“It’s so important that we’re able to connect with our bodies, because our bodies are really our compasses, our direction in life. The mind is useful, it’s a good servant, but it’s a really messed up master.” – Peter A. Levine
Somatic prana treatment helps you reconnect with your body, gently dissolve blockages, breathe more freely, and feel lighter. If you are not ready to take off your clothes and be touched, this treatment does not require it. We always start from where you are in the moment.
What is somatic prana and how does it work?
The word “sōma” comes from Greek, meaning body, while “prāna” is a central concept in Ayurveda, meaning breath, life force, vital energy. As the name suggests, the focus here is on your body. The mind is invited to finally listen to the signals of the body—rather than overriding them, as often happens during stressful periods when you suppress tiredness, pain, or physical discomfort.
Somatic prana gently guides you back into your body, helping you become aware of inner sensations, release tension, dissolve energy blockages, and clear old imprints. Through mindful breathing, movement, and touch, your nervous system is supported to calm down, your body’s self-healing processes are activated, and you begin to feel safe and at home within yourself. This loving, inward attention brings you closer to your essence, allowing emotions to flow freely again, so that harmony and self-love can naturally arise.
What will you experience during a session?
In touch-based sessions like lomilomi or tantric prana massage, you mostly surrender your body and let yourself be held. Somatic prana, however, unfolds fully at your own pace, gently expanding your boundaries step by step. Each session becomes a unique, personalized journey in which I accompany you, while the steps are always agreed upon together.
During the session you may explore:
Conscious breathing and self-massage, helping you calm the nervous system and regain a sense of safety.
Meditation and guided imagery practices, through which you can reconnect with your inner resources of love and joy.
Touch, only where you feel ready for it: for example on your face, neck, hands, or feet. Even through clothing we can activate energy points to gently dissolve local blockages.
In the final stage of the treatment, you connect with your etheric body in a state similar to conscious sleep, also known as an astral state. This is a lying-down meditation, where I guide you externally with subtle energy movements. Here visions, forgotten memories, new ideas, or insights may arise. The mind becomes active and expansive, while the physical body deeply relaxes, rests, and heals on an energetic level.
