Trauma-Informed Yoga and Somatic Movement

07/22/2025

One of the most powerful truths I’ve witnessed again and again: healing doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in relationship, in presence, in shared space.

🧘🏼‍♀️ Saturday, July 26

Come as you are—there’s space for you here.

4 Books I’m Loving This Season 📚
Each of these incredible authors offers something unique—whether it’s nervous system wisdom, emotional insight, or a deeper look at the human experience.
As we focus this month on building your nervous system toolkit, these books can support your journey from activation to ease:

✨ The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins – A refreshing take on boundaries, energy, and what we choose to carry.
✨ Healing Trauma by Peter Levine – A foundational guide to somatic healing and restoring connection to the body.
✨ Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata – A quiet, powerful novel about embracing identity and creating peace on your own terms.
✨ Tom Lake by Ann Patchett – A tender, beautifully told novel about love, memory, and the ways we soften over time.

📖 If you’ve read any of these, I’d love to hear your thoughts — or feel free to share your own list of recommendations for me to try!

It takes all of us to build community. Each person’s unique experiences and perspective shape the magic of this sweet Hill Country we’re so blessed to call home.

In light of the recent heaviness that has settled over our hills and into our hearts, we’re coming together for a community-focused yoga class—centered on support, connection, and care.

Please join us for a gentle, all-levels yoga class, led by local teachers—each bringing a shared intention of peace, comfort, and compassion—right in the heart of town.

Thursday, July 17
📍Marktplatz
⏰7:30 PM
(Right after the Farmers Market)

This class is donation-based, with 100% of proceeds supporting Kerr County Flood Relief.

Bring your yoga mat.
Bring a friend.
Bring yourself.

We’ll take care of the rest.
Thank you for being part of this beautiful community.

In Soma Yoga, we work with the nervous system through slow, intentional movement and breath, we begin to notice where we’re holding, bracing, or pushing… and gently explore how to soften, feel, and respond.

This is the heart of the work: learning how to regulate from within. To build a toolkit of practices that help us move from activation to ease — in ways that are personal, gentle, and rooted in the wisdom of our own bodies.

No force. No “fixing.” Just a steady return to safety, one breath at a time. 💫

Join me on the mat this week to learn more about your nervous system toolkit! Class schedule and registration on my page ^^^

Our bodies are always offering quiet cues—moments when we can soften, pause, or simply breathe. This month, in Soma Yoga, we’re learning to build our nervous system toolkit—one that supports both activation and the return to ease.

This little reminder is your invitation to trust the process.
Let the breath guide you. Let the body show you the way. 💛

See you on the mat tomorrow at 10am at Good Foundation!
