  • The Resonant Body
    • 12:00 - 1:00 pm

In this guided experiential practice, participants will explore fluidity in movement, voice, and vibration as tools for grounding and nervous system regulation. Using the principles of Body Dialogue, we will practice tracking our experience in our bodies, learning to notice sensations, patterns, and stories that shape our responses to each moment.

This intimate workshop offers practical tools for somatic tracking, self-regulation, grounding and presence, applicable both personally and in working with clients. We’ll weave in Alexander Technique principles, Breathing Coordination, polyvagal theory, and simple somatic practices for managing triggers and activation, with an emphasis on voice, movement, energy and sound.

Madelyn will also share insights on herbs and flower essences to support nervous system balance, grounding, and expansion. Attendees will leave with concrete practices to cultivate greater embodiment, presence, and strength in daily life.
