Do you find that going to a yoga class can sometimes trigger pain, tension, or fatigue, making you feel worse instead of better?
If you live with fibromyalgia, hypermobility, chronic pain, fatigue, or autoimmune conditions, movement can feel tricky. Big stretches with long holds can sometimes feel like you’re tugging at your tissues without any benefit. Your body resists, tension rises, and pain increases.
There’s a gentler, smarter way to practice: somatic yoga.
Our fascia, the connective tissue surrounding every muscle and joint, plays a huge role. When it’s dehydrated or restricted, our proprioceptors (body sensors) don’t work well, pain signals increase, and movement can feel unsafe.
Somatic yoga focuses on slow, mindful, and playful movement, tiny jiggles, gentle oscillations, and subtle bounces, that:
✨ Rehydrates and releases fascia
✨ Improves proprioception and motor control
✨ Reduces chronic pain and tension
✨ Helps your nervous system feel calm, safe, and supported
This is movement that listens to your body, not pushes it past its limits.
💛 Join my online somatic yoga class and discover how to move with ease, safety, and pleasure.
