Trusting the wisdom of your body to thrive
A traumatic event or overwhelming period in your life can have a big impact on how you relate to yourself and others.
Trauma happens to you, but it often feels like something is wrong with you.
Why is it so hard to be fully present, to have energy or to feel well and be yourself?
Because trauma keeps you hostage in the overwhelm of the past and worried about the future.
The good news is that you can change this in the present moment with the help of somatic (body-based) practices.
More than talking
Talking about a traumatic event or an overwhelming period in your life can be very helpful. But research shows that talking about it is often not enough to resolve prolonged stress or trauma.
Your body needs a voice and a listening space too. It is your body that holds your experiences, and your body can also provide the support you need to be able to let go.
EVIDENCE BASED
There is more and more evidence that somatic practices are helpful to feel, release and integrate overwhelming experiences in the present moment.
Trauma sensitive yoga, somatic experiencing and iRest meditation are evidence based practices that offer you ways to safely be with what needs to be felt, acknowledged, completed and understood.
PROMOTING GROWTH
People who did this work report feeling more present, alive and energetic, more able to deal with the challenges of life and more connected to themselves and others.

I’m Sam
PTSD made me live in fear.
Being a yoga teacher I naturally looked for and found body and mind focussed ways to heal from the overwhelm of my experiences.
Now I am very grateful to be able to support myself in life’s ups and downs, and support others in their recovery from trauma.
