The term somatic means “of or relating to the living body,” and it’s used in medical terminology; for example, somatic cell, somatic nervous system, somatic disorder, and somatic pain. The word soma means “the body as perceived from within.” The words soma and somatic have become buzzwords in the health and wellness industry. You might have heard of somatic yoga, somatic experiencing, somatic psychology, somatic therapy, or somatic education. Since the definitions of soma and somatic are fairly generic, they can be used to describe a variety of forms of movement and healing modalities. Pretty much any type of movement or therapy that involves paying attention to your internal physical sensations and experiences can correctly be described as somatic. A somatic movement is a movement that’s practiced consciously with the intention of focusing on the internal experience of the movement rather than the external appearance or the end result of the movement. **Below are video examples of Somatic movements that "YOU" can try.
