Nicole Siegel

Nicole Siegel is a relationship and intimacy coach, somatic bodyworker and naturalist based in Austin, Texas. She created the Body Compass Method, a body-based approach to desire, intimacy and the relationships we build our lives around. Her work starts from one belief: nothing about the body is broken. When desire fades, sleep won't come, or a body stays braced long after the danger has passed, it is responding wisely to the conditions around it. Change the conditions, and the body opens in its own time, the way a seed waits for rain. Nicole works with individuals and couples on low desire, pelvic pain, disconnection, shame, and the long, quiet season so many partners slip into. She sees our relationships as the blueprint for everything else: our families, our communities, and how we care for the earth. That is why she treats this work as more than personal. Her meditations on Insight Timer include body scans, nervous system practices and somatic rest for anyone ready to come home to their body. They are slow, poetic and rooted in nature, and they ask nothing of you except that you arrive.
