How we work
When we work with clients, we are facilitating a process that engages the whole person, including the stories they carry that keep them fro integrating new strategies and prevent them from being present to themselves and the world around them.”
When clients establish more coherency in their bodies, they can change their stories.
Our work with clients is informed by the following principles:
- We live in bodies.
- Our bodies tell a story.
- The story of the body is as important as the story of the mind.
- Our mind-story dictates behaviour and self-concept.
- The body-story and the mind-story are interconnected.
- When the body-story and the mind-story are misaligned, our self-concept is informed by the mind-story alone.
- When our self-concept is disconnected from our body-story, we experience fragmentation, which may feel like anxiety, depression, dissociation, or “stuckness”.
- The SomaLiteracy process is a self-restoration process. Our work reconnects the mind and body relationship so that our self-concept is integrated with sensory reality.
