1:1 Somatic Coaching – Practice Sessions
Discover the power and intelligence of your body.
You’ve probably heard it before: your body has wisdom.
But do you know what this actually means? Do you know how to tap into the wisdom and intelligence of your body?
Most us do not. For many reasons, we are conditioned away from our feeling and sensing selves. And this can have a pretty big impact. This might leave you, for example:
- Not feeling connected with yourself, how you are, what you need, and what you want.
- Struggling to find depth in relationships.
- Feeling limited emotionally – the same feelings (or lack of feelings) define your daily experience.
- Being reactive under pressure and later regretting how you showed up (or didn’t show up).
- Struggling to make grounded decisions.
- Having an idea of what you’d like to be different, but unable to move forward.
“Working with Christina has been truly transformative. Through her somatic coaching, I have been able to move beyond old patterns of fear and self-doubt, and reconnect with my body’s own wisdom.
She has helped me step into a more authentic career, one that feels aligned, grounded, and genuinely my own. I feel more confident, clear, and embodied than ever before. I’ve learned that all I need to be is me.”
Enter somatic coaching.
Somatic coaching is all about learning to live in the whole body, not just the mind. After all, it is through the body that we experience our lives: our thoughts, feelings, senses, actions, ways of relating to others – it all happens through the body – through our expressions, words, tone of voice, posture, the way we make contact (or don’t).
At the heart of it, somatic coaching helps you feel more alive, powerful, present, at choice, connected, and in action towards what you care about.
We move towards all of this over time by building somatic awareness (discovering what is it that you have embodied now), somatic practices (the tools that help you build new embodied skills), and somatic opening (the experience of your body letting go of the old to make way for the new).
“Somatic coaching was a powerful experience that helped me access insight and change at a level deeper than mindset alone. Christina helped me understand the patterns held in my body, the places where I was holding tension, resistance and even untapped strength. Through various embodied practices, I’ve become more centered, confident and able to meet challenges with more clarity and steadiness instead of stress or reactivity.” ~S
In somatic coaching you can expect:
New awareness
You will learn more about what you long for as well as the very wise conditioning you have that is trying to keep you safe. Your unconscious reactive patterning will be made conscious so that you eventually experience greater choice in how you want to respond under pressure.
Practices
It takes 300 repetitions of something to learn it and 3,000 repetitions to embody it. You will learn a range of new somatic practices that will support your transformation in the short and long term. The best results come when clients commit to new practices in between sessions.
Pathway
Transforming through the body has a process. In somatic coaching sessions you will learn about the intelligent design of your body and understand how to work with yourself to stay on the path toward what you care about.
Resourcing
In these sessions, you will also learn how to resource safety from inside yourself, how to find your ground and center, and consciously call forward your resilience. We will explore what it means to be resourced in connection with others and with life. Some of this work is inner and some of it is in connection/relationship.
Practice Client Packages
I am practicing towards becoming certified in somatic coaching with the Strozzi Institute for Somatics. I am taking on practice clients who are interested in this work and in partnering with me as I train. I have already completed 20 days of in-person somatic training and over 60 hours of practice coaching sessions.
Practice clients book a 10 session pack. Each session is 50 minutes. Sessions are spaced once per week or once every other week. Sessions are online or in-person if you live local to me. Sessions are recorded for the sole purposes of getting feedback from my mentor coach.
The investment is $75 per session (or $750 total for a pack of 10 calls). I offer a sliding scale to make this more accessible. If you are interested, your next step is to schedule a call with me to learn more.
Please note:
- This opportunity is not currently available to organizations or for sponsorship. In other words, I am requesting that practice clients pay for these sessions out of pocket.
- This is a limited time offer. Pricing for somatic coaching will go up after I complete my certification.
- Somatic work is deep and transformative. It can bring up old, sometimes painful memories of past experiences. Because I am not trained as a therapist, I’m not able to support someone actively healing from significant trauma or navigating the intensity of conditions like depression, anxiety, substance abuse, or addiction.
The way to know is to try.
