Lição 1

A Gentle Return

This opening session invites you to arrive in your body, exactly as you are, gently. With an emphasis on safety, softness, and slowing down, you’ll be guided through a grounding practice designed to ease you into the rest of the course. Whether you're new to somatic work or simply returning to yourself after a busy season, this lesson provides a compassionate starting point.

Lição 2

Noticing From The Inside

In this practice, you’ll be invited to gently shift your attention inward — to notice sensations, movements, and inner signals without needing to change or fix anything. This is about cultivating presence and awareness from the inside out, at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

Lição 3

Breath As An Anchor

In this practice, we explore the breath as a gentle, ever-present anchor — something you can return to when the world feels too loud or the body feels unsettled. No need to change or control it — just notice how your breath moves through you, moment by moment. This is about softening into presence, one inhale at a time.

Lição 4

Touch As Connection

In this session, we gently explore the grounding potential of touch — whether that's placing a hand on the body, noticing textures, or tuning into contact with the floor or chair. Touch can bring us back to the here-and-now, offering a sense of containment, connection, and comfort — especially when words fall short.

Lição 5

Feeling Without Drowning

In today’s session, we explore a gentle practice known as pendulation — the skill of moving between what feels difficult and what feels steady. Rather than diving into overwhelming sensations, we learn how to build emotional tolerance by noticing, shifting, and returning in small, manageable steps. This is a practice of pacing, permission, and choice.

Lição 6

Seeing With Kind Eyes

Today’s practice invites you to meet your body with a softer gaze. Not to love every part — but to notice what happens when you shift the lens, even slightly. Through a simple visualisation, you’ll explore how it feels to be seen with warmth and compassion, and offer your body the kind of presence it may have been yearning for all along.

Lição 7

Gathering The Threads

In this final practice, we gently gather the threads of everything we've explored so far. This is not a conclusion, but a continuation — a reminder that your body is a place you can return to again and again. With curiosity, care, and slowness, we pause to notice what’s shifted, and what still needs tending.
