Highlights
Somatic meditation to calm stress and emotional reactivity
Guided by Celia Roberts, founder of BIYOME
Open to all levels — no meditation experience needed
Details
When stress lives in the body, thinking our way out of it rarely works. This half-day retreat works at the level of the nervous system — using somatic meditation, breath and body awareness to help rewire stress patterns and emotional reactivity from the inside out. Across the morning you'll learn how to settle your physiology, build steadiness and focus, and then gently explore wider states of consciousness and presence. It's practical, grounded and deeply restful. What you'll explore: • Somatic and body-based meditation practices • Breath techniques to downshift the nervous system • Building resilience, focus and inner stability • Exploring expanded states of awareness and presence • Simple practices to keep using at home This is one of BIYOME's monthly meditation retreats. It's open to everyone — beginners, regular meditators and BIYOME students (it also counts towards CPD06 and our 330/660/1000hr Meditation Teacher Training). Time: 9:30am – 12:30pm Teacher: Celia Roberts
