Bridging spirituality, nervous system regulation & sacred feminine healing through creativity, travel and zen practices
Welcome to my tribe

Sacred Cartographer
As a cultural anthropologist and healer, my work bridges ancient feminine wisdom with contemporary practices of energy, movement, and embodied presence. My path weaves together as a Reiki Master three decades of study in the Usui Reiki lineage (10th generation, 7th from Iris Ishikuro, who pioneered non-touch Reiki), biofeedback and aura scanning. Along with sacred movement through Cecchetti Russian ballet and Tai Chi.
These disciplines have taught me that self-love is a living energy. Cultivated through awareness, breath, and grace moving through the body.
Through my lifelong study of archaeology and anthropology, I’ve explored the symbology of the Divine Feminine — from Kuan Yin to the Sacred Madonna, from Earth Mother to Kali—and how these archetypes have guided human consciousness for millennia. Their stories remind us that love, in its most radical form, is the remembrance of our wholeness.
For more than thirty years, I’ve guided others through art, ritual, and healing to awaken this truth. My work has been exhibited at the Smithsonian Institution and MoMA, and through my online studio school, Art Mythos, I’ve helped thousands reconnect with their inner landscape and the ancient wisdom that lives within their creative expression.
My journey culminated in a sacred invitation to return home to myself, to honor my body as temple, and to remember that love is not something I earn, but something I am.

Journey through the cities along the ancient routes of story and trade…the great
Silk Road
For centuries, the Silk Roads were not only routes of trade but of transformation. Along these pathways, textiles, spices, and ceramics traveled beside philosophies, symbols, and stories that shaped civilizations.
In 2026, I invite you to join me as we follow these ancient arteries of culture. These immersive travel experiences are for those who wish to see the world through a deeper lens, to engage the senses and imagination, and to stand at the crossroads where art, history, and humanity meet.

Sacred Pause Journey…
The Sacred Pause is the intentional act of stopping before you react, decide, or move forward. In this pause, you create a moment of spaciousness — a breath, a reset — that shifts you out of autopilot and into awareness. Instead of being pulled by habit or impulse, you return to presence.
This practice is deeply connected to nervous system regulation. Through slowing down, the body finds its way out of fight-or-flight patterns and into a calmer, more grounded state. The pause becomes a doorway into balance — where breath, stillness, and gentle attention reset the rhythm of both body and mind.
Creative, spiritual, and Zen practices offer powerful ways to deepen the Sacred Pause. Whether it’s mindful breathing, meditation, or a walk in nature, these moments cultivate resilience and clarity. For many, the art journal becomes an outlet for this reflection — a private space where thoughts, images, and emotions can be released and transformed into meaning.
Even a few seconds of pausing can open a path toward clarity, compassion, and alignment. It is not about doing nothing — it is about choosing the most essential thing: coming back to yourself.

Robynisms - Substack
As an artist and energy worker, I've developed my own approaches to self-regulation and inner harmony. I'm not here as an expert telling you what to do, I'm simply sharing what works for me. My background in cultural anthropology has given me a unique lens through which I view our collective experiences, and my art is how I process and express these insights.
I invite you to join me as I share these Robynisms. Take what resonates with you and leave the rest. In a world that often feels overwhelming, I've found creating and contemplating these pieces brings me peace, perhaps they'll offer you a moment of reflection too. This is my journey, and I'm happy to have you along for the ride.
