TAOU Studios - 3122 W Cary St #220 Richmond, VA 23221

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Somatics with The Mind Body Project might look like play. We yawn, and nap, we laugh and jiggle, but beneath these playful exercises are deeply healing practices used for centuries by all cultures to bring about healing. We are not only connecting with other journeyers as we practice, but our deep felt sense that reminds us what it felt like to be a child; full of confidence, comfort and conviction. We remind ourselves that in spite of it all, true health is never truly lost.

You can expect some open questions and discussion after we practice a tool or at the end of the session, all sharing is welcomed and confidential. Sharing helps us learn how simultaneously unique and similar we are.

(Highly recommended for therapists, teachers, parents and nurses)

““This course was the highlight of an otherwise upside-down year of 2020. I learned simple ways to tune into myself and by practicing weekly I found it easier and easier to really listen to what my body needed, which has been a gift in trusting myself.””

A NOTE ON HEALING…

We’ll send out a brief intake form before the program, to get to know your background and needs.
Sometimes a little movement, a yawn, or a deep breath can release more than we may expect.
If at any time you feel tired or sense needing a break, please feel free to do so. When we start, you may get tired after only 10-15 minutes, please know that this is normal and expected.
During our time together please try and hydrate with water, rest deeply and know that everything you feel, comfortable or uncomfortable, is part of the healing process.
