READY TO THRIVE IN THE MIDST OF CHAOS?
Experience The Powerful Body-Mind Reset with Somatic Release
I-Edge BodyWise™ somatic release therapy uses powerful yet gentle movement and vagus nerve exercises to release tension and regulate the nervous system in order to promote somatic resilience. Mindful motion, vagus nerve techniques and breathwork coupled with guided meditation combine to help release stress patterns, activate relaxation, and rejuvenate your nervous system. This effective combination of techniques creates a powerful and deep mind-body connection that fosters physical-emotional balance and overall resilience that allows your life to thrive.
THE WORKSHOP EXPERIENCE
In this 2.5-hour workshop designed in two segments, you will learn ways to put your life into dynamic balance.
The first hour is centered on techniques designed to encourage deep relaxation, body awareness, stress release and vagus nerve balancing. We will use a combination of somatic relaxation and gentle release movement exercises, vagus nerve stress release, EMDR techniques, some Feldenkrais and restorative yoga, along with guided meditation.
This is followed by a mindfulness tea and short journaling break.
In hour two we focus on rejuvenation, invigoration and integration. We’ll use a combination of modalities incorporating rejuvenating somatics with the addition of some energizing Qigong and finishes with a second guided meditation tailored to promote a sense of rejuvenation, inspiration and wellbeing. The workshop concludes with some final brief exercises to reenforce the work you have done.
