Beyond the Body

I recently heard a psychologist say:

When you feel your body, there’s a story to be heard.

YES. I agree.

But let me take it one step further…

The story isn’t just in the body.

It’s in the sound of your inner voice.

The images that flash in your mind.

The subtle sensations.

Even the random scent that shows up out of nowhere and takes you back in time.

Your unconscious mind doesn’t speak in logic.

It speaks in symbols and senses.

And when healing only focuses on what we can name or analyze, we miss out on some of the most powerful information available.

The Problem with Staying Only in the Body

Somatic awareness is a game changer —

no doubt about that, but too many professionals stop there.

They ask:

Where do you feel that in your body?

And while that’s helpful… it can become just another box.

Another partial answer.

We are so much more than one channel.

The Real Gold Is in the Whole Sensory System

See. Hear. Feel. Taste. Smell.

Your system has been logging information since the beginning of your existence.

It doesn’t just remember pain in the body.

It stores the sound of the words that hurt you.

The flash of someone’s face when they looked at you with disappointment.

The smell of a room where everything changed.

This is the level where true rewiring happens.

Why This Matters for Real Change

You can’t out-talk your unconscious.

You can’t intellectualize your way past survival patterns.

And just feeling something in your body isn’t enough.

Most people notice a tight chest or a sinking stomach —

but they don’t realize that’s the unconscious mind trying to speak.

They don’t get the message behind the feeling…

Because no one’s ever shown them how to listen that way.

But you can learn.

You can tune into the images, sounds, and sensations beneath the surface.


And once you do, you can re-educate the unconscious in a language it actually understands.

That’s when change doesn’t just happen faster — It happens deeper.

And it sticks.

What I Do Differently

This is the work I do every day.

✔ Helping people hear what they didn’t realize they were saying to themselves

✔ Helping them see patterns they didn’t know they were running

✔ Helping them shift automatic reactions into conscious choice — not through force, but through awareness

Because when the whole system is engaged, your brain doesn’t just change…

It remembers how to be whole.

If you’ve done the talking, the feeling, the healing work — and you’re still not where you want to be…

You’re not missing something.

You’re missing what happens when you finally hear yourself clearly.

I work with people who are ready for the kind of change that reaches all the way down.

If that’s you…

I’d love to show you how.
