Last Tuesday I facilitated my first full somatic journey with Angela, who was such an engaged and wonderful partner. Today, she just facilitated for me, taking me on an intensely profound healing that I was not expecting to be so raw and emotional. Thank you for that experience. As these 12 weeks of SOMA IQ training come to a close, I feel such deep gratitude. This journey has been more than learning techniques — it has been a remembering. From SOMA IQ I have learned the rhythm of breath as medicine, the science and art of holding space, the courage to lean into discomfort, and the joy of releasing through sound and movement. I’ve learned the power of community, of witnessing one another in our rawness and strength. And I’ve learned that my purpose has always been here: helping others through spiritual creativity —through the integration of AA and breathwork, singing and playing guitar, making sculptures, painting, jewelry, writing, etc...all of these are connected to our souls and our unique journeys. I will miss our weekly gatherings. The presence and encouragement of our facilitators — Dr. Samir, Adam, and Casey — and the spirit of classmates like Kylie, Bonnie, Angela, Sabine, Hazna, and so many more created a container unlike anything I’ve known. This training has felt like stepping into a 432hz wave — coherence, harmony, and resonance unfolding in every cell. And as the wave carries forward, I carry it too. Into my practice, into my service, into each breath. The courage, fortitude, frequency and purpose has always been inside us, It is a gift and I am so grateful for all of you and proud of all of us. This has not only been training — it has been a remembering of purpose.

I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude for Alyssa Stefanson facilitating the breathwork on Sunday. She started off with a grounding exercise that grounded us into the core of the earth and then from our hearts to the brightest incomprehensible intelligence of the multiverse, then she guided us through a full hour journey that was so vast and cleared so much I felt so free and clear and "lit up" that I was able to process and am still embodying what I received. Alyssa's words were magically orchestrated keeping me in my body and fully present for an experience that I was not expecting to be so intensely beautiful. Thank you for these Sunday workshops and thank you so much, Alyssa. WOW🌻

"When we stop resisting ourselves, we become whole. And in that wholeness, we discover a reservoir of strength, creativity, and resilience we never knew we had." Rudá Landê How do we stop resisting who we are meant to or could be? What's it like when we do become whole? 💕

So I keep coming bk too this group but can’t quite get my head into the learning I don’t know why I don’t take it in Also I was shown how too start breathwork when super unwell turns out I was too unwell So I did the last 1 but not completely done yesterdays o really really Neva thought I could do it as was so unwell I pushed throw stopped when needed I felt better almost right away lighter I have just cried my eyes out I have been trying too find a way since cancer I miss my job it was what I’d done since 13 and I was really good at it Trained in Toni and guys run salon in Mallorca worked on cruise ships when they come I Neva new I would not do it again till I was told I could end up in wheelchair if I continued that I had excepted it but now I know I really have only just let it go xx

If im on the right track here, what surprised me most was during the body mapping, I felt the tension in my shoulders, I realised what I was feeling was fear. Then I heard the stories I was telling myself that change is not possible for me and that terrifies me. And lastly I knew my desire was to be my true authentic self without all this baggage. After the breathwork, in that last breath hold ..guess what I felt.. the real me..without the baggage..my authentic self! WOW!!! Even if my brain takes over again..the time spent in that space has given me so much hope. Thankyou once again for day one of the work shop.. tears fell.. tears of relief and wonder xx
