At Soma Lingua, we’ll help you engage your body, tapping into its innate wisdom to discover new possibilities. You will envision what could be, bring awareness to what is, and explore the intersections connecting, body and mind to allow movement towards your desired future.
What is somatic coaching? It is similar to life coaching or executive coaching with an emphasis on establishing goals and working towards reaching them, but somatic coaching invites the body into the conversation by bringing awareness to sensations and noticing what the body has to say.
What is Soma Lingua? Soma Lingua is the coaching service provided by Lindsay Little. “Soma” means body and “lingua” is derived from tongue or language. The name Soma Lingua is meant to be a reminder that there is a language of the body and it is an invitation to pay attention to what the body is saying.
Soma Lingua’s Values:
- Awareness: Learning the language of the body and being able to observe and be with oneself is an integral part of expanding.
- Freedom: Attuning to sensations of the body loosens constriction and creates openings to live more freely, in congruence with oneself.
- Imagination: Making space for wonder, curiosity, and limitless possibility allows for embodied expansiveness and aliveness.
Who might benefit from somatic coaching? If you desire to be more aligned with your passions and yearn for personal growth and movement in your life, somatic coaching may be useful.
What is Soma Lingua’s Approach? Becoming aware of patterns by inviting curiosity into spaces where it has not been present to determine what is in service of your growth and disrupt what has been on autopilot, keeping you stuck, in a safe, dignified, and compassionate way. This allows the discomfort that this process may bring up to become sustainable. The discomfort is temporary and is designed to enlarge your capacity to be with emotions, feelings, and sensations that have felt intolerable and have contributed to stagnation. This results in making space, allowing movement towards achieving your goals.
What might a session involve? Sessions are 60-minutes and are conducted via Zoom. Sessions may involve grounding work, body scans (noticing what sensations you feel in your body), somatic movement practices, and conversation. Every part of the session is invitational and questions are always welcome. Sessions are meant to be collaborative and exploratory. You know yourself best. My role as coach is to hold space, ask questions, and witness your process. You will not be given advice, but assessments (or observations) may be offered with your consent.
