Meet Oliver Phoenix, a somatic coach, yoga teacher, & movement artist who works with queer and neurodivergent folks to help them live with greater ease (& joy!) as their most authentic selves.In this empowering conversation, we talk about reconnecting with your body through somatic practices—especially for those living with chronic illness, neurodivergence, and trauma.
Together, we unpack what somatic work really means, why it’s gaining popularity, and how it can help you escape the boom-bust cycle of flare-ups and crashes.
You’ll learn how to use body-based tools to support your nervous system, develop interoceptive awareness, and stop ignoring the subtle signs your body sends before burnout hits.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
What somatics are and how they help with chronic pain, fatigue, and flare-ups
The importance of interoceptive awareness (aka: listening to your body's cues)
How to reframe pain and build safety in your body gently and effectively
The connection between authenticity, movement, and healing
