This distinction — whether we look for the Health or the distress in our bodies — defines our healing journey… and the likelihood of overcoming whatever health struggles we may be facing.

What we see and feel within us is a form of perception called interoception — and when we optimize it, we have far greater authority over our health and wellbeing than we likely ever imagined.

During this literally “eye-opening” hour with osteopathic doctor Brian Siddhartha Ingle, you’ll explore how looking inward with loving interoception can help you access, embody, and circulate the healing forces that exist in your body — and actually improve your vision.

What You'll Learn During Use Interoception to Improve Your Eyesight and “See” Into Your Health

Brian teaches others how to use their inner vision, or interoception, to “see” how our internal perceptions are affecting our health.

… and then guides us in using clinical biodynamic osteopathic practices to track and direct the positive health in our system to our eyes and other places within us that need healing.

During this literally “eye-opening” hour, you’ll:

• Learn what the health in your system looks and feels like using interoception — and potent insights on how to locate the health in your system
• Be guided in a somatic movement practice to embody the health and direct these forces to your eyes
• Gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the formative embryological forces that are still helping you now
• Explore Brian’s biodynamic osteopathic formula for self-healing
• Discover the connection between your inner and outer vision — and how you can apply Brian’s formulas for self-healing to your vision

As a pioneer in the field of somatic education, a certified Hanna Somatic Educator®, an osteopath, and a practitioner of the Feldenkrais Method®, Brian teaches that we always have more health within us than the conditions, illnesses, or pains that we identify with.

Cultivating interoception, we can begin to look inward with compassion and intention, which allows us to access, embody, and circulate the healing forces that exist in our bodies — and actually improve our vision and the rest of our well-being.

You’ll unlock the profound connection between health and what we see and feel within us using interoception and the powerful clinical practices of biodynamic osteopathy to improve your sight and optimize your overall health.

…including evidence-based clinical skills and trauma-informed somatic techniques for self-regulation.

You'll also learn more specifically about the art and skills of integrating somatic psychology tools into your healing practice.

Why Attend “Somatic Trauma Therapy Training for Professionals”

If you are a practitioner in the fields of psychotherapy, social work, mental health, or wellness coaching — do you sense that your patients’ and clients’ traumatic experiences require more than conventional interventions?

You’re absolutely right, says Manuela Mischke-Reeds, MFT, clinical therapist and international somatic psychology teacher with more than 25 years of experience.

Your patients and clients likely don’t possess the spoken language to express the complexity of their pain — yet, their bodies can express it all. Years ago, these same revelations inspired Manuela to create her own Somatic Trauma Therapy approach.

It draws on various somatic therapy practices rooted in polyvagal theory and includes key practices from Hakomi Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Innate Somatic Intelligence Trauma Therapy.

Class Topics for “Somatic Trauma Therapy Training for Professionals”

During this free online spiritual growth workshop you'll learn how you can add Somatic Trauma Therapy skills to your existing professional practice…

… so you can assess which embodiment tools your patients or clients will benefit from most, and empower them to trust their own innate somatic intelligence that lies beneath the trauma.

Manuela will also share how you can expand your inner Soma toolkit with the Somatic Trauma Therapy approach to more effectively bring healing to both your clients and yourself.

As Manuela will explain, just as important as supporting your client’s journey towards a whole and healthy life is your inside-out transformation as their healer.

To effectively and lovingly guide your clients into the healing potential they hold in their bodies and hearts, you must first mediate your own triggers, projections, transference, and more.

In this hour-long free online event, you’ll discover:

• Why somatic therapy work is so essential in healing trauma
• How the collective trauma of world events is likely impacting your individual client sessions — and how to be in somatic coherence in times of fear and polarization
• How to address the individual suffering through the body to face life’s larger questions — developing somatic resilience in the process
• How to regulate your own nervous system when you’re working with trauma clients — to most effectively navigate systemic trauma issues that may be overwhelming both you and your client
• A guided ventral vagal practice to regulate yourself toward internal safety and connection

About Your Teacher – Manuela Mischke-Reeds, MFT

Manuela Mischke-Reeds, MFT, is a somatic trauma psychotherapist and an international teacher of somatic psychology, integrating movement and mindful embodiment tools into her work. She was the co-director of the Hakomi Institute of California, and recently founded Embodywise, a learning community that supports somatic psychology methods that promote wisdom through the body.

She developed an integrative trauma methodology called Innate Somatic Intelligence Trauma Therapy Approach (ISITTA) that focuses on somatic movement and somatic therapy techniques in an in-depth training program for therapists and practitioners.

Manuela has more than 25 years of clinical experience in the field of trauma and somatics, including working with psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy with first responders. She lectures and trains professionals on the topics of mindfulness, somatic psychology, trauma therapy, and compassionate relational approaches to healing.

She has hosted the Hakomi Summit for The Shift Network, and is the author of several books, including 125 Somatic Psychotherapy Tools for Trauma and Stress… and 8 Keys to Practicing Mindfulness: Practical Strategies for Emotional Health and Wellbeing. She will soon be releasing a new book on movement therapy tools for clinicians.

So that you can let go of unresolved trauma that’s blocking you from manifesting your best life.

Why Attend “How Somatic Intelligence Can Release Trauma”

Do you know what might be stopping you from cultivating your most meaningful life?

If you haven’t yet created the kind of fulfilling relationships that make you feel accepted, held, and understood… found work that provides you with a profound sense of purpose… or built the financial stability or optimal health and wellbeing that enables you to do the things you love…

… you may not know the answer to why certain aspects of your life might not be working the way you’d like… but your body does.

According to Chen Lizra, founder of The Power Of Somatic Intelligence and Somatic Intelligence Wisdom Academy, when something’s not showing up in your life the way you desire, the root cause is likely coming from emotions or sensations that are trapped in your body…

…often due to unfelt or unresolved trauma you’ve experienced or that’s been passed down to you from your family lineage.

Class Topics for “How Somatic Intelligence Can Release Trauma”

Join Chen for this free online spiritual healing workshop where she’ll guide you to understand how your body communicates with you — the power of your unique somatic wisdom (which is different for everyone) — so you can begin healing and living with a higher quality of life…

… filled with optimal health, happiness, balance, improved emotional regulation, and a higher capacity to process unaddressed feelings.

In this free hour-long online event, you’ll:

• Understand why when something’s not working in your life, it’s likely a result of unresolved trauma held in your body — and why healing it opens up more possibilities for living the life you truly desire
• Learn that somatic intelligence is a powerful method for understanding the wisdom held in your body and how it affects the way you live — and how your body communicates with you through sensations and emotions
• Experience a guided attunement practice to become more present in your body and more aware of your feelings and sensations — enabling you to identify and name them
• Recognize that your body is the boss and that it’s important to respect, rather than force your healing pace
• Learn that there are 5 elements of somatic intelligence, including the sabrosura — the Divine Feminine energy that connects you to self-love and the motherly nurturing that can help heal trauma from your body, regardless of your gender
• Understand that once you tune in to your somatic intelligence, you have more choices about how you live, which leads to a higher quality of life

Chen’s approach to healing enables you to process emotions that may have become locked inside you because your nervous system wasn’t able to integrate them…

… and then reclaim parts of yourself that you haven’t been able to access, so you can start living into your fullest potential and your most deeply fulfilling life.

About Your Teacher – Chen Lizra

Chen Lizra is the founder of the Power of Somatic Intelligence and the Somatic Intelligence Wisdom Academy, which she started as a quest to find her true self. After years of struggling with suicidal thoughts, and overcoming a childhood trauma resulting from her mom’s mental illness, she set out on a journey to find the solution to healing trauma somatically. Over 25 years, she developed a one-of-a-kind somatic method with groundbreaking results that are literally transforming her clients’ lives every day.

Her deep level of compassion and understanding of what it means to struggle with mental health, informed by her own recovery from deep trauma, promoted a heightened sense of empathy, which she uses to intuitively feel into a client’s ancestral line and their somatic imprint, showing them how to release the blocks preventing them from living happy, fulfilled lives.

Chen’s relentless spirit and determination to offer natural healing to every client she works with have made her a sought-after somatic coach. She helps high achievers heal their nervous system and restore it back to its natural state by focusing on embodiment, somatics, and experiencing, combined with ancient wisdoms.

Chen, who specializes in embodied femininity, has been featured in numerous publications and podcasts, including The New York Times, Cosmopolitan UK, Women of Impact, and Lewis Howes’ School of Greatness. She also has a popular TED talk, boasting 12 million views, called “The Power of Seduction in Our Everyday Lives.”

Yet trauma, its long-term health effects and the way forward can be difficult to recognize.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or trapped in your own life, you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way.

Everyone has experienced some form of trauma in their life, and in these challenging times, many people are feeling incredibly overwhelmed and don’t know what steps to take next.

During this “Biology Of Trauma 3.0 Summit,” you'll get the tools to move from fear and overwhelm to resilience and recovery.

=================================

What You'll Learn During Biology of Trauma Summit 2023

During this free virtual healing event, you’ll discover:

• Why people are more prone to trauma than ever before
• Key indicators that you’re experiencing overwhelm
• Diseases most associated with trauma and stored emotions
• Root causes associated with all addictions
• How trauma affects the nervous system and the vagus nerve
• Strategies and practices for releasing stored trauma
• Techniques to transform grief and pain
• Effective tools for rewiring your nervous system for health and aliveness

One of the most difficult things about healing from trauma is how confusing and lost you can feel because there doesn’t seem to be a clear path.

People tend to think of the long-term effects of trauma as psychological, but in fact, the body and brain both experience lasting biological changes.

Burnout, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, PTSD, pain, weight gain, gut issues and chronic fatigue are all part of the predictable patterns of stored trauma.

To find the way out, you have to understand the biology of trauma: the biology that predisposes you to trauma and keeps you stuck in fear, insecurity and inflammation even if you are doing all the treatments, therapy and meditation.

Patterns of stress and overwhelm that get wired into our nervous systems can have long-term effects on our health, becoming the true root causes of many symptoms and diagnoses.

The Biology of Trauma 3.0 Summit bridges the worlds of mental health, trauma therapy, neuroscience and functional medicine with experts who explore the emotional, psychological and physiological aspects of trauma. Join us to learn how to rewire trauma patterns for improved mental and physical health!

Benefits of Attending the Biology of Trauma 3.0 Summit

• Safely reconnect with your body
• Be able to use trauma as a gift rather than a setback
• Move beyond trauma-informed models to growth & wellness
• Protect your emotional well-being
• Choose the appropriate trauma therapy tools for you
• Improve your sleep & lower inflammation
• Build authentic relationships
• Go through difficult life events without them overwhelming or crushing you
• Integrate biology into trauma therapy for faster, better results
• And so much more!

Why We Don't Always Know We Have Trauma

In these challenging times, many people are feeling incredibly overwhelmed and don’t know what steps to take next.

Overwhelming experiences, even past experiences in childhood – feeling like you don’t belong, feeling different, feeling that you’re unlovable – may not be something you would recognize as trauma in your life.

We often don’t see it as trauma because we’re thinking of it as “stress” or “emotion,” but it is the experience of overwhelm that impacts the body the most.

Trauma and chronic stress have lasting effects on our body and on our biology: burnout, depression, anxiety, PTSD, pain, weight gain, gut issues, trouble sleeping, chronic fatigue.

Free Gifts For Attending the Biology of Trauma Summit 2023

When you register for the Biology of Trauma 3.0 Summit, you'll get access to several free gifts, including:

Gift #1: “Steps to Identify and Heal Trauma!” eBook

The path to healing trauma starts with identifying where it originated and how it’s stored in the body. Learn strategies for releasing the imprint left behind after challenging experiences!

You might be surprised to learn that trauma is not an event. Although it might occur around an event, it is not about the event. Trauma is the experience your body had going through the event, or through a period of time.

Trauma is anything that, for any reason, at that time overwhelmed you. It’s the state of the nervous system at the time of an event that determines whether one person walks away from it fine and another is deeply affected.

And it is the biology of trauma that can contribute to many health conditions when trauma remains unresolved. How do you know if you have trauma? What can you do to fix it?

Get answers to these questions and take the next step towards your healing self and away from trauma when you read this free eBook.

And see how your soul’s purpose is manifesting in a sacred story that transforms your ancestral inheritance.

What You'll Learn During “Somatic Writing With Your Ancestors”

When things don’t go your way, have you ever felt you may have inherited substantial burdens from your family lineage that are holding you back?

Despite having done a lot of spiritual and personal development work, many of us still struggle with lingering traumas and unhelpful stories, leaving us feeling disconnected.

This sense of disconnection and confusion can be traced to the systems of oppression that have severed our ancestral relationships and erased the sacred stories contained within our bloodlines — both of which hold the key to our personal power, says celebrated writing teacher Tanya Taylor Rubinstein.

Tanya teaches a potent practice called Somatic Writing, which combines the mystical with the practical to navigate the world of the ancestors, helping you expand your sense of being “at home in your body,” connected to the world, and in deepest alignment with your soul’s purpose.

During this free online spiritual healing class, you’ll discover that when you excavate your story through this process, you call back your power, untether your writing and speaking voice, and deeply embody your own personal magic by becoming your most fully expressed, authentic, liberated self.

Class Topics For “Somatic Writing With Your Ancestors”

In this soul-empowering event, you’ll:

• Learn about the 13 practices of Somatic Writing to support you in accessing your deepest and most authentic voice
• Explore how your ancestral stories hold the key to unlocking your true potential
• Reclaim your ancestral connection to the dead to call back your power and transform your life
• Support yourself in expanding your self-worth, wealth, and pleasure through ongoing magical practice with your body, the land, and the ancestors

Tanya shares that anyone who desires access to an uncolonized self, to more power and connection, and to profound psychic and intuitive knowings will benefit from this practice.

You'll discover how to heal your lineage, unlock your ability to fully express your unique sacred story, and become a Great Ancestor for future generations.

About Your Teacher – Tanya Taylor Rubinstein

Experience a powerful 3-step somatic-movement technique to release chronic pain and physical and emotional limitations due to trauma.

Why Attend “The Pandiculation Technique: Somatic Movement to Release Trauma Response & Chronic Pain”

Throughout our lives, most of us experience some kind of trauma that can leave us with stress, chronic pain, and habitual movements that keep us stuck in uncomfortable and unhelpful patterns — both physically and emotionally.

Do you feel like you’ve tried many things to relieve your pain and nothing seems to work? Have you been told time and again that, despite your symptoms, there’s nothing wrong with you?

Martha Peterson, founder of Essential Somatics® and author of Move Without Pain, teaches us that no matter how much pain and discomfort we may experience, we all have the capacity to learn skills for self-regulating the levels of stress we hold in our body.

What You'll Learn During “The Pandiculation Technique: Somatic Movement to Release Trauma Response & Chronic Pain”

During this free spiritual healing workshop, she’ll demystify the causes and impact of chronic pain and illustrate how you can reconnect your mind with your body to reverse pain and postural imbalances, release stress and tension, regain physical control, and create a life of joyful movement.

In this restorative event, you’ll:

• Experience the simple yet effective technique of pandiculation to release chronic pain and tension anytime, anywhere — and reclaim your sense of self
• Understand how sensory motor amnesia is showing up in your body as chronically contracted muscles, causing unhelpful patterns of posture, movement, and thoughts
• Begin to demystify the conditions of chronic pain
• Learn how to use the miraculous workings of your brain to sense and regulate tension, so you can experience greater freedom of movement, self-actualization, self-agency, and emotional wellbeing
• Learn how to address the root cause of pain in your body — rather than just treating symptoms — and how to reset your whole body to function more optimally

Martha’s teaching methodology is grounded in the science of the nervous system, yet is also playful, safe, and accessible.

Her approach to somatic education has transformed the lives of people around the world, enabling them to restore freedom of movement and postural imbalances to reverse chronic muscle and joint pain — and it can transform your life too!

About Your Teacher – Martha Peterson

Martha Peterson is a Certified Clinical Somatic Educator and leader in the field of Somatic Education. She is the founder and CEO of Essential Somatics® and author of Move Without Pain. Martha heads a growing faculty of Clinical Somatic Educators who present Essential Somatics teacher trainings, retreats, workshops, and seminars around the world. She maintains a private clinical practice in Manitou Springs, Colorado.

Martha’s expertise comes from more than 30 years of working in the field of dance, bodywork, and Somatic Education. As a former professional dancer who suffered chronic hip and knee pain due to injuries, Martha understands the frustration and struggle many people experience when trying to discern between the myriad methods that claim to relieve or “fix” chronic pain. She eventually discovered Clinical Somatic Education, the only method that taught her how to reverse her pain and postural imbalances, regain physical control, and create a life of movement, choice, and joy.

Martha is an experienced hiker, inspired by her mother with whom she climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and trekked in Sikkim, Northern India. She has learned that the key to remaining healthy and mobile is daily, vigorous, fun movement, a regular somatic movement routine, a sense of humor, and learning the fine art of relaxation and self-regulation.

Complex trauma is often rooted in unresolved experiences from the past, where memories feel like they’re happening “in the now”––making it particularly difficult to engage the logical mind when the body remains dysregulated.

If the brain can’t find a way to down-regulate this automatic response, the brain can get trapped in a “default setting,” where it continues to repeat the same unhealthy responses and patterns time and again.

For your clients with complex trauma rooted in attachment injury––who present with a variety of symptoms, from psychological issues like anxiety, depression, anger and hopelessness to physical symptoms such as chronic pain, fatigue or digestive issues––it can often feel like they’re on high alert 24-7-365.

The truth is, traumatic experiences that happen during our formative years leave an imprint on the body and mind that can be difficult to sort out—or even articulate.

Even as therapists, it’s not easy to know what to look for.

The good news is that, no matter how complex the trauma, repair is possible.

Complex trauma can be demystified when you know how to pick up on subtle, nonverbal clues that reveal where there is work to be done and what is needed to move forward.

So how can we support clients suffering from complex trauma, especially when they may present with wide-ranging, diverse symptoms related to developmental trauma?

With the right training and proven somatic techniques, it’s possible to detect physical and behavioral signs of attachment injury embedded within complex trauma to:

• Tap into the body’s innate wisdom
• Calm the nervous system
• Unlock a greater capacity for healing

What You'll Learn During “Working With Attachment Injury Embedded in Complex Trauma”

“Every modality can and should employ Somatic Experiencing and Dynamic Attachment Repatterning to help deactivate the myriad of possible traumas that occur in the world.” – Dr. Peter Levine

With a fuller understanding of how complex trauma forms––and how our systems become dysregulated as a result, you’ll learn how to begin applying body-centered methods for processing and healing.

In this free, 90-minute LIVE training:

• You’ll get a glimpse at the transformative nature of Somatic Experiencing®, as Dr. Levine demonstrates clinical techniques using short examples from actual client sessions.
• Learn how to recognize and identify insecure attachment patterning––and what happens to our bodies (and emotions) when the threat response persists into adulthood.
• Why complex traumas form and remain stored in the body, including ways to release locked trauma to restore secure attachment and support post-traumatic growth and resilience.
• Dr. Levine will demonstrate how to become attuned to and read the physical signs of trauma so you can more safely and effectively address trauma that can’t be verbalized.
• You’ll get guidance in helping clients transition out of negative self-talk and other unproductive coping mechanisms––so you avoid re-traumatization and empower clients to repair early attachment trauma by reinforcing choice and curiosity.
• We’ll discuss perceptual skills and practical somatic techniques that help you recognize when your client is stuck in a threat response that’s keeping them from living in the present.
• Dr. Levine will walk us through several client demo scenarios to show you how to identify symptoms of core dysregulation, evaluate insecure attachment patterning and apply various somatic techniques that release trauma from the body.

With a deeper understanding of how complex trauma forms—and how our systems become dysregulated as a result––we can apply body-based attachment techniques to help our clients restore secure attachment and find long-lasting, effective relief from physical and psychological distress.

Whether you’re a seasoned Somatic Experiencing® therapist or just starting out, this is a rare opportunity to learn critical clinical skills (in a LIVE training format) from two top experts in trauma and attachment.

You’ll want to attend the live session, as Dr. Levine and Dr. Heller have set aside time to answer your questions at the end.

The Three Aspects of Complex Trauma That We Will Explore

1. How to Recognize and Identify Insecure Attachment Patterning

Dr. Levine and Dr. Heller discuss why attachment injury is inherent to all complex trauma––and what happens to our bodies (and emotions) when the fight, flight, freeze or fawn threat response persists into adulthood.

2. Why Complex Traumas Form and Manifest in the Body

Trauma-informed care means we need to have a basic understanding of how common traumatic stress responses remain stored in the body. We’ll review the relationship between bodily symptoms and emotions––and how locked trauma can be released to restore secure attachment and promote post-traumatic growth and resilience.

3. Clinical Tools to Support Clients with Complex Trauma

The body talks––but do we know how to listen? Dr. Levine will guide us through short examples of client demonstration sessions where he introduces body-based interventions that can be easily integrated with almost any therapeutic modality.

Why You Should Attend “Working with Attachment Injury Embedded in Complex Trauma”

This session is being facilitated by Peter Levine and Dr. Diane Poole Heller – two top experts in trauma and attachment.

Dr. Heller understands that to provide the most competent, compassionate care, it’s crucial to remain curious about the nature of trauma and the various paths to healing.

And as you likely know, there is no one more qualified than Dr. Levine to teach the intricacies of traumas, how they manifest in the body, and body-centered methods for processing and healing.

As therapists, we face trauma every day. We observe the symptoms. We listen to the stories. We support the recovery. But there is always more to learn.

Because at some point, we all have clients who struggle to let go of their pain. And despite all of our education and experience, we sometimes find ourselves at a loss for ways to help them move forward when they hit a plateau.

The reality is that many of us are taught theoretical principles without the methodology or framework of how to put it into everyday clinical practice.

But imagine how many more people we could heal if we could…

• Open our minds to new modalities, expand our perspective and confidently use new tools to understand and guide our clients’ healing journey.
• Share experiences and expertise, increasing our collective wisdom and skill to recognize complex trauma––even when it’s hidden.
• Access effective approaches and interventions to help people use the pain of the past as a catalyst to find relief, finally connect to their authentic self, restore secure attachment and set them on a path to healing.

This session is a perfect opportunity for you to recommit to strengthening your understanding of trauma and learn additional ways to restore presence, aliveness and connections.

You’ll also come away with practical strategies and interventions you can apply to client sessions immediately.

Who “Working with Attachment Injury Embedded in Complex Trauma” Is For

You should attend this free training if:

• You have clients who struggle with complex trauma, and you want to support them by uncovering and working with the trauma and stress states that underlie their conditions.
• You’d like to better understand how complex trauma develops—and explore effective ways to switch off the stress response to cultivate healing.
• As a therapist, you want practical, clinical tools and somatic techniques that help you identify the physical characteristics and manifestations of trauma, so you can guide your clients toward relief safely and successfully.
• You’ve seen your clients present with a seemingly endless array of unpredictable or changeable symptoms and you want to be able to help clients understand the functional nature of their symptoms, so they can find relief and begin healing.

In these troubled times, separation is promoted. Disconnection is endemic, and our shared humanity is neglected.

The body is often promoted, not as a holistic part of our being, but only as a consumer object.

But we know in our flesh and bones that there is another way.

You're not alone in feeling like this…

It’s easy to be anxious or despairing with all that’s going on.

We know that a kinder, saner, more embodied world is possible. Now's the time to find our bodies again.

There’s a lot the world needs, but it certainly will be a better place if it gets its body back!

The body is a gateway to greater harmony, peace and connection. To ourselves, each other and the planet. Not only is a more embodied world possible, but it’s necessary to the survival and health of the world.

What You'll Learn During “Discover the Muscle of the Soul”

It has been said that where our attention goes, energy flows — that by simply giving our attention to something we energize it with intention.

The widespread effects that our thoughts and attention can have on our health have been emphatically demonstrated within a variety of healing modalities and scientific disciplines.

Osteopathic medicine reveals that every act of attention or intention to act initiates a musculoskeletal response that activates your body’s neuromuscular stress reflexes — for better or worse.

These reflexes embed either a sense of calm, safety, and ease within your physiology, igniting the relaxed, health-infused state of the parasympathetic nervous system…

… or the agitation, fear, and constriction of an alarmed sympathetic nervous system — which too often leads to chronic pain and conditions, mystery (idiopathic) pain, illness, and dis-ease.

Osteopathic doctor Brian Siddhartha Ingle teaches that there is one area of the body in particular that holds tremendous power over your stress reflexes and their debilitating effects: the iliopsoas muscle group, also called the muscle of the soul.

Rising from different areas of the lumbar spine and pelvic bowl, this is the place where we store our trauma and history, he says. When it’s working, unburdened by stress and trauma, it enables us to be free in all ways — mind, body, heart, and soul.

During this powerful hour with Brian, who is also the founder of Living Somatics, you’ll learn how crucial the muscle of the soul is in your capacity to prevent and heal chronic stress, pain, and trauma — and to live with greater ease and a felt sense of freedom within your own body.

Class Topics for “Discover the Muscle of the Soul”

Join this free online spiritual healing workshop to explore:

• The muscle of the soul — and the role the iliopsoas muscle group plays in your overall wellbeing and spiritual evolution
• A guided experience to help free the muscle of the soul
• How your body is habitually experiencing the 3 neuromuscular reflexes of stress — and how this leads to chronic muscular or musculoskeletal pain
• The inner workings of Brian’s formula for healing: Embodiment + Health + Dis-ease
• Why Sensory Motor Amnesia (SMA) is the most common cause of chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system — and how to shift from SMA to sensory motor remembering
• The cause of your mystery aches and pains and lack of energy — and a process to unravel them

As a pioneer in the field of somatic education, a certified Hanna Somatic Educator, and practitioner of the Feldenkrais Method®, Brian teaches embodied movement as a vehicle to greater freedom.

Benefits of Discovering the Muscle of the Soul

During your time with him, you’ll learn how awareness and gentle somatic movement can be combined to mitigate the three neuromuscular reflexes of stress, address tension and pain, and support self-healing.

Learning how to transform attention into conscious awareness is the first step toward living in a more embodied and aligned way — better equipped to release the held patterns of fear and trauma that are buried within your body…

… while also enhancing your natural ability to self-regulate, balance your nervous system and overall health — and self-heal.

Brian will share another important step as well: why Sensory Motor Amnesia is the most common cause of chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system… and share his unique formula for healing.

You’ll also be guided through an experience to help free your “soul muscle”… illuminating a practical path to greater flexibility, peace, and optimized health.

Are you ready to free the muscle of your soul — and yourself from debilitating chronic stress, pain, and trauma?

Join Brian to take the first step. In joining, you’ll also be among the first to learn about his new course on somatic osteopathy, a clinical approach to embodied health, awareness, and wellbeing.
