I just stumbled upon your videos. I am an RN with a lot of weight to lose which has been put on hold by a horrible car accident. I shattered the bottom of my foot and have been unable to walk since 9/27/2023. I need exercises I can perform in bed that keep my weight off of my right foot. I love the somatic bedtime routine! Please keep doing what you’re doing and I’m going to dig through all of your videos.
This is incredible! That twist move towards the end bringing the palms together is a new one for me and targets an area that's hard to get. Life saver!
My therapist recommended somatic exercises because I'm a trauma survivor, but I'm also a hotel housekeeper and this also made my body feel so much better after work.
Me too. I have 3 jobs. 1. Cleaner of airbnb's - 2x 2b 1bath units and a 3 bed 2 bath house. 2. A 5 bed 5 bath house and granny flat. 3. Console operator at a petrol station 20+ hours a week. And a volunteer Breathing Apparatus and Hazmat firefighter. 7 days a week.
This is what I’ve been needing for a long time. I’ve been putting off exercising for months because I’ve not felt up to a “normal” workout. These somatic exercises are just perfect. I feel like I’m connecting my mind to my body again in a way that’s sustainable. I love this video and the morning routine as well. Thank you so much!
@@jackiemacleod9416I have the same problem with my right arm. One day, I could no longer move it without intense pain. It’s osteoarthritis, and I’ve never seen anything come on so sudden. The MRI shows minimal damage, but I have almost no range of motion. I don’t know how to exercise so out of balance.
I did this routine last night and I slept seven hours straight. I’m so used to getting up every 2 to 3 hours and being half awake when I do almost feel like I got cheated lol I cannot remember when I slept for over three hours. Looking for a morning routine that would be just as beneficial thanks so much for posting this
Thank you for sharing your feedback! I am glad to hear this practice was so beneficial for you and your rest. Check out my playlist for Somatic Classes: th-cam.com/play/PLs5DwbEvL0tFMRpNgQ67abWE_fbd9U3CQ.html&si=J78sZhRYE6HBuefw
I’m been trying to find exercises (mental/physical) that can help me with high cortisol. I’ve come across this and initially thought it was too simplistic to have any impact, but having finished the video it’s made such a difference! Thank you
I have heard that somatic yoga helps with stress, tension, emotion, and helps with weightloss. Your video was the first I found and I'm so grateful. I struggle with self care and my body is reminding me how weak I am. This was such a great end to a rough day! I'll be using this routine at night to unwind and I want to find a morning routine as well.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Here are some other somatic practices: th-cam.com/play/PLs5DwbEvL0tFMRpNgQ67abWE_fbd9U3CQ.html&si=J78sZhRYE6HBuefw
So, I came across your video because my wife really does enjoy somatic yoga. So I decided to try your evening practice. It was decidedly different from what I’m used to and when I finished, I felt like I was drunk. I have never been so relaxed.
I am so happy to have found you. This is not only a challenge because I have scoliosis, but I woke up about six months ago and could not move my right shoulder. I’ve heard of frozen shoulder, and considered a bunch of things, but I knew I had not been injured. It’s osteoarthritis, and although the MRI shows minimal damage, the pain is not. I miss traditional yoga so much, and everything I do involving my right arm brings pain. My lower back, I can’t figure out. I overexercise and probably need to do more cool down. I hope relief is on the horizon. Thank you so much.
Sounds like you know the reason but frozen shoulder doesn't have to be preceded by trauma and is most common in women aged 40 to 60. In recovery as I write this. Hope your aches improve.
@@deongillespie6847 I was surprised to read recently that frozen shoulder is linked to menopause (as are like 80 additional things) and instead of treating each thing individually it seems like sometimes hrt can fix them all at once.
Of course! I am glad these practices are supporting you in your daily life. Have you checked out my other somatic classes? th-cam.com/video/gHFVNuCbzGI/w-d-xo.html
I AM absolutely grateful to have found this!! Literally, my body has changed overnight!! I was starting to walk like an old person and my body felt totally lighter today. I did not grunt & groan when I got in & out of my car! That made it worth it!!
I have been looking for some somatic practices to help with my age related body aches and anxiety. I can feel the tension and aches leave my joints and muscles as I stretch and move! Looking forward to trying more of your exercises.
Literally just came across this when looking at somatic yoga exercises so gave it a go. Oh wow what a difference after just 1 session. My long term shoulder pain eased, my stiff pelvis loosened and i slept well all night. Will definately be doing this more regularly. Thank You x
I can’t put into words how I felt after completing each step in this video. I honestly cried when I was finished, I guess my body really really needed this.
I love yoga but I’m not familiar with somatic practices. I’ve been struggling with stressors and insomnia lately and this has helped a great deal. Looking forward to continuing here to practice.
Loved this routine, and especially loved how you helped me to establish a baseline awareness of my body that you kept referring back to as we progressed through the movements mindfully. That was an incredibly valuable approach. Thank you!
This was really amazing! It was my first time doing this and I could really tell the difference in how much my body loosened up and relaxed! It’s the best stretch I’ve ever gotten! My shoulder blades were really bothering me in the beginning and then by the end the pain was almost entirely gone! Plus the whole body was feeling so relaxed! Thank you so much! I’m so thankful I found you! God bless you for helping people with your channel ! I am truly grateful! Thanks
This was amazing. I had a long day at work today. I stand up for long periods of time. My body was stiff when i got in the mat and the beginning was difficult for me because i was having a hard time settling into the moment but when i did i got the feeling i was looking for calm, peace and looser hips. 😊❤
This felt good as all Somatics do, hopefully toward helping to heal tightness in my body. i sometimes do a somatic routine taught by Colm that includes this and more thank you.
i love the routines, am and pm. i love comparing right to left and noticing the difference! i get to experience the positive effects explicitly! could you make some with no education, just gentle guidance? like a somatic meditation… slower and softer speech. example: “notice how foot is turned” without examples. i get over stimulated with too many words. anyone else? thank you for being the first somatic videos from which i benefit. the practice is something i look forward to and enjoy, opposed to dread or making myself do them. ❣️
trying to relieve chronic pain and kinda desperate so I tried this tonight and Im absolutely astonished at how much it helped. I might actually get some sleep tonight.
Hi Lauren! You have changed my life with your evening routine...Thank you so much!! I go to bed relaxed and wake up with a clear mind! You asked for requests for new videos - I have a family history of chronic venous insufficiency. (It was quite deliberating for my grandfather.) Could you make an evening somatic evening routine that would benefit individuals with leg circulation issues? Another possible video idea would be an evening somatic routine focusing on the neck and shoulders. Thank you again! Your videos are wonderful!
Thank you for your feedback. Did you check out my Somatic Yoga playlist? I have some great videos for the hips and legs as well as the neck and shoulders. :)
After writing you, I looked further into your playlist and realized you have already created what I needed. Thank you so much!! Your Somatic Yoga videos have changed my life in so many beneficial ways!!!💕
I’m currently healing from Lisfranc fracture/surgery so this routine and morning one are my go to. Definitely have made an impact on my healing and mental state.😊
Absolutely loved this video. I’m at the beginning of my journey. your patient descriptions of what to do and how my body likely reacted were so helpful and reassuring. Ty!
I learned about somatic yoga from a colleague this afternoon and found your class in my search for a bedtime routine to try out. I sit for majority of the day and have noticed my lower back aching more frequently. Halfway through this routine I felt a dramatic difference with minimal aches. I'll be back for sure to see what you have for neck and shoulder routines. Thank you!
I really enjoyed this! I am a beginner in every sense of the word and at the start of the practice, I thought I wouldn't be able to do it. I have A LOT of back pain. But...your accepting and encouraging words and tone got me through. And I felt more flexible and had less back pain by the end! I'd love more relaxing evening/night time sessions. 😊
I love this practice & all your somatic practices. I’m a runner on the road to recovery from a sacral stress fracture & through a dexascan I’ve now found out I have osteopenia. Thank you for sharing these with us 💕🧘🏻♀️🙏🪷
First time on this channel and this was so awesome! Your guidance was just what I needed to reset the neutrality within my physical body! I am so much lighter ❤. Much gratitude to you for offering this. New subbie😊
I loved this. Just getting back to Yoga after years of not doing it, and this was just what I needed. Just getting into somatic exercises, and I can't wait to start
Found you searching the word “somatic”…this was a fabulous way to end a long day sitting (we’ve been driving) … my body feels so much better! Relaxed and at ease! Those twisting X stretches helped my shoulder, too! I had strained it a bit carrying a heavy bucket of water and now I have my range of motion back again!! Thank you!
I literally pulled my back out yesterday for the first time in my life it was actually stuck and hurt to breathe, not sure how I managed to get unstuck but the pain has been there since it happened and this just helped tremendously
This has been incredibly helpful. I have bad right knee arthritis and I spend the majority of my day sitting (driving and desk job). I have been going to PT but these stretches have helped tremendously. I feel taller and my back is not as tight nor does it spasm anymore! Do you have exercises for knee arthritis and tight calves? Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I would recommend checking out this video for the feet and lower leg: th-cam.com/video/TZKeIBczmBg/w-d-xo.html and this video for the knees: th-cam.com/video/qVSNgStDoQE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sFkt6OetSe3_IUgV
Thank you very much, this is so relaxing. Been tense for a while but after this exercise my body feels light and l love it. Looking forward to every exercise you post
I would love if you made a vid on hip openers!! I have lost a lot of mobility in my hip from some knee injury this past year that just had my limiting movement... And i felt in this vid it helped a lot already. Thanks again
Thank you for your feedback. If you haven't already I recommend checking out my full somatic yoga playlist and subscribing to stay up-to-date on future video releases. :)
Thank you so much for this! I am new to somatic exercises and this, along with your morning practice, have been a healing addition to my daily routine. I would love to follow along with you for more somatic sessions. Grateful in Vermont :)
Thank you for this. Been having low back pain from work. Curious to try somatic exercise. Been lazy to get back again since my last year exercise. Glad to start a nice stretch.
Thank you soo much for these exercise!!! So Wednesday was my first time trying your exercise then Thursday night in the middle of your exercise some how I went to sleep 😳😳😳it was the best nap I ever had!! I gently got up and pop to bed hoping I can continue this wonderful feeling. Next day SLEPT LIKE A BABY, something that I haven’t accomplished. Thank !!!
This is so nice. Can you share more short somatic routines? Maybe full body also with attention to shoulders and neck? Thanks so much. You videos help me a lot❤
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed this :) I really love your dog. I hope he will continue to show up in zour exercises❤ I have a question: I'm really new to these somatic exercises and it's my second time doing this one. Towards the end I started feeling the need to shake my body. Especially my right arm. And I was wondering, if that's normal. Have a nice day/evening :D
Im so grateful for your work. Ive been doing your videos and another somatic reset vid. In 7 days Ive come out of 2 months of constant flight mode to the point of just shaking. 🙏🏽❤
Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge. I so appreciate your familiar approach and tone when guiding your exercises. It's so helpful for someone like me who is trying to be comfortable again their body and practice. The somatic videos have been very helpful with reconnecting and refocusing on my own body and active intentions. I'm looking forward to doing more practice with you!
It felt really good I instantly felt everything you stated I would feel . If it’s possible I need a routine to release more tension in my shoulders and something can target my belly while releasing tension please and thank you

Did the morning routine.❤ see you tonight for the evening one😊
So glad you enjoyed both.
Oh my god I have been looking for classes like this for years. Thank you 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
That was amazing. I can't believe my body lengthened like that. This was the exercise I didn't know I needed. Thank you!
I'm so glad you felt a difference. Thank you for taking class with me!
I have been searching for somatic stretches all day and this is something i think is acheieveable and very relaxing ❤
Glad you like it!

Loved this! Really felt the difference afterward. Relaxed, lenghtened, and my LB was bothering me, and it felt better afterward.
I am so glad!
I really loved this! I was sore from working in my garden, and it helped so much.
Glad it helped!
This felt good as all Somatics do, hopefully toward helping to heal tightness in my body.
i sometimes do a somatic routine taught by Colm that includes this and more thank you.
i love the routines, am and pm. i love comparing right to left and noticing the difference! i get to experience the positive effects explicitly! could you make some with no education, just gentle guidance? like a somatic meditation… slower and softer speech. example: “notice how foot is turned” without examples. i get over stimulated with too many words. anyone else? thank you for being the first somatic videos from which i benefit. the practice is something i look forward to and enjoy, opposed to dread or making myself do them. ❣️
Great suggestion! I will definitely add more somatic classes in the future.

You're so welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed a restful nights sleep. 😴
This is so nice. Can you share more short somatic routines? Maybe full body also with attention to shoulders and neck? Thanks so much. You videos help me a lot❤

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed this :) I really love your dog. I hope he will continue to show up in zour exercises❤
I have a question: I'm really new to these somatic exercises and it's my second time doing this one. Towards the end I started feeling the need to shake my body. Especially my right arm. And I was wondering, if that's normal.
Have a nice day/evening :D
Im so grateful for your work. Ive been doing your videos and another somatic reset vid. In 7 days Ive come out of 2 months of constant flight mode to the point of just shaking. 🙏🏽❤
Im so glad. 🙏🙏🙏
Love this!
Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge. I so appreciate your familiar approach and tone when guiding your exercises. It's so helpful for someone like me who is trying to be comfortable again their body and practice. The somatic videos have been very helpful with reconnecting and refocusing on my own body and active intentions. I'm looking forward to doing more practice with you!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m so glad my videos are helpful to you. 🙏
Thank you for your kind words. I am so glad my videos are helpful. 🙏
Thank you.😊 I've been told to try somatic exercises to release trauma.
Wonderful!
This is perfect after a long day at work ❤
So glad!
It felt really good I instantly felt everything you stated I would feel . If it’s possible I need a routine to release more tension in my shoulders and something can target my belly while releasing tension please and thank you
I would recommend checking out my other somatic exercise videos, especially the one for the neck and shoulders.
