Happy Spring Equinox! Thank you so much for everyone who joined our little garden fire gathering last night to welcome the spring ☀️ We set intentions for the returning light and new growth by throwing sacred herb bundles of lavender, sage, rosemary & pine in the fire.

What exactly is somatic yoga 💗
What is somatic yoga, and how can it help heal trauma? For most people, yoga creates a safe space for them to de-stress, slow down and reconnect the body and mind, so it’s no surprise that somatic yoga is helping people deal with their unresolved trauma too.

“You can’t heal anxiety, which by definition is overthinking, with MORE thinking.
You must switch to a FEELING perspective.
When you find yourself in compulsive worry, SWITCH your attention from your mind to your body.”
The good nees is that Somatic yoga & movement are great ways to practice this 💗
