A Poem Written by Hannah – Somatic Intelligence Participant Hannah reflects on her shifts within Somatic Intelligence. She powerfully captures the essence of this work and the transformation inside the program.

A sudden accident threw all my new year plans out the window — but it also revealed, in real time, the somatic intelligence I’ve built over years. What does it mean to have a body that can meet shock, change and discomfort?

When I was recovering from PTS (no 'D' because I don't think it's a disorder lol), knowing how to navigate triggers was a critical tool in my toolbox. 

I grew up with a “strong” Jamaican single mum who wanted to provide for me – to make sure I could survive the world. And she did her best.

How we navigate transitions in what we need at different stages of our journey – in relationships, work, expression, and self. 

Somatic development isn’t linear — it’s a humbling, beautiful return to presence. In this post, I map 14 stages of the journey, from disconnection to embodied aliveness.

True well-being isn’t just about calm—it’s about embracing the full spectrum of human experience. Suppressing emotions limits deep healing and connection, while aliveness comes from allowing feelings to flow.
