Somatic Body — Mind Awareness: An Embodied Exploration
What happens when we slow down enough to actually listen to the body? Join Soleil Hepner for a guided somatic experience and embodied exploration of the vagus nerve — the “core” of the nervous system. Rather than simply talking about regulation, this hour invites direct experience — noticing moments of settling, activation, connection, and ease as they arise in real time. Through simple, embodied practices, you’ll explore how attention, breath, movement, and presence can support a greater sense of awareness and connection within yourself. This is a gentle, supportive space to slow down, reconnect, and experience your body in a new way. No prior experience is necessary. Simply come curious. This experience is offered at no cost, so that more people can access this work. Spots are limited and continuing to fill. This experience is part of our Wellness First Community Series, presented by Sycuan Casino.
The Somatic Awareness Class will offer an embodied way of learning about the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve runs from our brainstem to our gut and is responsible for the "rest and digest" functions like heart rate, digestion and immune responses. Learn how to support your nervous system with this body-to-mind class. Soleil Hepner has 20+ years of somatic leadership and offers trainings to therapists, coaches, teachers and individuals interested in wellness.
