WHAT IS SOMATIC WORK?

What somatic work can feel like.

Somatic simply means working with the body. Stress, emotion and change can show up in our breath, posture, energy and sense of safety. In a session, I invite you to notice those signals and explore them gently, alongside the thoughts and stories that matter to you.

That might look like feeling your feet on the floor, noticing your breath, moving, resting, journalling or speaking about what comes up. Gentle, supportive somatic touch is an important part of how I work. It can help you feel the support beneath you, notice what is happening in your body and settle at your own pace. I explain the touch I offer and check that it feels right for you. We work at your pace. There is no right way to respond and you can always choose what feels supportive.

In my 1:1 work, we connect this awareness with identity: the roles you carry, the patterns you have learned and the person you are becoming. In circles and retreats, we also make space to be witnessed and connect with others.

This can also support you as a business owner: understanding your needs alongside your professional role, exploring your brand identity and using regulation tools as you navigate leadership and change.
