Our community went deeper during last month’s Somatic Communal Release Level 2, exploring new ways to move, connect, and release. This group took release to the next level- showing up fully, letting go completely, and trusting the safety of our community.

Ready to experience what somatic movement is all about? Start with our Somatic Communal Release Level 1 co-lab on February 25th.
Can’t wait that long? We’ve got you covered. Come connect with us at one of our January co-labs instead! You’ll find those at the link in our bio or email us at info@somatherapyandwellness.com for more info.

We learn the embodied experience of self regulation through mirror neurons in the brain and somatic implicit memory (aka how it feels in the body).
These are some simple tips for when intentionally engaging in co-regulation between caregiver and child.
Join us on January 11th for our next Caregiver & Me Co-lab!

Getting to the place where we can see someone’s reaction to our own boundaries as a reflection of them and not the integrity of the boundary is huge! And takes time/work!
How they respond is an indicator of how you proceed in the relationship. Ultimately, boundaries help us have those relationships!💛

May you have moments of connections with your body and spirit this holiday.
May you not abandon the work you have done for the sake of other’s comfort.
May your efforts and self reconstruction shine in the presence of those and traditions that once told you and expected of you a role that no longer serves you.
May you delight in gentle moments of glimmers and hope.
May you love wide and deep and stop and retreat when necessary.
May you connect with the wonder and awe of your inner child.
May you lament and grieve for the sorrows of mother earth and the systems that break her and us.
May you know that you are worthy of healing AND this holiday continue or begin to curiously explore yours!
~ with all our love, SOMA

Our work with Complex Trauma (CPTSD) involves helping clients understand the implicit emotional learnings that drive patterns in relationships. We help them explore the answers they came up with to stay safe and connected - ones that once’s served them but now hinder them. We help them move towards building safe boundaries, communicating needs, and taking risks to form new healthy relationships.
Shifting from feeling like their needs and happiness are more important than yours is a process! But one worth journeying!

Truly a time for the caregiver and child to build trust, co-regulate and connect.
Child attendee age 5-12

SOMA had the ✨B E S T✨ (read as hilarious and fun) holiday party this past weekend!
It’s wild to think that in just 2yrs there are enough of us, SOMA staff and local healing practitioner collaborators, to gather and delight together! *We missed Donna! who had horrible timing and just had to go and be sick the day of😜😘

Taking time to pause and have fun together, to reflect to this awesome staff and collaborators, our pride and gratitude for them was an honor! We have such an incredible team that work so very hard to bring the safest, inclusive, and well trained care to our community. We LOVE our community and believe in it!

Everyone is worthy of healing! And Healing doesn’t just happen on the couch, it happens in community

A HUGE thank you to for their incredible event space! If you are planning an event we highly recommend you check out our lovely Ghent neighbors as an option!
