Somatic Coaching & Embodiment

What is Somatic Coaching?

Somatic coaching is like training to increase body awareness. The coachee learns to become more aware of his or her body, to pay attention to physical changes that become apparent in challenging situations or that have developed over the course of an overwhelming period of time and to let go of them.

If restrictive physical reactions are allowed to go, the body has more energy that can be used for the healing process of somatic complaints. It also creates space for new experiences, insights and new qualities. Access to unused potential becomes available.

What is Embodiment?

Embodiment can be understood as an overarching concept and is based on the assumption that not only the psyche influences the body - but also vice versa. The body is therefore not just a passive shell for the mind, but is actively involved in shaping our consciousness and our experiences.

At the same time, the term embodiment stands for the ability to contain certain qualities. Leadership embodiment, for example, aims to enable managers to embody relevant qualities such as authenticity, presence, stability, clarity and courage.

Who is Somatic Coaching & Embodiment suitable for?

Somatic Coaching and Embodiment is for all people who feel the desire to face their challenges in a holistic way, to harmonize body and mind and to explore their unconscious, physical reactions.

People with a lot of responsibility and high pressure to succeed, such as the self-employed, freelancers, entrepreneurs, team leaders and managers, tend to lose touch with their own bodies and feel less at ease due to excessive stress.

  • Disruptive behavior patterns, such as procrastinating or excessive brooding
  • Disorientation or indecisiveness
  • Lack of self-confidence
  • Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of the public
  • Perfectionism and excessive desire for control
  • Excessive sense of responsibility

Typical physical symptoms can be

  • Sensations of pressure, tension and muscle pain
  • Chronic neck pain and back pain
  • Herniated discs
  • Frequent headaches and migraines
  • Stomach cramps, reflux or irritable bowel syndrome
