If you are on a recovery journey and want to feel more ease and freedom in your body, join Somatic Recovery Experts, Beth & Chelsea, to…

  • Understand why your body is the missing link to sustainable change

  • Build capacity to navigate your emotions with confidence and compassion

  • Reclaim personal agency in your body and experience freedom from unwanted behaviors

  • Learn practical somatic tools to self-regulate and soothe discomfort naturally

  • Receive support and coregulate with like-minded community

This is the path to more Resilience.

Resilient Recovery Circles provide a relaxed, trauma-informed space where we can explore what it means to live safely in our bodies with compassion, curiosity, and authenticity while creating liberation from unwanted coping strategies. We recognize all forms of addiction when we use the term “recovery” and intend for these groups to be fully inclusive. Whether you’ve been in recovery for years, months, or days or are debating whether sobriety is right for you, you are welcome!

We have found a huge gap in the recovery space – a supportive community that’s focused on the somatic aspect of recovery.

Because the body is where we feel all of the feelings we’ve been avoiding (with overworking, spending, drinking, eating, smoking, sex, and the list goes on), it’s imperative to include the body in our healing process.

We recognize all forms of addiction when we use the term “in recovery,” and intend for these groups to be fully inclusive. As long as you are interested in reconnecting with and deepening connection to your body, we would love to have you.

Every group will follow the same rhythm of peer support and process time, along with guided somatic practice and reflection. This is a trauma-informed, relaxed space to share and relate with each other, and ourselves, in new ways.

“Once you start approaching your body with curiosity rather than with fear, everything shifts.”

— Bessel van der Kolk
