Somatic Basics: Mentastics
Somatic Foundations of the Trager Approach: Mentastics
Connecting the body and mind
through movement.
Discover the transformative power of somatic therapy, a holistic approach to wellness. Dr. Milton Trager called this way of moving consciously “Mentastics”. You can seamlessly blend mental acuity with physical awareness, offering a unique pathway to enhanced well-being.
At its core, somatic movement therapies like the Trager Approach dive, deep into the unconscious mind, enhancing body awareness and revealing movement patterns. Individuals unlock a treasure trove of benefits by engaging in targeted movement explorations, from heightened relaxation to alleviating muscular tension, freeing trauma responses, reducing or eliminating chronic pain.
Embark on a journey of self-discovery as you explore the gentle yet impactful movements designed to invigorate every fiber of your being. Whether reclined, seated, or upright, these movements foster a profound connection between mind and body.
No experience is needed.

Through experiential learning, we will delve into the nuances of well-being and uncover new avenues for personal growth. Go to my calendar or tragerapproach.us to see current class schedules.
