Releasing Trauma through Bodywork
Releasing Trauma through Bodywork
After 20 years and 12000+ hours of private sessions, working on hundreds of bodies from many different cultures and age groups, there is one thing I know to be true.
Our bodies are story tellers.
When we stop and listen to them, we can move away from unnecessary suffering, pain and illness by letting go of the old beliefs and traumas that hold us back.
Bodywork can help you recognize how you hold the old story and how to let go of long-held tension and fears. As you do so, you’ll gain back energy that was once trapped there and you’ll naturally feel more vibrant and free.
Releasing Trauma through Body Movement
Releasing Trauma through Body Movement
Your body wants to move. It wants to feel. It wants to run, jump, go left, go right and turnaround. It wants to speed up and slow down. It wants to stand and sit. It wants to shimmy and shake. It wants to be big. It wants to be subtle. It wants to feel vibrant and alive. It wants to be free.
But we’ve been conditioned to be in control, be good, be safe, be pretty, be smart, be polite, be acceptable. To not disturb. These rules filter into everything we do in life. We limit our movements. We hesitate. We’re calculated and cautious. We hide. We cut ourselves off from one of the most basic needs of our bodies, and we suffer. With pain, despair, loneliness, disconnect from our hearts.
The quickest way to break through this stuckness and become rich, flexible, adaptable bodies is to move. When you move through the old layers, you access your inner power and have more choice and freedom. If you are sick of old insecurities and fears holding you back, come to one of my movement workshops.
