You don’t have to live with stress, stiffness, discomfort, or pain

Using Clinical Somatic Education (aka Hanna Somatics) as my foundation, I integrate insights from contemporary neuroscience and approaches such as Polyvagal Theory, Focusing, and Peter Levine’s work to help individuals and small groups get rid of stuck stress and tension, and the discomfort and pain - emotional and physical - that goes along with it.

Become your own healer. Create positive changes in your brain, body & life.

Get strategies to maintain freedom from stuck stress and ongoing pain - without relying on medications and endless visits to therapists.

Hello and welcome. I'm Samantha Holland.

People come to me to when they’re suffering from ongoing stress, stiffness, discomfort, and pain.

I can help, especially if

• Your problem’s chronic, having gone on for months or years with little or no improvement (whatever you try),

• Your symptoms are “unexplained”,

• Your symptoms just won’t go away despite multiple therapies, medications, self-help strategies, and even surgeries, and/or

• You may have an unresolved experience of trauma that is part of the problem.

Using specific movements and self-sensing techniques grounded in neuroscience and lived experience, you can release the stuck stress at the root of your problems, to live the life you want - less stressed, and free from stiffness, discomfort, and pain.

Many of these problems are neuromuscular (which means it’s about the communication between your brain and your muscles). This is why YOU are the best person to address your stress, your discomfort, and your pain.

Why? Because no-one else CAN make changes to you “from the inside”. And if the problem’s neuromuscular, then that’s where the changes have to be made. (See my free ebook on signs that indicate your pain is neuromuscular. Also see this interview that I did with MysticMag on the topic, which was fun and interesting!)

The specific movements and self-sensing approaches I teach activate your inbuilt capacity to release stress, get rid of stiffness, discomfort and pain, and experience far greater freedom and ease in your body and in your life. (#neuroplasticity!)

While I support & guide your healing, the most important thing you’ll learn is not how someone else can ‘fix’ you, but how you can truly, effectively heal yourself.

With me, in my courses or in 1:1s, you learn specific movement strategies and sensing techniques so you can best take active care of yourself. You’ll explore

• How to release the embodied stress and stored trauma that cause so many emotional and physical “symptoms”, and

• How to replace unhelpful, unhealthy patterns of movement with whole-body awareness to enable you to move with far greater comfort and ease.

Learning these healthier patterns of movement, and learning to soothe your own nervous system

• Lowers your stress levels and can help address stuck trauma, and

• Transforms stiffness & pain into fluidity & ease

Just imagine…

• Not feeling stressed-out all the time.

• Not feeling stressed for no reason.

• Sitting, standing, lying down, and walking comfortaby and with true ease.

• Enjoying activities you love without stress or pain holding you back.

• Experiencing full-body rest & relaxation, and feeling truly at ease in your whole, embodied self!
