New Series beginning next week:
The Somatics of Language: How Words Land in the Body

Tuesdays, Feb. 10th,24th, and March 3rd, 2026
5:30-6:45pm

No experience required

Instructor: Kate Gamble

Series: $45
Drop in $18

In this series, we will explore the deep connection between language and the body. Through poetry, spoken word, and personal mantras, we’ll attune to how words resonate within us—how they move through our nervous systems and leave traces of meaning, memory, and emotion. Language, when fully felt, has the power to heal us from within.

What does it mean to feel language? Beyond speaking and listening, we also experience words physically—through sensation, breath, and emotion. This somatic approach to language invites us to engage with both our delightful and difficult stories in a new, embodied way. By doing so, we can develop tools that support our natural capacity for resilience and restoration.

We’ll begin by cultivating safety through gentle, embodied meditation and then follow what arises using simple somatic practices and breathwork. There will be space to share poetry, phrases, and reflections, witness each other’s stories, and offer support within a compassionate and respectful community.

This series is open to everyone—no prior experience needed.

Curious if this program is right for you?

Join Audrey Gilbert, M.Ed., CHP, and Kate Gamble, BFA, MSPT for a free, no-pressure hour where we’ll:

-explain how mind–body approaches (neuroplasticity, somatic tools, hypnosis, breathwork) can gently shift pain patterns
-walk through the 10-week series structure, weekly practices, and support options
-offer a short calming practice you can use right away
-answer your questions about fit, accessibility, and pricing

Who it’s for: Anyone living with chronic pain, fatigue, or long-term illness—and the providers who support them.

Guided by experienced facilitators Audrey Gilbert, M.Ed., CHP, and Kate Gamble, B.F.A and MSPT, this series will integrate hypnosis, somatic movement, breathwork, creative reflection, and peer connection to gently shift pain patterns, calm the nervous system, and reconnect you with your body’s wisdom.

Rather than trying to “fix” pain, this program helps participants transform their relationship with it—reducing fear and reactivity, releasing old stories, and reclaiming joy, agency, and resilience. Together, we’ll explore neuroplasticity, emotional healing, parts work, and practical tools you can use every day.

Perfect for those living with chronic pain, fatigue, or long-term illness who are ready for new strategies, meaningful connections, and a safe space to heal.
