Ancient Technology. Restorative Art.
Embodied Storytelling.
Macramé & Material Remembrance™
Boho & Knots™ is your go to place for hands-on and land-based [w]holistic wellness, creative expansion, and restorative continuity.
We recognize macramé as an evolved contemporary practice of ancient hand-knotting and finger-weaving technologies.
While we utilize the name "macramé" for accessibility in today’s wellness and art landscapes here in Canada, our work is dedicated to researching and reclaiming the deeper, cultural and
land-based origins of these traditions.
Our mission is to provide an accessible medium and pathway to bridge sensory, social, and intergenerational gaps, fostering a more integrated sense of belonging that is held, carried,
and refined by each of us through embodied knowing.
All our work is grounded in our Material Remembrance™ modality which can viewed by clicking the button below.
Contextual Clarity
While our work is guided by intergenerational teachings on the healing power of hand-knots and finger weaving—often referred to as 'medicine' in our cultural traditions—Boho & Knots™ provides restorative modalities and is not a
provider of clinical medicine or
allopathic treatments

The Gateway:
Macramé and the Sensory System
In our practice, the hand-knot is more than a design element;
it is a sensory tool.
The rhythmic, tactile nature of working with fiber acts as a gateway to the nervous system, offering a unique pathway for:
Sensory Integration
Regulating the "felt sense" through repetitive, rhythmic movement.
Cognitive Grounding: Creating a focused "quiet space" that reduces stress and supports neuro-wellness.
Embodied Storytelling: Moving from the "thinking mind" to the "doing hands," allowing newly and forgotten personal and intergenerational narratives to emerge through touch.
Restorative Connection
Using texture as a bridge to reach wellness goals that traditional,
text-heavy frameworks may overlook.
Our work aims to
Defy the Ordinary by using the art, not as a craft,
but as a restorative
practice that fosters
sensory integration,
cultural continuity, and creative expansion.

Our Research Framework
My practice is grounded in an original methodology called Material Genealogy™.
This framework utilizes Hand-knots and Fiber as a Primary Source to investigate historical silences and intergenerational continuity.
This research ensures that our wellness offerings are not only beautiful but also rooted in the recovery of
land-based ways of knowing. While my findings remain proprietary to ensure ethical containment, I invite you to explore the depth of this work through my academic and community-led research.
