Tap into your body’s wisdom and guidance through powerfully embodying your Soma and Spirit as one.
Cultivate lasting change through your body — in your life, your relationships, and work in the world.
settings
As you move through your day, are you struggling to maintain a conscious connection to the peace you experienced in your morning practice?
Or maybe you’re steeped in a tradition that’s helped you powerfully transform and evolve — yet your routine is either feeling flat or falling short in meeting the challenges of the current times we are living in...
Maybe you sense a stirring within you, a calling to something greater and to create real change in the world.
You’re certainly not alone.
When keeping up with the pace of daily life, commitments, expectations, and more… it can be difficult to hold onto that deep sense of peace and wellbeing you felt earlier on your yoga mat or meditation cushion.
You might have an unconscious belief that higher states of consciousness are reached outside of yourself… or through a specific teacher or tradition. You associate the ritual with your awakening.
The truth is, when you evolve spiritually, you’re actually opening to deeper levels of consciousness within yourself.
As Soma (your body) and Spirit come together, you create more space for spirit within you — expanding your capacity for healing, love, and serving others.
You become more aware, have more choices, and discover you can take effective action in your life...
It’s time to get reoriented and recognize your body as a doorway — a path to Spirit and the Mystery of life.
Join us and discover why understanding this powerful truth is more important than ever...
During a powerful new hour with pioneer in the field of somatics, master teacher, and bestselling author Richard Strozzi-Heckler, PhD, you’ll discover what’s possible when you embody the true meaning of Soma and Spirit.
settings
Through Somatic awareness (becoming aware of sensations), Somatic opening (bodywork to release held patterns in the body) and Somatic practices (meditation, movement, and being present in everyday life), Richard helps you integrate body-oriented somatic practices to help you dissolve habits, behaviors, and beliefs that are keeping you from moving forward in your critical areas of your life.
As you’ll discover, your body is both a portal for spirit and spirit itself. Richard will show you how to become reacquainted with your body portal as the portal for your spirit taking you deeper into connection with the fullness of your livingness.
settings
This isn’t about transcending life’s messiness, but recognizing that your emotions, needs, wounds, joys, as well as your longing, are the elements that help you wake up.
You’ll explore how your body is a doorway to skillful action, grounded compassion, pragmatic wisdom — and a way to love the world, and let the world love you.

During this free online event with Richard, you'll:
settings
- Explore what it means to shift states of consciousness
- Discover how Soma is the doorway to embodying the Mystery
- Learn how to tap into the wisdom of your body — including its profound ability to adapt...and why it’s so much more than a mere butler to the mind
- Rethink which experiences in your life have been most pivotal — and discover how to develop habits and strategies to reignite your connection to life, land, Spirit, and others
- Learn practices that awaken and open the body to its inherent wisdom and potential
settings
In Western culture, we’re often taught that spirit and body are separate — this only leads us into a deeper separateness from ourselves, others, and the earth.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
As you embody your WHOLE self, you’re opening a pathway to more aliveness and more connection to Spirit. This newfound connection allows you to experience greater connection to others — and to your work in the world.
During this powerful event, you’ll also hear about a rare chance to go deeper and explore Soma as a doorway to Spirit with Richard during a brand-new retreat.
You’ll learn how to embody the Mystery more purposefully. You’ll explore the unexpected processes that emerge as you sincerely acknowledge the interdependence of body, energy, Mystery, and self.
Join Richard for this powerful event — and discover Soma as a doorway to your spiritual path.

“...helped transform my relationship to yearning...”
[Richard led] a physical experience of my deep yearning — and that yearning itself is a source in the mystery. To feel this in my heart center, solar plexus and belly — each at different times — helped transform my relationship to yearning from one of vulnerability and shame to one of exultation.
