“Somatic yoga for healing and recovery from Trauma and Anxiety" is a very gentle movement practice that helps to unwind the lasting effects of stress and overwhelm held deep within our bodies. 
 
When the body experiences trauma, the fascia - a connective tissue that wraps around all of our muscles, organs and bones, can tighten and harden as a protective response, creating patterns of pain and disconnection. This can show itself in the body in different ways such as a numbness, tight jaw, shoulders or lower back and in conditions like IBS, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. 
 
Through slow, mindful movement, guided breathing and listening to your body, somatic yoga helps signal to the nervous system that it's safe to let go of these holding patterns. 
 
This practise is especially supportive for anyone who feels stuck in cycles of tension, anxiety or shutdown. By calming the nervous system and freeing the fascial web, somatic yoga restores fluidity, ease and a grounded sense of presence. Over time this work helps the body let go of the tension caused by trauma allowing you to feel more at home in yourself. Join me to experience how gentle somatic movement can unlock profound release and support deep healing.
 
This class is gentle, restorative and suitable for all ages and genders although it is mat based so you will need to be comfortable getting down to the ground. Please bring a mat and a blanket if possible but we will have spares if you need them.  
 
We are passionate about being accessible to all so we operate on a suggested donation basis of just £10, to cover all costs. Please don't be put off if that's too much for you, just come along and pay what you can afford.  Maybe you could help us in other ways like telling people about this class, our project or sharing our posts. Message Pip on 07738014383 to book or book online at westernwellbeing.co.uk
