Lina SJÖDIN

(Assistant Instructor) is part of the Somatic Dialogue Facilitator Training. She has been dedicating herself to Somatic Dialogue for 3 years and is preparing to start working with small groups and/or individuals in Luzern. This is how she defines Somatic Dialogue: Somatic Dialogue uses movements, touch, breath and music to connect with our senses and the inner landscape of our body. It aims to give the time, space and environment to tune into the body and its need to feel well and be nourished. By being in the Soft, Slow and Small, we can gently create a relationship with the material body and step by step access the invisible parts of the body. The aim is Muhabbet: A conversation where love flows. This is an opportunity to feel ourselves from within, embrace all of ourselves, melt resistances, meet and merge with ourselves and feel united in body, mind and spirit. Continue reading
