Writings
Here, you will find a collection of my writings over the years, on Body, Soul and Depth Work.
I am currently sharing my longer, deeper writing on the Substack platform, through my publication, The Yellowing Therapist. I invite you to join me and a community of fellow seekers, there -you can simply read my posts or subscribe by email to receive them in your inbox as soon as they are published.

Dance is medicine
I’ve danced more in the last six months than I had in years.
Not because I wanted to, but because I had to.
Not because these have been the greatest, happiest months of my life, but because they have been the toughest I’ve ever lived through.
Embodied writing as a gateway to Self
I have had a writing practice since I was in elementary school.
During my undergraduate years in university, when I had ample free time, I must have filled about 30 journals, all of which I still keep in my home in Greece. I wrote *a lot*.
And then…life got busy. I kept writing, but found it progressively harder to prioritise it.
Who are you becoming?
An invitation to reflect on the identities, roles and patterns that you are personally releasing, under the influence of the eclipse, and to intuit what part of yourself life is calling to be claimed, embodied, stepped into.
Shedding the layers of the false self
In Jungian psychology, we call it persona. In my somatic therapy tradition of SomaSoul, we call it role. In Alchemical Spirituality, we speak about the masks we wear to hide our essence.
Different terms, with slightly different meanings, dancing around the same core theme; that of authenticity and what prevents us from truly embodying it.
Profound loss and identity release
2022 turned out to be a ‘tower year’ for me; a year of profound loss and cataclysmic change, very different than what I had envisioned, which stripped away so many of the layers (roles, identities, coping strategies…) that had been previously standing between myself and the world.
I’m still in the early days of an experience I will be processing for a very long time, but one thing has become very clear:
Profound loss breaks us. And it can often, also, break us open.
