A common and understandable question about my group somatic movement workshops - Moving into Awareness - is whether you have to sign up to a series? The answer is no: come along to discover what Somatic Movement is, and enjoy one or a series of gentle, guided exercises, movement, reflection and rest, pitched to your comfort and the level of participation you choose.
If you enjoy the experience of taking a pause from life and focusing on your body, breathing, movement, and imagination, then come along to our next group workshop one week today (Saturday 22nd). More here: www.pennycollinson.com/workshops

It may be November, but many of us are already feeling a quickening of pressure as end of year deadlines, commitments and expectations are approaching. The benefits of moving with awareness include greater internal calm, mental wellbeing, better body posture and comfort. Just reading that could be reducing your heart rate and stress levels. No deadline is more important than your health; find out more about reducing body-mind stress through moving with awareness at: www.pennycollinson.com/the-benefits-of-somatics

DON’T forget to put the clocks back tonight… How do you greet the shortening days and lowering temperatures of autumn: with open arms or downcast eyes? Our posture and movements reveal our emotions, even when we try not to, which can create disconnect and stress between what we feel and what we show or project. Client-led and paced, 1-2-1 Somatic Movement therapy sessions help translate and reconnect the body-mind link, and find more safety and creativity in our bodies. Feel welcome to drop me a private message with any queries, or email on hello@pennycollinson.com.

After the intense dry spring, hot summer spells and recent rain, embracing the natural turning of the seasons into autumn can be wonderfully freeing and grounding for our bodies and mental health. Take a moment to stand outside, breathe in the cooling air, and appreciate the rich autumn colours in the plants, trees and sunsets that surround you. Become aware of your breathing slowing and deepening, your muscles relaxing, the feeling of stillness. See www.pennycollinson.com/the-benefits-of-somatics for more moments you can key into at any time.
