“The Rabbit Listened” by C. Doerrfeld

This simple and sweet children’s book may be as beneficial for adults as for children. As caregivers, adults often feel responsible for providing solutions or teaching children a lesson at every turn. When they’re upset, we want to actively help them. While there is, of course, a time for advocacy, teaching, calming, and problem-solving, this book reminds us of the power of presence. Sometimes simply being with our loved one through a tough time is the best “solution” we can provide.

📖Promotes presence
📖A good read for parent and young child
📖Promotes patience and acceptance through uncomfortable emotions

Join us this Wednesday evening at 6pm for a moment of rest as resistance as we make lemongrass tea wreaths and share in a somatic guided meditation.
It surely is a challenging societal moment bringing with it fatigue, stress, and lots of unknowns. Coming together in communal pause and healing is a form of community and self care.
Pre- registration is required. $5 per person.
All welcome (ages 11+ with accompanying adult). Register at

The world is a wild place right now. Through our work as therapists it’s impossible to ignore the toll it is taking on many. Hence we wanted to offer a time to cultivate a sense of safety, connection, and healing - within ourselves and with eachother. As we say here at SOMA, “Healing doesn’t just happen on the couch -It happens in community!”

We invite you to gather for an evening of gentle grounding practice. Join us as we weave lemongrass tea wreaths guided by intention and care. We will close the evening with a guided 10 to 15 minute somatic meditation, designed to center the body and reconnect with breath. You’ll leave with your handmade lemongrass wreath sash, and your heart a bit lighter from sharing time in mindful community.

All materials provided.
Tea and light snacks available. Open to all (ages 11+ youth must be accompanied by an adult).

It’s not reasonable to think a person will always be in a regulated nervous system state. And surely not parents or caregivers! What we work towards is a flexible nervous system that can move in and out of regulation and model this for the littles in our lives.

Our next Co-Lab is “Caregiver & Me Nervous System Regulation” where we will cover fun and creative somatic ways to foster healthy flexible regulation.

A 1.5 hour partnered somatic experience workshop for caregivers and children (ages 5-12). Through the use of modeling and mirror neurons this workshop gently guides caregivers and their children through creative and fun somatic movement, therapeutic art activity, and breathwork. Truly a time for the caregiver and child to build trust, co-regulate and connect.

You choose the fee that works for you ($30, $15, $10 or free).

We are located in the heart of the Ghent neighborhood. The address will be sent to you via email after registration.

Please note that our office is located on the second floor of a historic building. Therefore, unfortunately, there is no elevator access. We are in the process of creating a virtual option in the future.

Mel’s July Book Review
“Making Sense of Menopause: Harnessing the Power and Potency of Your Wisdom Years” by S. Willson

This book walks the reader through the stages of sexual development and, by exploring how past experiences influence the present, opens the door to conceptualizing menopause through a whole new lens. Each chapter provides information about culture, biology, and sexuality, closing with an opportunity for self-reflection. Willson normalizes menopause as a woman’s third phase of life to be valued for her expanded capacity for wisdom, patience, and support for the younger generations. It empowers the reader to appreciate and embrace, rather than dread, the “change of life.”

✨Meet Jen!
The way this chicky reads the waiting room is impeccable. Jen has a way of meeting our clients mood in order to help them feel more comfortable. She is the behind the scenes of many SOMA endeavors and is a massive helping hand at making those scenes come into being. We are very lucky to have her!
