What we’re about
Welcome to those of you seeking change, healing, and transformation or maybe just more aliveness and joy. This virtual group is for people interested in personal or professional transformation through connecting with the wisdom of the body. The word Soma means body and in Somatics, we view breakthrough change as happening not when one gains enough new insights and knowledge about an issue or pattern but rather when one engages in new practices that transform who we are at the physical level as well.
This group will include dialogue, discussion, and mainly practices that help you connect with what matters most to you, build your relationship with your body, and increase resilience for managing life stressors. I am a Somatic Coach and my work is especially affirming of LGBTQ+ folks, people experience chronic illness and pain, and people in recovery, though I welcome all people interested in transformation through the body.
