Sometimes, it gets locked in survival mode.
Shallow breath, stiff muscles.
Physical symptoms that won't heal.
Always in a rush, never quite arriving.
Feeling trapped, restless, worried, unheard, angry or indecisive.
Self-sabotage.
The list goes on...
Somatic therapy gets you out of survival.
It opens up the breathing and relaxes the body.
This helps you feel more grounded, feel less overwhelmed, and move out of patterns and tensions that have been holding you back.
My name is Claus, and this is what Manuvision, the somatic therapy school that treated and trained me, has been researching and teaching for over 25 years.
I work in Amsterdam, Brussels and Gent, speaking English, Dutch, Spanish and rusty French.
