Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a body-oriented approach to regulating the nervous system and resolving the physical and psychological symptoms of stress, shock and trauma. Through awareness of sensations in the body, SE aims to gently re-establish the natural flow of life energy, supporting the safe release of symptoms from the nervous system, putting the past where it belongs, and restoring body, heart and mind to a relaxed wholeness. SE can be helpful for many individuals who have experienced either overwhelming traumatic life events or periods of continual stress. A traumatic event is an experience that causes physical, emotional or psychological distress. It is an event that is perceived and experienced as a threat to one’s safety or to the stability of one’s world. If the traumatic experience is too great, or we have inadequate support, our nervous system becomes overwhelmed and cannot return to its healthy place of resilience and equilibrium. We may stay either in a state of high arousal, reacting adversely to the slightest sound or movement and being hyperactive, or we may move into a state of shutdown, disassociation and depression. The consequences of these experiences can have deep psychological and physical effects on the body causing a variety of traumatic symptoms. These symptoms are not caused by a traumatic event itself but by the leftover survival energy that has not been resolved and discharged from the system and therefore has got stuck. Each time we are not able to return to a relaxed settled state, our nervous system becomes more hypersensitive or unresponsive and we are more likely to be affected by events, actions or experiences. SE works with the ‘felt sense’ of the body, at the physiological (functioning) level, where traumatic activation is held in the body. SE helps us to self-regulate our nervous system and reconnect with our own innate capacity to recover, returning us to experience greater peace, vitality, a sense of wholeness, self-confidence and self-empowerment. As these shifts happen, there are naturally changes in the way we respond both consciously and unconsciously to stressful situations. Read more

A meditation and a medicine, designed to release the dancer that lives inside us all. Regardless... A meditation and a medicine, designed to release the dancer that lives inside us all. Regardless of size, shape, age, race, religion, limitations or experience, everyone is welcome. To find our dance is to plug ourselves directly back into our most deliciously fluid and creatively free selves. Thus freeing up the source of inspiration where we have boundless potential and possibilities. The 5Rhythms® are states of being. They offer us a journey through different landscapes that inform, inspire, reveal and shape us. We inquire into the movement vocabulary of each rhythm and how they naturally occur through our bodies and in our relationship with every day life. We connect with our body; our physical energy, skin, bones, breath and roots. We create the conditions for being more available to deepen our connection with ourselves, our relationship to others and with our sense of belonging to a greater tribe or community. We work out not only the physical body but also the soul. The dance floor offers us the space for deep exploration of embodied presence through movement as a healing art and spiritual practice. When we put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. The five rhythms are: flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness. They come together to create a wave. Read more
