Before we learnt (or maybe we didn’t learn this) to regulate ourselves using language and self talk, we likely had others that helped us regulate through touch and other means such as food, warmth etc. In this class you’ll reconnect with that part of you that remembers how to soothe using self touch and the felt sense. When this class is delivered in studios it gets great feedback and people tend to relax deeply.
Physically this class focusses on some of the larger body parts e.g. legs, belly, chest and is suitable for all levels.
