Mindful Movements Meditation w\/ Gentle Somatic Movements

Self-healing with Mindful Movements: Each class will begin and end with short, guided meditations with the bulk of the class spent on slow, gentle movements. Learn how to self-heal by listening to the messages our body is communicating to us. Then create new and supportive patterns of thoughts and movements to help relieve physical and emotional aches and pains. Healing is best reached by addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the self!

Somatic movement is based on the idea that the body and mind are interconnected and that physical tension and stress can manifest as emotional or psychological issues.

The practice involves slow, gentle movements that are designed to help individuals become more aware of their bodily sensations and movements.

Somatic movement can be particularly helpful for individuals who are dealing with chronic pain, stress, anxiety, or other physical or emotional issues.
