Talking is great – and moving from story and narrative into the bodily experience and allowing the body to do what it does best can be a massive aid to healing and transformation. Gentle somatic release processes and deep stretch techniques can allow the nervous system to let go – not forcing a great cathartic release, which can just be more triggering, but working so the body has space and capacity to release, unwind, and gently change its state. Henny gently guides you through movement and breath sequences that allow the body to come to the place to start to transmute and integrate locked-in or frozen stress responses.
Different parts of the body store different feelings and processes, which can get stuck and blocked. Getting to know where you hold tension or stress or feel blocked and introducing gentle practices can greatly assist in regulation and gradual release. This is not about Instagram-style cathartic release, but safe steps to nervous system regulation and mobilisation.
