“Somatic Flow”

Healing sessions that combine tenants of flow state, mindfulness and somatic parts work to release burdens, unblock intrinsic motivation and embody inherent worth.

Participants will be guided through meditation to connect with and identify stuck beliefs in the body. Sessions may include breathwork, visualization, dialogue, physical touch, movement, sound and journaling. 

Participants will explore new sensations in the subtle body, uncovering and shifting stuck patterns. They’ll connect to their true nature, identify desires, and surrender to outcomes—experiencing presence, lightness and freedom from past stories.
