Your Voice Is Welcome Here

Your voice is a PART of the sacred expression of who you are. Not just your words, but your sounds. We have all been repressed, unable to fully feel or share our truest emotions. It started in your family and is supported by our culture to not know how to express ourselves.

When we hold things in, it creates Trauma in our nervous systems.

If you struggle with:
-speaking up
-asking for what you want
-not knowing what you want or need
-feeling stuck in your life
-doing what others want to keep the peace even when you don't want to
-unable to hear your gut intuition
-going round and round analyzing things and still not able to know what your gut or heart wants

Then you have stuck stress energy.

I know, because I've been repressing myself forever. And my clients all have different versions of not being able to be angry, sad, or say what they think or feel. And now, they're coming to Somatic Therapy to find these repressed, ignored, and forgotten parts of us. These parts are yearning to be seen and heard and were left behind when we were young because it wasn't safe to express ourselves.

This is what makes us feel anxious and depressed.

Digesting these repressed emotions can come in the form of movement, visualization, and making sounds. It's done very gently and slowly. This expression, with an empathic witness (aka support), helps to move stuck stress or trauma in the body.

I'm remembering back to 7 years ago when I tried to do voice lessons with a teacher. I literally broke down in tears and couldn't stop crying for the majority of the session. I didn't have the capacity to handle the amount of stuck stress in my system let alone the grief of not being able to share myself fully for so long. After years of slowly working towards it, I can sing again and it feels really really good. I'm still crying at times and that is part of it. I'm slowly finding all the parts of myself through this somatic work.

Your expression may be different from mine but we are all meant to express ourselves and share our WHOLE selves with the world. That's what healing is, becoming more you.

Your emotions, expressions, and voice are all welcome here.
