on Somatic Empathy
Somatic Empathy: Experiencing what other people feel while being aware that this vicarious state is produced by someone else.” Cindy Engel, Ph. D.
How, and why do I feel what others feel? How can I turn it off? How can I develop more Somatic Empathy? Why would I?
I propose to explore these questions using Somatic Movement, a type of bodywork that helps us become aware of what we don't normally think is possible to feel in our own body.
It unfolds through slow, guided explorations of mindful movement, at the intersection of health, self-regulation, consciousness, and self-transformation. These gentle explorations are suitable for participants of any age or movement background. They are for anyone with a body!
