop needing these foundations. Compassion is about being with. Meeting yourself.

Downloadable.

For the Personal: My work is about you feeling in your body, backing your choices, feeling your fire, and expressing your truth.

For the Collective: Women who are responsible for their vitality are a healing force of nature. When we attune to truth within we bring nurturance to our communities, relationships and lineages.

As a guide, I understand that the individual and the collective are woven together. My work serves the individual woman. We go right into the individuality of your heart, your distinct wisdom, and your own flavour of creativity. In owing your individual fire you come to feel your power. With a basis in somatics and nervous system education, we dance between capacity and desire, gradually increasing the bandwidth to be present with the current of desire that runs through the body, moving you in the direction of your souls expression. We work with restoring the flow of the nurturing impulse so that your life-force is not being locked self-preservation stratedgies like codependency dynamics, upholding untruths, or playing it safe to secure belonging. Instead, the nurturing impulse, the impulse inside of you to tend to your life, gets liberated to back what would truly tend to aliveness, not just survival. My belief as a guide is that although I have tools, keen senses, and capacity to meet you in places you may struggle to meet yourself, that you are the one who holds the power. You are the one who has been calling yourself back home. You are the only one who can answer that calling. I work with brave women. I work with soft women. I work with women who are much more complex than they let on. I work with with women who have been afraid to own who they are, and are ready now.

Much of what we do together in a group or 1:1 is accessing enough internal safety that you can risk following your vitality. The big visions or small, tender, desires you have all begin with presence and connection. I look forward to meeting you and seeing what emerges.
