Dark Night Of The Soul Somatic Prayer For Healing

Through this prayer, Ana transforms spirituality into somatic repair. She reclaims prayer not as petition, but as participation — a way for survivors to feel inhabited by life again.

Her words teach:
- Healing is not separation from the body. It’s the body becoming home for the divine again.
- The repetition — move through me, walk through me, rest in me — mirrors the natural rhythm of the body’s regulation cycle: expansion, contraction, rest.

Listeners experience calm not through religious belief, but through entrainment — the nervous system settles into the rhythm of Ana’s voice.

She’s teaching that prayer can be a nervous system practice, not just a spiritual one.

In solitude with me.

Let my heart find the light in your embrace.

Let my head leans onto you and let my soul recovers in your love.

And let it always be you and your path.

Reviews

This took me to a safe, calm and peaceful space. Thank you for such a wonderful and helpful practice. The length was ideal for my current challenge to remain still for long periods. The pace allowed me to repeat them slowly with intention. In this dark night I find myself in…this practice felt like a blessing to find. 🙏🏼

Thank you so much.
