Somatic Exercises To Soothe Your Nervous System
With Miriam AmaviWe live in a fast-paced world that expects us to constantly be productive, push through our limits, and do it with a smile. However, many of us feel exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected from ourselves. Then we tell ourselves that we are too sensitive, or that something is wrong with us, because everyone else seems to be coping better than we are. But the reason many of us feel this way is not because we are not trying hard enough. It's because our nervous system has been carrying more than it was ever meant to carry on its own. So in this course, I’ll share simple somatic exercises that help signal safety to your nervous system and bring more regulation and ease into your life. Together, we'll explore practices that calm stress and anxiety, release tension held in the body, gently bring energy back when you're feeling exhausted or shut down, and help you navigate difficult emotions with more capacity and self-compassion. You'll also learn how your nervous system works, how to recognize different nervous system states, and how to choose the practices that best support you in each moment. The exercises in this course are simple, practical, and easy to integrate into daily life. Most take only a few minutes and can be used whenever you notice yourself feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or emotionally flooded. Together, we will create moments of safety in a world that often asks too much of us and learn the fundamental skill of listening and responding to your body rather than overriding it. I am so glad you are here!

Meet your Teacher
Miriam Amavi is a trauma-sensitive somatic teacher, podcaster, membership host, and certified in Applied Polyvagal Theory in Yoga for Trauma Recovery. She is currently completing her training in Somatic Stress Release with Scott Lyons at the Embody Lab. For many years she struggled with anxiety and chronic symptoms, accompanied by the belief that something was wrong with her. Only through somatic work and her deep interest in the nervous system did she realize that her symptoms and emotions were not enemies but expressions of a body trying to protect her. She learned to understand the language of her body and to relate to stress and intense emotions in a way that does not overwhelm but connects. This led to a deep and loving relationship with herself and a noticeable reduction in anxiety and physical discomfort. Today she supports others on this path with warmth and compassion, helping them build more capacity in their nervous system and process emotions somatically without needing to fix or push themselves.
