Bringing Somatics Into Your Workouts

Explore the intersection of fitness and somatics, and why workouts make a great practice ground for nervous system regulation.

We'll use the lens of a workout to explore the following somatic skills: 

• Feeling safer in the body: Utilizing orienting and resourcing to stabilize the nervous system's baseline activation.
• Discharging activation: Learning to release both immediate stress responses and stored tension. 
• Uncoupling activation and threat: Experience sympathetic nervous system activation (the energy used for drive and movement, as well as fight and flight) without the brain interpreting it as a danger or a problem.
• Settling and integration: Developing the ability to move out of high-activation states into a state of "enoughness," satisfaction, and physiological softness.

This Webinar is free to attend this time around, and I look forward to sharing it with you. It leads into the Somatic Workouts I'm developing inside of the Mind & Mountain Training Membership this winter (2026/27). 

If you're interested in doing some pre-work (not required!) or learning more before the class, I'd recommend checking out this podcast episode to get a good idea of what we'll be going over and practicing together.

I hope to see you there!
