So many of the signs we label as “stress” or “being too much in our heads” are actually our nervous systems asking for safety.

A shallow breath.
A restless mind.
A fast reaction that arrives before we do.

These aren’t failures or personality traits, they’re old protective patterns doing their best with what they know. When you catch one, try meeting it gently instead of correcting it.

Feel your feet.
Lengthen your exhale.
Give your body a moment to settle.

If you’re a therapist, these cues matter in your clients and in you. They shape the quality of presence you’re able to offer.

And if you’d like to explore nervous-system aware practice more deeply The Soma Massage Method™ is built on exactly this kind of attuned, body-led wisdom.

Many of us long to stay in the rest and digest state all the time—feeling calm, safe, and at ease.

However the goal isn’t to stay there constantly. Instead, the aim is to build a resilient nervous system that can switch between calm and activated states effectively and move efficiently between states.

My Soma Massage™ sessions offer an opportunity to experience deep rest, especially for those who often live in chronic stress or shutdown.

It’s a chance for your body to recalibrate, restore, and strengthen neural pathways for safety and resilience, whilst unconscious, automatic neural pathways wired for stress become weaker.

This enables you to manage stress better and rebuild your capacity for managing whatever life throws at you.
