Wisdom of the Embodied Self - Free Workshop

This time together is an invitation to come home to your body, not as something to fix or control, but as a place to listen, feel, and connect.

As a psychotherapist, Sofia brings a compassionate and thoughtful approach to this exploration, creating space to notice what arises with curiosity rather than judgment. Through gentle movement, somatic awareness, and reflection, she’ll guide us in exploring our relationship with our bodies and the ways we may have learned to push through, judge, or disconnect. Together, we’ll slow down and reconnect with the body as a source of wisdom, presence, and self-trust.
