Back To Your Body: Restore Balance To Your Nervous System

Reconnect with your body and tune into how you are feeling and where you are holding tensions in this regulating somatic session. Back to Your Body – Calm Your Nervous System & Reconnect With Yourself Join us for an in-person somatic (working with the body) workshop designed to help you step out of overthinking and reconnect with your body. Through gentle guided body practices, breathwork (for different nervous system states), introductory qigong, and a restorative sound bath, you’ll learn how to notice the body’s signals, release built-up stress, and create a greater sense of safety, calm, and emotional balance. If you often feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in your head, this workshop offers practical tools to help you slow down, feel more grounded, and begin listening to what your body has been trying to tell you. Imagine waking up without your nervous system already on high alert. Many of us spend our lives stuck in survival mode - overthinking, people-pleasing, feeling anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or disconnected from ourselves. We understand why we feel this way, yet nothing seems to change. That's because regulation isn't something we think our way into. It's something we experience through the body. This immersive workshop will introduce you to practical, evidence-informed somatic practices that help your nervous system feel safer, calmer, and more resilient. Whether you're navigating stress, burnout, anxiety, past trauma, or simply want to feel more connected to yourself, you'll leave with practical tools you can use long after the workshop ends. What you'll experience Throughout the afternoon, you'll be gently guided through a series of practices designed to help your body move from survival into safety. Everything is taught at a pace that honours your nervous system. There is no pressure or need to share personal experiences or revisit difficult memories. You'll experience: • Regulation practices that start with creating safety rather than pushing harder • Gentle somatic techniques to reconnect with your body • Breathwork to regulate your nervous system • Introduction to some energy and qigong exercises to restore balance • A deeply relaxing sound bath to integrate the experience During the workshop, you'll learn? • How your nervous system works and how to recognise different nervous system states. • How to reconnect with your body through felt sense awareness and gentle somatic practices. • How to create a greater sense of safety using grounding, orienting, and resourcing techniques. • How to use pendulation to gently move between safety and activation and begin expanding your nervous system’s capacity. • How to choose breathwork for different nervous system states, rather than assuming one breathing technique works for everyone. • Practical tools you can take into everyday life to support greater resilience, connection, and nervous system flexibility. You'll leave with • A better understanding of your nervous system • Practical techniques to calm yourself when stress takes over • Greater connection with your body • Increased emotional capacity • More confidence in responding to difficult emotions • A sense of calm, clarity, and groundedness Is this for you?
