Somatic Coaching
Having the opportunity to walk through this life, reaching high levels of self-fulfillment and health, is a true gift.
“By listening to and attending to the signals of our body, we unlock the power of internal healing and restore our sense of security and vitality”
Peter Levine
What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic practice is a holistic accompaniment approach that focuses on the connection between the body and mind, using various techniques and body-based tools to help process and release complex emotions and tensions that have accumulated in the body over time.
The premise of somatic practice is that the body and mind are deeply interconnected. The body is affected by psychological and emotional experiences, and vice versa.
Emotional shock is stored in the body, in our nervous system, even if our conscious mind cannot recall it. These difficult experiences can manifest in various ways, such as, for example:
- Muscle tension and pain
- Digestive system dysfunctions
- Weakened immune system
- Insomnia
- Addictive behaviors (shopping, compulsive eating, alcohol, etc.)
- Anxiety
- Sadness
- Panic attacks
What Can You Expect from Somatic Coaching?
By following the recommendations, you can expect the following benefits, among others:
- You’ll release physical tensions accumulated over time and reduce chronic stress.
- Somatic Practice facilitates the processing and release of dense emotions stored in the body. This, in turn, could result in a reduction of symptoms related to PTSD and Complex PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder).
- Somatic Practice promotes greater body awareness and a stronger sense of connection between body and mind.
- Somatic Practice will help you release repressed and unprocessed emotions, which will increase your emotional (and sometimes physical) well-being.
- You’ll learn to listen and respond appropriately to the signals your body sends you, which will also help you develop your self-care and self-compassion skills.
