Relational Somatics in Plant Medicine Communities
At its roots, somatics is inherently about relationships; to our bodies, our self, to other. The very nature of what often calls us to work with plant medicines is sacred and nuanced. When we couple this intimate work with the dynamics of forces and folks, often unfamiliar, it can open us to experiences that can be incredibly regulating and healing, as well hold the potential to be overwhelming and retraumatizing. The Somatics of Belonging is an invitation of self-discovery in awareness, autonomy and safety within connection.
Join us in this live, online workshop, led by PMP integration coach Faegann Harlow, for an experiential exploration of foundational somatic elements that support the navigation of communal environments. Learn how to notice, name and navigate relational experiences with greater awareness and somatic clarity through guided embodied inquiry.
You’ll have the opportunity to:
Experience gentle, guided somatic prompts crafted to enhance somatic awareness..
Explore your body's unique experience and needs in communal environments.
Learn practical tools to locate relative safety in times of dysregulation or overwhelm.
Develop a language; cognitively and somatically to offer greater awareness and context to your experiences in relational environments.
This workshop explores some of the seen and unseen that may exist in plant medicine and psychedelic spaces, naming foundational elements of somatics to support our sense of safety, connection and belonging. It’s an opportunity to give language and awareness to the bodies’ experience in the less tangible exchanges and engage a sense of empowerment through awareness, autonomy, agency.
What to Expect:
This 2.5 hour workshop is an experiential offering, held in a small group, intentional container.
A supportive, non-judgemental space to explore the somatics of belonging.
Conceptual aids to offer language to relational skills for sensitive folks.
An introduction to somatic practices to locate resources and relative safety.
