I took a workshop with Dan Leven back in 2012, in the midst of a very dark time in my life, and I was so moved by the practices he shared that I began working with a SomaSoul® therapist shortly thereafter and eventually began the professional training. I tried talk therapy for a number of years, but SomaSoul® Somatic Therapy helped me in ways talk therapy never could, and if I’m being completely honest, it saved my life. I am now a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist, and I teach Shake Your Soul® each week, which brings me so much joy. I have found belonging in a way that I always craved but never knew was possible — belonging within myself and within a community of people who I remain connected to in a deep way.
