Imagine laughing without a voice, grief without tears, nervous butterflies without a stomach... Right here, right now, we are alive in our bodies, experiencing the world in all its joys and pain. Yet sometimes our body can be a stranger to us, or maybe an opponent that we fight against. We may be baffled by its needs or the things it does. It can often seem that our bodies have a mind of their own. Somatic (body) therapists believe that all life experiences are embodied: that your body holds your emotional history just as much as your mind does. The stresses of your life can get locked deep into your muscles, and your behaviour can be determined by that locked-in tension - as though your body were programmed to behave in a certain way, whether or not you want it. This is referred to as "body-armouring." Deep bodywork seeks to unlock patterns of armouring, bring mind and body increasingly into harmony and help people discover a new way of being at one with themselves. The term 'bodymind' is used to refer to the fundamental oneness of the self. Here at BodyZest I offer groups and workshops for personal self-development and bodymind awareness. Groups are open to all. Professionals engaged in continuing professional development (CPD) are also very welcome. If you looking for one-to-one psychotherapeutic bodywork or Pulsing, please refer to my BodyTherapy site. |
