SomaSoul®️ Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy is a healing approach that connects the mind and body. While traditional talk therapy often focuses on cognition, somatic therapy recognizes that some wounds are stored in the body and cannot be fully healed through talking and analyzing alone. In somatic therapy, we turn toward our pain and wounds through body awareness. By allowing ourselves to feel these emotions fully, we create the conditions for them to move through us and begin to heal.
At SomaSoul, this process involves movement and expressive arts to support emotional release and integration.
Shake Your Soul ®️
What does it mean to dance with soul? It’s hard to explain, but you know it when it happens!
Shake Your Soul is a mindful and soulful dance experience set to the rhythms of world music. Through Shake Your Soul you strengthen the mind-body connection as you move with and feel a sense of grace, presence, joy, sensuality, fluid strength, and freedom.
You feel the music within you as the rhythms and melodic “feel” of the music move your body and soul. Your hips start swaying and rotating, your legs feel free to move, your spine may undulate as your heart pulses with rhythm. Your body comes alive with spirit and soul.
It is so renewing when we feel alive, free, and joyful within our bodies, engaging in physical movement that doesn’t require willpower because it spiritually nourishes us. THIS is the Shake Your Soul experience.
Shake Your Soul is a unique blend of:
contemplative and mindful movement (through elements of qigong and yoga)
fluid and dynamic dance expression
creative explorations that deepen and liberate your connection to yourself and to others.
AF-EMDR
Attachment-Focused EMDR
Attachment-Focused Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (AF-EMDR) is a somatic therapy that integrates elements of traditional EMDR and attachment theory to address trauma, particularly attachment-related wounds. It expands on standard EMDR protocols by emphasizing the therapeutic relationship and building internal resources before processing trauma. Somatic therapy, in general, focuses on the mind-body connection and uses techniques to help individuals process trauma through physical sensations and body awareness.
