Ladan Nabet Bodies in Resonance

Nervous System Resilience

When you're feeling spread thin and struggling to find balance, your body can only take so much.

It can be hard to make space for yourself. Hard to down shift from the go go go. And hard to bounce back from stressful times. Especially when the stakes feel high and folks depend on you.

You might long to ease up, but your body doesn't seem to know how. Or when you need to get going again, it's hard to build momentum.

Maybe you're managing a chronic health issue that keeps flaring up, too. Taking care of yourself can feel like its own full time job.

You need to truly replenish.

You want to stop fighting your body.

What if you could move through this terrain without adding to the overwhelm? And there was a path to restore, one step at a time?

What if you finally had a map for how to navigate the complex intersection of stress, chronic health issues and all your body has carried you through? 

This is the landscape of your nervous system and energy body.

And its map offers the pathways to replenish your body and repattern its systems.

The Map of Your Nervous System

Your body's wisdom is often communicated through your experience of your "felt sense". This is your ability to notice sensations moving through your body and sense your body in space and time. This sensing (known as interoception), is a way of mapping your inner terrain.

How you relate with this terrain has important connections to your physical health and overall well being. It's a key to healing histories of disconnection and trauma. It is the ground of embodiment.

When This Approach Makes the Difference

• You've been on a healing path for a while, tending to how family and childhood dynamics have impacted you
• You want support for your body (and maybe you're also afraid of what you might find there)
• You hold a lot for others and need a space that can help hold you
• You're an empath or highly sensitive person. It's your superpower, and you also want to be able to dial it down when you need to.
• You've had a challenging health issue, medical procedure, or birth history
• You have folks you can lean on (friends, family, colleagues, mentors, trusted healthcare providers, a connection to nature or the sacred--not necessarily all of them, but a few that can help you through)

More About Working Together

The process will be unique to you, responsive to your particular intentions and needs. Yet in a few sessions, you'll have a sense of the possibilities.

Sessions deepen over time. A slow, layered, consistent approach tends to be most replenishing and transformative.

We'll lay the groundwork to:

• Shift from overwhelm, fatigue and inflammation to more ease
• Repattern the body's alarm systems which fuel chronic symptoms
• Land and rest
• Build your somatic capacity to meet the hard things and the changes you're preparing for
• Trust your knowing and intuition
• Recover magical parts of who you really are.
  (Yes, they're still here.)

The Process

Sessions typically begin with settling and connecting with the present moment. Then we'll check in about your intentions for the session.

Next we'll meet what unfolds for your body and arising in your awareness in doable pieces, pausing along the way. In person, we may include gentle touch work for support. Virtually, our awareness acts as the touch. We may also explore movement along the way.

The tools of how we meet what arises for you in sessions are drawn from both traditional and leading edge nervous system and somatic trauma resolution approaches: Alchemical Alignment Somatic Work for Trauma Resolution and Embodiment of Spirit, Polyvagal Theory, Somatic Experiencing Principles, Systemic Constellation Principles (transgenerational and systems based healing approach), Traditional East Asian Medicine philosophy, and various energy healing practices.

What if you had support and didn't have to connect the dots on your own?

A helpful beginning container is often meeting twice month for 3 to 4 months.

Some clients prefer to meet weekly at first for more support or to layer in new groundwork at the beginning, and then space sessions out to once or twice a month after that. 

You're also welcome to drop in monthly or as needed if that better suits your exploration at this time.

This work can be a helpful compliment to psychotherapy or your medical care. Yet, it's important not to do too much at one time. Our bodies need time to digest our experiences. After a few sessions of working together, I'm happy to make recommendations about what frequency might be most helpful for you for your particular circumstances.
