Embodied Coaching: A 30-Hour Somatic Immersion for High-Impact Practice
The Embodied Coaching program introduces somatic coaching, integrating foundational somatic models with ICF competencies. Each session includes experiential activities to deepen understanding and practice somatic behaviors, culminating in a robust action plan for participants to implement somatic coaching into their coaching practice.
What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic coaching is a powerful approach that integrates body-cantered practices with traditional coaching methodologies – it broadly has 3 aspects as below;
- Mind-Body Connection: Somatic coaching recognizes the interconnectedness of mind, body, and emotions. It emphasizes the wisdom held within the body and utilizes it as a resource for insight and change.
- Embodied Awareness: Coaches guide clients to tune into their physical sensations, posture, movement, and energy levels. This heightened awareness helps uncover hidden patterns, limiting beliefs, and unresolved emotions that may be hindering their progress.
- Experiential Learning: Somatic coaching goes beyond cognitive exploration. It involves experiential exercises like breathwork, body scans, and mindful movement to facilitate deeper understanding and shifts in perspective.
