Somatic Movement

Feel – Move – Touch - Be Happy

SOMATIC MOVEMENT was developed to make inner alignment, a meditative mind, health and bodily freedom easily accessible to everyone.
SOMATIC MOVEMENT encourages people to listen to the messages from within the body and to discover their idiosyncratic movement vocabulary.
SOMATIC MOVEMENT emphasises on the mindful and compassionate perception of bodily processes and movements.
The somatic dialogue, the sensing as question and movement expression as answer enhances self-organisation and development of a person.
By the means of SOMATIC MOVEMENT we encounter the wisdom of the lively experience, which results from an "attention to" instead of "control" or "mastering" of processes of life.
SOMATIC MOVEMENT is a discovery by nature.

It is about the Quality:
A somatic movement must a be performed slowly and consciously, with our complete internal focus and attention. Mindful and compassionate attention is the key to the learning process. Somatic movement is exploratory in nature. Even when we practice a somatic movement with the intention of improving our posture or movement in aspecific way, we still need to be focused on the internal experience of the movement rather than on the end result. Focusing on the experience and process rather than the end result can be a difficult concept for many people to grasp. Practicing somatic movements is quite different than doing situps or pushups;
it’s not about the quantity, it’s about the quality. Any movement can be a somatic movement if it is performed slowly, consciously, and with the intention of focusing on the internal experience of the movement.

SOMATIC MOVEMENT  is not only healthy for our bodies, but can also help to balance the nervesystem and assist in the healing of small or big mental and emotional injuries.
When our needs are not met, or when we get emotionally injured from the outside we develop creative and individual patterns of survival. When these injuries are very big or ongoing for a long time and cannot be resolved our nerve system learns that this is the normal state of being and can even be primed to stay in this state of being. To secure our safety and survival we often use the extrem reactions of our outward and active nervesystem, the sympathetic nervesystem. These extem reaction of the sympathetic nerve system are described as ‘fight, flight, freeze or fawn’. As the traumatic event was a very strong event, our system learned it very well. this is why the memory of the old event can be stronger and more “real” than the reality of the hear and now.
In addition it is possible that we also learned, in situations where we got injured, not to express our connected feelings as doing so can also be dangerous, so we learned to store them somewhere in our bodies.
Little outward things can trigger us into ‘fight, flight, freeze or fawn’ or into old stored emotions.
This is very stressful and exhausting and can cause physical ailments and mental suffering as well as difficulties in our relationships to other people in work and private life. These outward patterns work until they do not work anymore because of a change in the circumstances.
Inward sensing is changing our system from outward to inward, inward sensing is changing us from being in the symphatetic nerve system to being in the parasympathetic nervesystem.
Inward sensing can help us to come into the reality of hear and now and find a safe and healing space for resting and digesting. 
In SOMATIC MOVEMENT  we sense our body from the inside with our proprioceptive sense, and we sense our movement from the inside with our kinestetic sense.

SOMATIC MOVEMENT  is also guiding us into feeling our old and new emotions and alows for direct expression of these emotions in movement. When we are allowed to feel and express our old stored emotions we do not need to hide and store them anymore in our bodies, we can free ourselfs from those emotions.
SOMATIC MOVEMENT can help to balance the nervesystem and assist in the healing of small or big mental and emotional injuries.
