The Somatic Handbook: Thirty Body-Based Practices for Your Nervous System

There's a gap between what the mind knows and what the body feels. You can understand that you're okay and still feel tense, wound up, or shut down. These practices work through the body instead of the mind, so when anxiety spikes or the body goes numb, you can turn to the right page and find something to do in a few minutes.

It works like a reference. The thirty practices are sorted by how you're feeling, across six chapters:

• When You're Activated, for racing thoughts and a tight chest
• When You're Shut Down, for numbness and fog
• When You Need to Discharge, for restless, wired energy
• When You Need Containment, for overwhelm
• When You Need to Come Back to Your Body, for feeling disconnected
• When You Need to Release Tension, for the jaw, shoulders, and everywhere you hold it

There's also a journaling page in every chapter, and six sequences that combine a few practices for specific moments.
