Somatic healing and Meditation changed my life

"All while struggling on and off with anxiety and depression, the most transformative realization I learned was that, by practicing body awareness and Somatic Experiencing,

I no longer suffered”

At 18, my first panic attack marked the beginning of a long struggle with intrusive thoughts and a newly OCD diagnosis.

After years of traditional talk therapy, I began to lose hope of ever feeling like my true self again.

Then I started meditating and learned how to process & release stuck trauma in the body.

Now I live a life free of anxiety and depression.
