Workshops

We offer two styles of workshops to guide teens and adults in developing deeper relationships to their bodies. To bring a workshop to your organization, please contact Emily at emily@embodyingcalm.com

Soothing Touch: Self-Massage for Relaxation

Immerse yourself in this relaxing guided experience as you press pause on outside distractions, attune to your body, and relieve pain and tension. We’ll practice calming touch, breath, and mindfulness techniques. No experience necessary. These workshops are taught through the Insight Timer App. Join our weekly class on Tuesdays at 8:30pm, starting February 14th or contact Emily at emily@embodyingcalm.com to host a workshop for your group!

Building Your Embodiment Toolbox

Guided by a licensed massage therapist, you’ll learn tools, tips and techniques to calm and self-regulate during stressful moments. Your tools will include beginner-level visual, sensory and proprioceptive techniques that you can modify to fit real-life situations and environments. This workshop is equal parts experiential and group discussion. Every participant will leave with a practical “toolbox” of skills and a tracker to follow your progress!
