SOMA SOUL
Integrative medicine for sacred realignment
SOMA SOUL is a complete holistic therapy designed to help you release emotional stories held in the body and mind, so you can re-align to a natural state of harmony. This method was inspired by Joana’s expertise and training in ayurveda, fascial therapy, breath work, and somatic healing. This a therapy designed to bring vibrant harmony to the mind, body, and soul on a transformative level.
In Vedic times, SOMA was a plant with great mysticism and spiritual power given as an offering to the gods. SOMA is mentioned as existing in all plants in the Rig Veda. It is also though that from every form of Agni(fire), there is a form of SOMA. In yogic spiritual practice SOMA is the nectar secreted from the pineal gland during deep states of meditation. This Amrita is thought to drip down and mingle with the heart, and align heart and mind. SOMA was an important part of spiritual practices, and shamanic medicine in ancient times and it is the essence we bring to life in the living body with this sacred therapy.

SOMA soul method
Typical talk therapies engage only the mind, not the body, encouraging people to become aware of disturbing thoughts and behavior patterns without addressing the cellular intelligence, and memory, stored in our body.
Massage, acupuncture, and other body work modalities, done without awareness, and inner observation, only target held tension in the body temporarily without addressing the mental pattern causing the ‘holding’. With these methods very little actually changes.
Soma Soul is a mind-body centered therapy that addresses held emotions, patterns and beliefs in the entire system. This is a somatic therapy method, where the body is the gateway to deeper healing in the nervous system.
This form of therapy cultivates an awareness of bodily sensations, and teaches people to feel safe in their bodies while exploring thoughts, emotions, and memories. The SOMA SOUL method is about coming back to the safety of the present moment , and understanding that we can release the old stories, emotions, and patterns that no longer define our situation or being.
While “Cognitive behavioral therapies” focus on conscious thought, and work on challenging thoughts in relation to anxiety and behaviors. This therapy is more about relieving that stored tension in the body, along with the mind.
What is a SOMA SOUL THERAPIST?
A soma soul therapist helps people release damaging, pent-up emotions in their body by using various mind-body techniques. These can vary widely, ranging from acupressure , introspection , touch, and rocking , to breathwork, dance, and sound.
It is important to understand a practitioner can only take a client as deep as they have gone themselves, and as deep as the client allows. A SOMA SOUL practitioner has to be doing deep somatic work also , and develop experience holding space for big emotions and releases. A deep level of intuition, empathy, and insight is required for this therapy.
