'De Belgeonne isn't the woo-woo warrior I'd expected - she is grounded and straight-talking, with a deep, authoritative voice' Roisin Kelly, Sunday Times
'Nahid is a wizard at unwinding and relaxing' Sara Pascoe
Our increasingly frantic lifestyles make it difficult to slow down and listen to what our bodies are telling us, paying attention only when they are broken. Soothe brings you back to balance, explaining the workings of your nervous system and helping you restore calm by physically releasing held stresses. Somatic educator Nahid de Belgeonne will teach you how to:
Cultivate interoception, the crucial body-sensing ability
Breathe to maximise your oxygen intake for improved body function
Move from your bones for an integrated mind and body
Understand and use the healing power of touch
Combine rest and action using your circadian and ultradian rhythms
Nourish your nervous system with food and nature
Deeply connect with yourself, others and the ground beneath your feet
A freeing and revolutionary approach to bodily tranquility, Soothe will completely change the way you breathe, move and care for your overworked nervous system.
