Intro Session

Service Description

Come say hello! This FREE 30 minute session offers an opportunity to explore your questions about Embodied Healing and gain a felt sense of what a trauma sensitive yoga session is like! WHAT IS EMBODIED HEALING?: Embodied Healing utilizes gentle yoga shapes to practice being at home in your body and in the presence of God's grace after trauma. All who wish to reestablish a mind-body-soul connection are welcome- including those who are living with chronic illness, processing grief, or experiencing symptoms of past trauma. Embodied Healing sessions are informed by my certifications in Spiritual Direction and also Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) which is recognized as an evidence-based, adjunctive treatment for complex trauma and PTSD. ABOUT THIS SESSION: The first part of session will be spent getting to know each other and addressing your questions about trauma sensitive yoga. The remaining time will offer a glimpse of an Embodied Healing session, beginning with a brief grounding exercise and followed by gentle movement. Within each shape, space will be held for you to practice being present to physical sensations and making choices based on how you feel in your body. Over time, this practice has the ability to reestablish a connection between mind, body and soul which is often fragmented by overwhelming experiences like trauma. Invitations to notice your spirit and connect with God can also be included in your sessions, if you choose. The session will close with an opportunity to journal about your experience and offer feedback. Note that all Embodied Healing sessions are private, confidential and your trauma story will not be discussed. So that you have a safe place to process things that may come up during your practice, it is highly recommended that you are under the care of a mental health practitioner while pursuing Embodied Healing. PROPS & THINGS: For this session, you might like to have a space where you can explore movement, a yoga mat, 2 blocks, 2 folded blankets and 2 folded towels. Optionally, you might also like to have a standard yoga bolster- if you would like to invest in one. You're also welcome to bring a list of questions to this 1st session. COST: This FREE intro session is offered to those who are new to Embodied Healing, only.
