Second Story Counseling, Hudsonville, MI
Helping new moms step into parenthood with joy and helping little ones get on track and stay on track is my passion!
Your baby learns and grows through movement, which means every little push, reach and pull matters for mental, emotional and social development. This learning and growing begins pre-birth as your baby feels your movement, and it continues body first in the form of play…with you leading the way.
This means your nervous system health matters.
Maybe your pregnancy was filled with stress. Maybe the birth didn’t go as planned or maybe you experienced a traumatic birth. Maybe you and your baby are struggling to attach. Maybe you are struggling to find yourself in this new role. Maybe your body doesn’t feel like your own.
The answers, healing and freedom are in your body. And in your baby’s body.
“Soma” is the Greek word for living body. Somatic movement is gentle, therapeutic movement that helps you feel grounded, centered and alive inside your soma. Somatic movement repatterns your nervous system, resulting in improved mental focus, deeper relaxation and increased energy. There are no poses or prescribed “exercises” to learn because it’s about your soma thriving in your world.
Trauma-informed somatic movement therapy helps you recognize and work with blocked and limiting movement patterns. (We all have them!) These “stuck” patterns can typically be traced back to early fears, grief or trauma.
Are you and your baby ready to move from fight-flight to FREEDOM? It’s time to get back in your bodies!
