STARTS TONIGHT: Somatic Unwind ✨
Still time to join us in-studio or online via Zoom (from home in your comfies).

If you’re not looking for another New Year plan—just a way to land—this is for you.

Somatic Unwind is a gentle, trauma-informed movement class designed to help your system:
• downshift stress without forcing relaxation
• soften tension patterns with slow, doable movement
• build emotional intelligence through body awareness
• support a more regulated, reorganized nervous system (aka: more capacity, more choice)

🕕 Tonight 6:00–7:30pm
📍 In-person at the studio + Zoom option

Come as you are. You don’t have to be flexible. You don’t have to “push through.”
You just have to arrive.

You don’t need more willpower in 2026.
You don’t need louder affirmations.
You don’t need to “try harder.”

You need safety. Even in small doses.

Because when your nervous system doesn’t feel safe, nothing sticks.
Not the plan. Not the mindset. Not the morning routine.

When your body senses safety, you get access to things motivation can’t force:
• clearer thinking
• digestion that actually digests
• rest that restores
• connection without bracing
• movement without pushing

And here’s the challenging part (said with love):
Healing isn’t getting rid of your survival adaptations.
Fight/flight/freeze/shutdown/fawn aren’t “bad habits.” They’re protection.

The goal was never to empty your body of its strategies.
It was to create enough safety that your nervous system has more options.
More capacity. More range. More choice.

Not fixing what’s broken.
Trusting what’s wise.

Try this right now (2 minutes):
Grab a blanket. Wrap it around your shoulders and give a gentle squeeze.
Move it to upper arms—squeeze. Chest—squeeze. Hips—squeeze. Knees—squeeze.
With each squeeze: slow exhale.
(Keep it soft. Your body gets to choose.)

SOMATIC UNWIND ✨
Jan 8 – Feb 26, 2026 | Thursdays 6:00–7:30 PM (Calgary)

If your nervous system has been running hot…
or you feel tired-but-wired…
or your body is carrying stress like it’s part of your job description—this series is for you.

Somatic Unwind is an 8-week mindful movement class designed to help you downshift through the body. Expect gentle, guided movement, lots of options, and intentional pauses so your system can actually absorb what you’re doing.

This isn’t a workout.
It’s a weekly practice of reorganization, regulation, and real rest.

You’ll practice:
• slow somatic movement to reorganize patterns of holding
• breath + body awareness for stress relief
• nervous-system-friendly strengthening (without bracing)
• rest + integration (because that’s where change lands)

Sliding scale (choose what fits):
Solidarity Rate: $250
True Cost Rate: $200
Accessibility Rate: $160
Karma spots available — if finances are a barrier, message me. Access matters.

Spots are limited. Register via my website.
(And if you’re not sure if it’s a fit, send me a DM.)

With Warmth & Wonder,
Stacey

Trans Day of Remembrance lands heavy this year in Alberta. 🕯️🏳️‍⚧️

In a time when this government is undermining safety, community care, public healthcare, and education, our trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse kin are holding even more fear, grief, and activation in their nervous systems. A trauma-informed lens asks us to remember: no one’s existence should be a site of threat.

To my trans and q***r beloveds:
Your life is sacred. Your body belongs to you. You are not an “issue” — you are family, wisdom, and future.

To cis folks and allies:
Being trauma-informed means we don’t look away. We stay present, listen, believe, protect kids, and help make spaces where trans people can breathe, rest, and belong. Our nervous systems — and our liberation — are deeply interconnected.

Today, move gently: light a candle, place a hand on your heart, feel your feet on the ground, say their names, donate if you can, and check on your people.
We are all connected, and we keep each other alive. 💜
