Leah summed it up after class:
“Somatics is like a massage—but from the inside out.”

Our Somatic Community Class runs every Thursday at 10am at the Palm Beach Aquatic & Community Centre. It’s a gentle, floor-based movement practice that helps you release tension, reset posture, and leave feeling calm, relaxed, and lighter in your body.

We’re a friendly group (coffee afterwards is part of the ritual!) and your first class is free—so if you’ve been curious, this is the perfect time to give it a try.

Exhausted all day but wide awake at night?
Your body and mind might be stuck in a cycle.

When your muscles hold tension, they send signals to your brain to stay alert. And when your brain is stressed, it tells your muscles to tighten up. It’s a feedback loop that keeps both body and mind switched on — long after you want to sleep.

This is where Somatic Movement is different. Instead of just stretching your muscles or trying to “switch off” your mind, Somatics works through the nervous system — retraining your brain and body to release tension TOGETHER.

The result? Relaxed muscles. A calmer mind. Better sleep. And it doesn’t take much — just 10 minutes of gentle, mindful movement before bed can help you drift off more easily and wake feeling refreshed.

✨ Try it for yourself inside the Manipura Body Online Studio — start your 2-week free trial today.

Sleep can feel tricky in menopause — your body’s changing, your mind’s busy, and rest doesn’t always come easily.

That’s where a gentle bedtime routine can make all the difference. This short Somatic movement sequence helps you soften your body, release tension, and prepare your body for deep, restful sleep.

As you slow down, you may notice your breath deepen, your muscles relax, and your whole system begin to settle. It’s like telling your body: it’s okay to let go now.

Try this before bed tonight and see how it feels. 🌙

Waiting for the “perfect” time to start? The truth is — there’s no perfect time.

Your body responds to the little things you do consistently. Even the smallest step toward self-care can shift how you feel and move.

Somatic movement meets you where you are — gentle, simple, and effective. Start today, and notice the difference.

10-Minute Hip & Back Release
A gentle Somatic Movement practice to release tension and improve mobility. These exercises focus on hips and lower back — helping you notice which muscles are contracting and which are letting go.

Somatic Movement (pandiculation) follows three steps:
👉 Contract and notice
👉 Long, slow release
👉 Rest
👉 Repeat

This simple cycle helps your nervous system retrain your muscles to let go of chronic tension, so you can move with more comfort and ease.

✨ Want more guidance? Inside the Somatic Movement Online Studio, you’ll find full-length classes for hip release, back mobility, and whole-body ease — with step-by-step guidance to support you.

Thursday really is my favourite day

I start the morning with my own Somatic Movement practice — a few quiet moments to release tension and reset. Then it’s time for our 10 AM Community Somatic Movement Class at Palm Beach, where we always finish with coffee and conversation with the most wonderful group of women.

In the afternoon, I record new Somatic Movement practices for the Membership, so you can enjoy the same release and reset from home.

Want to join the fun?

Mental health is something that touches all of us—often when we least expect it. Last year was a tough one for our family, and this cause is deeply personal. I’m walking for Beyond Blue because I know how powerful it is to feel supported, heard, and not alone.

I’d love your support as I embark on this 30km walk organised by —whether it’s a donation, sharing this post, or simply checking in with someone you care about. Let’s keep the conversation going and make help-seeking feel normal (because it should be).

And yes… I’m 100% dreaming of the spa, sauna and of course a massage at the finish line!

Ever feel like you’re just going through the motions?

It’s so easy to slip into autopilot—doing all the things, ticking off the list, moving without really feeling.

When that happens, we lose touch with what’s actually going on inside. We stop noticing the subtle signals—the tension creeping in, the way we’re holding ourselves, the habits that slowly build into discomfort or dysfunction.

From the inside, it’s not the body we sense—it’s the experience of being in the body.
The sensations, the movement, the internal feedback that tells us where we are and how we’re moving.
But if we’re too distracted to notice it… we disconnect.

That’s why Somatic movement matters.
It gives you a moment to pause. To listen. To come back home to your body.

Not to fix or stretch or push—just to notice. To sense. To self-correct.
That’s where real change starts.
