Grief in Motion: A Somatic Workshop for Moving Through Hidden Loss 

 

In a society that often stigmatizes the expression of grief, many individuals carry hidden losses that weigh heavily on their hearts and bodies. The holiday season can intensify these feelings, making family dynamics and emotional challenges even more complex. Join "Grief in Motion," a somatic workshop designed to help you explore and release the emotions associated with loss that may be lingering beneath the surface.

 

This interactive session will provide a safe and nurturing space to:

 

- Identify Hidden Loss: Discover the various forms of loss that impact you, from the death of loved ones to the loss of dreams, relationships, or even aspects of yourself. Understanding these hidden losses can be the first step toward healing.

 

- Challenge Stigmas: Engage in safe and confidential sharing about the societal pressures that discourage vulnerability and emotional expression. This fosters a sense of community and understanding, reminding you that you're not alone in your grief.

 

- Understand Health Effects: Learn about the physical and mental health implications of suppressing emotions. Research shows that unexpressed grief can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, autoimmune diseases, and even cancer. By addressing these emotions, you can enhance your overall well-being.

 

-  Explore the Nervous System: Gain insights into what happens in the nervous system during grief. Understand how grief can trigger the fight-or-flight response, leading to feelings of overwhelm, dissociation, or numbness. Discussion will cover how somatic practices can help regulate the nervous system and promote healing.

 

- Gain Tools for Complex Relationships: Learn strategies for navigating complex or even toxic relationships during the holidays, including techniques for reinforcing personal boundaries essential for self-preservation.

 

-  Embodied Movement: Utilize somatic practices to help release stuck emotions and reconnect with your body. Through guided movement, breathwork, and mindfulness, you’ll learn to honor your grief and facilitate healing.

 

- Transform Numbing into Awareness: Explore the ways you may numb your feelings and develop tools to cultivate awareness and presence, allowing for a more authentic experience of grief.

 

Whether navigating personal grief or seeking to support others, this workshop offers valuable insights and practices to help you move through loss with compassion and resilience.

With learning and practices from multiple revolutionary approaches, SoulFly Therapy bridges the gap between healing arts, mind-body psychology, and neuroscience using the Phoenix Rising Method™ (as discovered and presented by Michael Lee & inspired by yogic philosophy, Buddhist psychology and Carl Rogers), Somatic Practice (the work of Irene Lyon inspired by Peter Levine and Kathy Kain), healing trauma through the body (as written about by Bessel van der Kolk), and The Polyvagal Theory (as discovered and presented by Stephen Porges).

 

No experience in yoga, alternative therapies, or being particularly flexible is necessary. All bodies are welcome and accepted.

"What is this and what am I doing here? Is this a yoga class? Those were the questions I kept asking myself. You may be asking the same.
I went to Sarah’s classes despite my internal resistance because my deeper Self longed to be free- free of trauma, trapped emotion, trapped pain and trapped anger.
Sarah taught me to listen to my body and pay attention to what my body was trying to tell me. Sarah created space for me to change through movement and stillness. Her sessions are nonjudgemental. There is no expectation. It is a safe place to be present with yourself, to experience the now, to be who you really are without pretension.
IF you are searching for a deeper connection to yourself, your family, your community -Sarah’s classes will give you that.... and so much more love, space and presence in this world.
Are you up for something new? Do you deeply desire a life changing experience? Please try Sarah Classes. I did and my life is so much better for it!
