Based in Brighton & Hove, Somatic Tao was created in 2004 by Penny Boyland, to provide a deeper, more effective way to resolve all manner of symptoms resulting from stress, distress and trauma. Somatic Tao is an integrated neuro-somatically aware therapeutic approach that tracks and teaches you how to attune to your nervous system speaking in your body.Working with: • the body awareness of Somatic Experiencing (SE) to track the nervous system; • the Western neuroscientific, biological and emotional aspects of trauma; and • the Taoist philosophy of inter- and intra-relationships within the body, trauma energy locked in your body is encouraged to come back into flow and bring you back to health.
