Somatic practice comes from the Greek word soma, meaning living body. It describes the art of reconnecting with our inner sensations, the quiet signals that show how we truly feel. Instead of focusing on thoughts or analysis, somatic healing works through the body itself. It helps calm the nervous system, release stored tension, and rebuild a sense of safety from within.

When I became seriously ill I threw myself into every healing tool I could find. I tried diets supplements yoga meditation energy work and even spiritual practices. For a while I thought if I just focused on positive thinking or stayed in the light enough everything would heal. But after some time I realized that this approach only scratches the surface. True healing is deeper than wellness trends and Instagram affirmations.
