Somatics comes from the Greek word 'soma', the living body in its wholeness, the interconnection between mind, body and emotion.
Somatics teaches how to connect to and listen to your body's innate wisdom.
When you live in your body, you have access to a range of emotions and sensations. Through somatics you learn to identify the sensations in your body, uncover what they mean and then respond to these sensations.
The capacity to be self responsive builds a sense of internal safety and self trust, the belief that you can protect and take care of yourself.
Engaging in somatics will have you look at how you want to build your future, what you need to heal and what skills you will need to develop in order to do this.
