If you’ve ever found yourself in the grip of an anxiety attack, heart pounding like it’s about to burst, breath short, and your body either frozen or frantically pacing, you’re not alone. I’ve been there. More times than I’d like to admit. What helped me wasn’t just “taking a deep breath” like everyone suggests—it was…
If you’re like me, you might’ve spent hours hunched over a screen, curled up on the couch, or stuck in traffic, unaware that your spine is quietly absorbing it all.

I’d done physical therapy, tried the usual meds, adjusted my posture like a pro, but something still felt stuck deep in my body. Somatic therapy was the missing…
