About this masterclass

So much of high-achieving life happens from the neck up — driving, proving, chasing a version of yourself that's always one milestone away. Somatic practitioner Maggie Hayes spends this hour bringing you back down into the body, where acceptance and peace are actually felt rather than thought.

She works with "freeze" energy directly: simple, doable practices — orienting to the room, neck and head movement, breath — that speak to the parasympathetic nervous system in its own language. You'll learn why so much regulation runs through the neck and face, and how tiny physical practices can shift a stuck state when thinking your way out has failed.

About Maggie Hayes

Somatic Practitioner

Join somatic mentor and embodiment guide Maggie Hayes for 60 minutes as she teaches you how to use somatic approaches to harness your sensitivity and use it as a strength. ‘Somatic’ refers to your physical experience of an emotion, and offers you new tools and perspective to work with greater sensation and energy, done through the body rather than the mind. Maggie has taken her training and personal practice over 10+ years and created The Core Rising Method: a unique combination and flow of body-based techniques from the worlds of somatic healing, embodiment, yoga and breath, to satisfy the energy you feel and safely express it, allowing it to process and move through you instead of overwhelming you. In this 60 minute masterclass you will learn: • Nervous System 101: what it is and how it is related to our overall emotional well-being. • Body-Based Healing: how using the body serves in healing emotional patterns. • Movement and Body Work: how to use the body to establish safety and balance within the nervous system. Plus… • Experiential Meditation: how to use your awareness to witness your emotions in a new way.

This was absolutely incredible! I cried during the calm/safe place exercise. I finally realized I’ve been feeling unsafe with tumult at work. The EMDR work really helped me calm down and left me able to get sh*t done today!
