Somatic Writing with Sensory Words
Somatic writing invites you to engage all your senses, bringing your body's wisdom to the page. By focusing on physical sensations—from the weight in your chair to the texture beneath your fingers—you create a pathway back from disconnection. This practice honors how our bodies protect us during stress and trauma, building self-compassion while deepening your creative expression through rich sensory details.
