Awaken the wisdom of your body
Welcome to a journey where your body leads the way to healing and transformation. I'm here to guide you along a path where we embrace the creativity to design our lives, and the wisdom of our bodies to lead us to wholeness.
Why the body?
'Soma,' meaning 'the living body known from within,' underscores our approach, focusing on experiencing wholeness through mind-body integration. Trauma can create a disconnect, leaving us feeling alienated from our own bodies. Somatic work acts as a powerful path to healing, leveraging the deep connection between body and mind.
Through somatic techniques, you'll learn to sense and regulate your physiology, cultivating internal resources and compassionate self-awareness. This journey invites you into a deeper relationship with your body, offering time and space to unwind trauma and restore well-being, guiding you from disconnection to a state of integrated healing.

Working with Maria has been truly transformational. Every single say, I utilize the skills that I learned in the Ignite & Embody Program and it has been life-changing. I’ve been able to slow down and attend more to myself while diving deeper into my journey towards developing more self-love.
