Somatic therapy recognizes the mind-body connection and the impact of bodily experiences on psychological well-being. Trauma and emotional distress can be stored in the body so it is important to address both psychological and physical aspects of healing. Somatic therapy involves various techniques to help clients access and process emotions, sensations, and memories stored in the body, promoting self-awareness, regulation, and integration.
Breathwork therapy is a holistic therapeutic approach that utilizes conscious and controlled breathing techniques to promote emotional healing, personal growth, and overall well-being. It combines elements of psychology, spirituality, and physiology to facilitate a deep connection between the mind, body, and breath.
The breathwork session is an opportunity for individuals to access and process deep-rooted emotions, trauma, and limiting beliefs that may be stored in the body. It can help individuals release stagnant energy, gain insights into their patterns and behaviors, and create space for transformation and personal growth.
