my name is julz bolinayen. i descend from a lineage of seers, diviners, land stewards, weavers, herbalists, and energyworkers. my ancestors are ilokano from the island of northern luzon, in the archipelago now colonially known as the philippines. though i've been migratory throughout my life, always near volcanoes and the sea, the ocean is home for me wherever i go. i am a queer brown femme, trans/non-binary creative and folk healer. i am also a spoonie, neurodivergent, partially deaf/hard-of-hearing and slowly learning ASL. i have always been a highly sensorial person and humbly pride myself in being incredibly compassionate, intuitive and caring.

i have been offering my gifts since 2011. i have guided, felt and seen the powerful impact of ancestral healing traditions on others’ bodies and souls—and my own. as a survivor of CSA and DV, i’ve experienced profound healing through ceremony, such as ritual scarification, trauma-informed tattooing, non-western traditional bodywork, and grief ritual. my elders, teachers and mentors have performed healing rituals that have impacted how i provide services to my clients. these transformative experiences inspire me to move with integrity and provide high quality care for my community.

my purpose is to support you in living your most authentic life. in order to do so, i work with various mediums rooted in ancestral healing practices to support you in unblocking, transformation, and empowerment. through healing intergenerational trauma, releasing grief, and reclaiming our bodies, it is my belief we will all experience joy, harmonious holistic health, and ultimately freedom—with the grace and guidance of Lakapati, our trans/third gender deity of the philippines.
