Experiencing Relief Amidst Too Much

A Somatic Approach to Feeling Better Without “Fixing” Your Feelings

Have you noticed how trying to make yourself feel better can sometimes leave you feeling worse? More stressed, anxious, and irritable.

What if you could experience more ease, even when life feels messy and hard? This course offers a gentle way to be with uncomfortable feelings so they can shift naturally and you can feel better.

No pushing. No forcing. And definitely no fixing.

In this introductory series, you’ll learn simple, practical skills to help you …

Have your feelings without getting swept up in them or weighed down by them

Be with those relentless inner critics, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence

Savor pleasant moments, so you can feel more relaxed and refreshed—without having to push the uncomfortable stuff away

Those uncomfortable feelings we often label as “negative” are there for a reason. They’re valuable! They help us recognize what matters and what’s missing. They let us know when something doesn’t feel right.

When we try to push those feelings away or dim them down, we risk missing out on valuable information—information that can actually help us live more fully and authentically.

In this course, you’ll learn how to be with your feelings, so you can experience more clarity and get some relief. Even when the situation around you remains the same.

And the best part? This is a gentle, body-oriented process that actually feels good!

We’ll meet each week for an hour over 3 weeks.

  • Each class will offer a mix of teachings, guided exercises and discussions.

  • Live attendance is encouraged but not required. You can choose to attend live or go at your own pace.

  • Each class builds on the previous one. So, attending the classes in order—or listening to them in order will help you get the most from this course.

  • All registered participants will receive access to our private course platform, where you can engage in discussions, access audio recordings of each class, and download handouts and presentation slides.

Course Structure …

The creation of this course is rooted in my training as both a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (SEP) and Certified Inner Relationship Focusing Professional & Trainer.

No prior experience with SE and IRF is required. All that’s needed is curiosity — an openness to noticing your experience just as it is.

Somatic Experiencing®  is a body-oriented approach to healing trauma and stress disorders developed by Peter A Levine, PhD.

Inner Relationship Focusing is an experiential, body-oriented process of self-awareness and emotional healing developed by Ann Weiser Cornell and Barbara McGavin.

As a result of my SE training, I bring a unique trauma-informed approach to teaching Inner Relationship Focusing courses.
