Nervous tension (stress) and emotions can get trapped within our bodies when we do not give ourselves what we need to allow processing and integration. This can result in:
- Unexplained pain and
- A tendency towards injury or illness
- Emotional outbursts
- A lack of emotion (in situations where you would normally expect a response)
- Difficulty thinking, planning, remembering (executive brain dysfunction)
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Cancer, auto-immune disease and other physical dysfunction
The first video below describes how somatic exploration can work as a release as well as a few key things to keep in mind so you are safe in your exploration. If for any reason, you do not feel safe, seek the guidance and help from someone trained in Somatic Healing and Therapy.
The second video guides you through the process, step by step. While this video has been created to be 9 minutes long, once you understand the process you can make your explanation as long or as short as you desire and require for it to be effective.
Somatic Exploration (Explanation)
Somatic Exploration (exercise)
This exploration begins with lying down on your back so you may like a yoga mat or blanket on the floor for comfort. If for any reason you can not get down on the floor this exploration can be done sitting in a chair or any other comfortable posture.
A blanket is recommended for the integration at the end of the exploration.
About Michelle
Hi I’m Michelle Marsh and I am a coach, therapist, Kundalini Yoga teacher and lover of life.
As Mum with ADHD and highly sensitive person who is also a sensation seeker, I understand what it’s like to have your sensitivity running your life instead of aiding it. But I also know from experience that there is light at the end of the tunnel if you are willing to do the work. For myself, I was never afraid of doing the work… I just couldn’t work out WHAT to do! After years of searching, a few burn outs/breakdowns and intense study I became clear on what works and what doesn’t.
But I am not just sharing with you from an experience point of view. I am also teaching from a professional stance as someone who has studied and integrated teachings from biological, psychological and esoteric traditions. These include Creative Therapies, Kundalini Yoga (KRI), Registered Nursing, Clinical Hypnotherapy, Plant Medicine and Natural Living.
I combine my naturally enthusiastic belief in EVERY BODY with my natural empathic talents to provide you with just the right amount of space and direction so you can go deep and resurface anew.
During the time that I am your coach, I will not leave you hanging between sessions as I am available via email to answer questions and provide support as needed.
If you are unsure whether working with me is right for your unique circumstances, please reach out and I will help you to find clarity. I don’t do sales calls so our chat will be very casual and I will refer you in the right direction if I see that Aromanosis is not right for you at this time.
