Soma Wisdom, Wilsons Creek (2026)

The body’s natural state is wholeness.

When something is off balance, it always lets us know.

If we can learn to stay with the discomfort long enough, it will reveal its next step forward — without the need to control, change, or manipulate experience.

This is at the core of the healing process: learning to trust the organicity of the body and surrender to its own way of finding its way back home. 💛

My next Tension and Trauma Release TRE® Workshop coming up tomorrow Saturday 20th Sept 2025 in Mona Vale, NSW.

TRE® is a wonderful method that supports the release of deeply held patterns of tension, stress and even trauma. Also, it supports deepening the connection with your body and mind, leading to a greater sense of presence, grounding and ease.

👉🏻 What is TRE?

TRE consist of six gentle exercises that are designed to stress the psoas muscle that reply purely on the body’s natural ability to trigger tremors. This releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this natural mechanism is activated in a safe environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance. This therapeutic tremoring helps the body release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension, and even trauma.

The TRE Workshops are a great opportunity for you to learn and experience the TRE® method within safe environment.

See details of the session below, booking link via events section.

📍Date: Saturday 20th Sept 2025
📍Location: 63 Bassett Street, Mona vale 2103
📍Time: 10:30-12:00pm
📍Cost: $45

I would love to see you there. Come relax and unwind with me.

Love
Renata

Self-limiting beliefs do not originate in our thoughts alone; they are rooted in implicit memories formed during childhood and through traumatic experiences.

These implicit memories create somatic patterns—maps of reality about ourselves and the world—that operate beyond our conscious awareness. This is why we often feel stuck in certain patterns without fully understanding why.

The healing process is not about simply changing thoughts but about transforming the foundation from which those thoughts arise—our implicit memories, held within the tissues of our body (our soma).

In body-based therapy, we work directly with these somatic patterns, enabling rapid shifts in subconscious limiting beliefs that contribute to suffering in our lives.

Seeking anything outside the body is to leave yourself behind and retreat into conceptual reality.

Leaving the body means leaving the present moment — the only place where you can fully know yourself and create a life aligned with your truth.

Building a relationship of trust and true belonging with the body begins with developing interoception — the capacity to sense yourself from the inside out, rather than thinking about yourself.

In other words, interoception is the ability to sense, feel, and know yourself directly, without the usual filters and judgments layered over experience.

This direct knowing of reality — also known as embodiment — is how we end the seeking and return to our only true belonging: ourselves. 💛

Soma Wisdom is a space for deep healing and awakening through the innate intelligence of the body. Through somatic inquiry and embodiment practices, we work together to release trauma, transform limiting beliefs, and cultivate safety, resilience, and inner freedom.

My aim is to support your well-being by providing tools and a safe container for deep processing, so you can reconnect with your body’s wisdom and experience a more balanced, harmonious, and empowered life.

Friends

I’m delighted to share a few news and offerings I have coming up in this first half of 2025.

At the heart of these offerings is a deep wish to co-create a safe space for deep listening and to support your organic unfoldment toward truth and fulfilment.

In the midst of our busy lives, it’s easy to disconnect from our true nature and forget what really matters. Taking time away and gathering in community with shared intention is a powerful way to remember our true belonging, reconnect with our innate wisdom, and regain clarity.

Wishing you a peaceful and joyful year ahead. I hope to see you around soon.

I am delighted to be offering a dharma talk tomorrow at the Golden Wattle Sangha in Paddington, NSW.

The theme for the talk is on ‘Embodied Awakening’. Below is a short description on what to expect:

∼

‘Awakening is the process of realising the interconnected nature of existence—seeing through the illusion of separateness from others, the world, and the universe. This insight liberates us from suffering and aligns us with the truth of impermanence and interdependence. While teachings and practices can guide us, the body is the ground where awakening unfolds, offering a direct experience of the dynamic, ever-changing nature of reality.

However, cultural conditioning, stress, and trauma can often cause us to disconnect from the body, making it difficult to access this truth clearly and directly. Through self-inquiry, mindfulness, and somatic resourcing, we can reconnect with the body and the immediacy of our experience. This reconnection naturally deepens our insight into the interdependent nature of reality. In this embodied presence, we uncover the innate wisdom within, transforming our relationship with life and supporting the unfolding of the awakening process.’

∼

📍When: Thur 28th Nov 2024
📍Time: 7-8pm
📍Where: 189 Underwood Street Paddington, NSW, 2021
📍Cost: by donation
