You’ve probably heard that memories are stored in the body. And that smiling can make you happy. (That you can try right now!) In this mini-class, we’ll explore how present-time attention to your body and sensations promotes physical and emotional healing and deepens self-understanding. (Please note, somatic therapy is a generic term for modalities that engage subtle attention to the body.  It is different from Hanna Somatics, a specific re-patterning process.)
Bodywork as a path of self-discovery and self-connection drew Sara Sunstein to it 30 years ago. Specializing in pain and bodymind issues such as trauma and “just not feeling right,” she has trained in massage, Ortho-Bionomy®, psychology, and with pioneers of body-based psychology, including Peter Levine and Don Hanlon Johnson. Sara maintains a practice in downtown Arcata.
