Somatic Awakening: Deep Embodiment, Yoga Nidra, & The Art of Sacred Guiding

Step out of the analytical mind and drop fully into the wisdom of your physical form. This immersive afternoon is a journey designed for both dedicated practitioners seeking a profound internal shift and yoga teachers, space-holders, or healers looking to refine their trauma-informed, somatic guiding skills.
Our experience begins with a deep dive into Somatic Embodiment. Through slow, intuitive, and felt-sense movement, we will untangle modern stress patterns held within the nervous system. By prioritizing feeling over achieving, you will learn to listen to the subtle whispers of your body, cultivating a state of genuine presence and safety within yourself.
From this grounded state of embodiment, you will be guided into a extended Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep) practice. Resting comfortably, you will journey through the layers of the self (koshas), allowing your brainwaves to slow down into a state of deep, conscious rest. This practice is specifically designed to integrate the physical somatic releases, leaving you feeling profoundly restored, clear, and reconnected to your true nature.
