Nervous system support
***
The simple yet effective exercises that we practice during our 30 - 90 min sessions are integrating various Polyvagal Theory based exercises (offered by S. Rosenberg, D. Dana and others) with Experiential Anatomy and Basic Neurocellular Patterns - Developmental Movement (B.B. Cohen) practices.
The goal of the program is to enable you to develop new habits for self-regulation and develop the ability to connect with the embodied reality of your nervous system so that you can apply these new skills in your everyday life.
Sessions are available online as an individual practice with me or in a small group setting in Lagos, Portugal (contact me regarding the times and availability).
Somatic meditation
***
In this meditation practice you are fully in charge of your process. I only accompany you by offering the direction of journeying within your body, inviting awareness into your body tissues and inner processes. However, it is only an invitation and it is completely up to you to choose at what speed and how to travel.
Here the messages coming from conscious presence in the body are met with respect and a strong belief that only you know best what you need most right now. Together we create a safe space for you to hear yourself.
Sessions are weekly and donation based. We have a private Facebook group where members are welcome to share their process and experience.
Please contact me regarding the times and availability.
