The Conversation Every Body Wants to Have with You

Your body talks to itself and with its environment every millisecond of every day. Don't you want in on that conversation? It will make a huge difference in how you experience the day. Every type of well-being, whether it's physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, happens through the body. However, what happens in the body will be according to its programming or conditioning unless we guide and shape its responses. Hundreds of millions of Americans live day by day in preventable chronic pain that limits their ability to work, play, and rest at night. This little known, easy-to-learn method has been around for decades and helped countless people to be empowered to help themselves. Somatic education not only is an invaluable adjunct to whatever workout routine you already have, it can also be used as the foundation of your wellness plan. It uses the body's own communication systems that retrain tension patterns to release, balance, and reset your system. It really works! The principles of this body of work are embedded in osteopathy, chiropractic, t'ai chi and chi kung, meditation, yoga, performing arts, sports, and dance. They all require consciously tuning in and connecting to an aspect of the body and mind in order to optimize its capacity to respond in a harmonious, efficient way. Understanding these principles sets you free to self-regulate and maintain balance on your own.
