A FREE 90-MINUTE SOMATIC WEBINAR — LIVE ON ZOOM
Why rest isn’t fixing
your exhaustion
You sleep and wake up tired and struggle to digest the stressors of daily life. This is the nervous system “stuck in survival mode” and overwhelm, that robs us of aliveness and slowly leads to burnout.
🗓️ Saturday, August 29 · ⏳ 90 minutes, live on Zoom · 🎁 Free, registration required
🕗 8am Toronto (EDT) · 1pm London (BST) · 8pm Bali (WITA)
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU
You've tried to slow down and listen to your body, and remove stressors from your life. So why are you still this tired?
You’ve gone to bed early, and prioritized your needs however possible, yet your body still feels tense and tired or collapsed and disconnected, and life feels like too much or flat.
When our nervous system is chronically stuck on “on” or “off”, just getting more sleep won’t change it. We need to learn that it is safe to stop, and begin to embody that day in and day out.
So if:
You wake up tired, before the day has started.
Your chest hums with a low buzz that does not settle, even when you finally sit down.
Your jaw is tight, your shoulders are up near your ears, and your gut is in a knot by mid-morning.
Brain fog is your normal and you struggle to feel like yourself or find clarity within it.
You keep going anyway, because stopping has never felt safe or like an option.
THE IDEA AT THE HEART OF THIS WEBINAR
Survival mode wears two faces, and they need opposite medicine
Most burnout advice treats exhaustion as one thing, a tank running low but your body knows the difference. Finding out which is yours changes how you meet it.
STUCK ON "ON" 🥵
Wired and tired
You are exhausted, and struggle to feel your life. Your mind wakes you up racing, body humming, between 1-3am. Rest feels challenging because it feels like lying down inside an engine that will not switch off. This is a system stuck in high activation.
STUCK ON "OFF" 🥶
Heavy and flat
The spark is gone, and most things take effort. You feel foggy, numb, and disconnected from aliveness in your body and the sweetness of life. Sleep doesn’t change how you feel because it is not just low fuel, but a nervous system that is freezing to protect you.
Wired needs settling. Flat needs gentle waking. In this session you will learn to feel which one is yours, in your own body, and practical somatic tools to begin to give yourself what you need to feel more, and enjoy the aliveness that is your birthright.
Less lecture, more coming home to the body
WHAT OUR 90 MINUTES TOGETHER LOOK LIKE
This is a guided, somatic experience to begin to discover your nervous system’s underlying patterns, with plenty of room to stay inside your own window of tolerance. You can keep your camera off if you like, and engage or not, however you feel.
We arrive together
I'll share who I am, and we’ll do a brief nervous system practice to support you to land.
i
The two faces of burnout
We name the sensations, emotions, etc. of wired and of flat, so you can recognize which is living in you now.
ii
A short practice to feel your own state
An interoceptive and regulation exercise that supports you to feel where you are or aren’t in relation to your body and nervous system state.
iii
How we got here
The story of a nervous system that learned to keep going because stopping never felt safe.
iv
One tool to take home
A regulation practice you can use that night. One for the wired, one for the flat, so whichever survival pattern is yours gets met.
v
A warm close, and what's next
We arrive closer to home together, with space for questions and a gentle look at where this work goes deeper.

YOUR GUIDE
Parts & Shadow work
Found School of Sacred Somatics
Hi I’m Jaya
I'm a Master Somatic Therapist, a Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Energy Therapist, and someone whose path has been rooted in mysticism for over 20 years. I've offered more than 10,000 somatic energy therapy sessions, sitting with people inside exactly these types of nervous system patterns. I know them from the inside too, particularly after giving birth to a son with ongoing, complex health needs. I have found my way back to a body that feels like home, and have supported him to do the same. A mother’s love is everything!
My work names what is happening in our bodies in relation to our stress physiology, and long-standing patterns, and supports somatic trauma integration that keep them stuck. We also meet ancestral and cultural wounds, and move towards the sacred without using it to skip the hard parts. And we go slowly, because safety to meet what was once overwhelmed is what truly changes a nervous system.

WHERE THIS WORK GOES DEEPER
This webinar is a taste. Bali retreats and online somatic trainings are the full meal.
What we touch in 90 minutes, we live for eight days at my somatic retreat in Ubud, this December. A cliffside sanctuary, with a yoga shala perched above the sacred Petanu River (see image left!), two pools, jungle and sky, nourishing food, sacred community, and the slow work of teaching your nervous system that it is finally safe to rest.
If your body leans toward more, the door to Bali will be open. You can read more about it here. 🌸

From people who've done this work

"I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 10 years ago, and have explored many ways to manage and cope with pain and fatigue with not much lasting improvement. After each Somatic energy therapy session with Jaya, I have felt a noticeable reduction in overall pain, a much needed boost to my energy level, as well as a deeper connection to my own inner healing wisdom. Since we have moved our sessions online, I have been surprised and delighted by the similar effects of our ‘distance sessions’! A gifted healer, Jaya’s innate abilities and extensive training truly facilitate total body/mind/emotion healing and realignment. Where I felt ‘stuck’ in my healing journey before, I now feel free to again move forward in giant leaps!"

"Jaya, what a powerful energy you hold. I am so grateful for what you did for me, I felt such a release. My back pain that has been with me for decades is gone. Thank you for showing me the link between mind and body. The Somatic training on the retreat taught me so much about mind body awareness. The examples and practical training was perfect. The way you treated and released the trauma I experienced at birth has shifted me to another level. Your ability to hold space and intuit what needs to be addressed is very strong. You are confident, well informed, yet also calm and humble. Thank you so much!"
