SOMATIC EXPERIENCING
One-on-one sessions
to balance your body and being through body awareness practices using Somatic Experiencing, restorative yoga,
gentle breathwork, meditation and mindfulness.
The ability to regulate your nervous system is a key factor in maintaining physical, mental and emotional health.​ Doing so supports you in being able to respond rather than react to life's challenges.
These sessions weave a combination of modalities to support you in regaining balance in body-mind-heart-spirit. They will support your nervous system and help you to recalibrate to a healthy and responsive way of being. They will ask you to slow down, tune in and feel into your direct experience. Such awareness and connection may seem elusive yet can be developed over time and then used to guide your inner knowing. Sessions can help you to be more embodied and present in your life and your relationships.
Depending on what is being called for sessions may include breathwork, Somatic Experiencing, restorative yoga, meditation, prayer, intention setting and ritual.
What is Somatic Experiencing?
