Health comes when we are in balance. When we are out of balance, restoring the delicate system of our body mind requires consideration of the whole system. Mark Hoch, MD talks with Richard and Anna Marie about how people can put their personal, Health Care | Self Care network. Find practitioners that will work together on your behalf to manage your particular health situation. Mark affirms that wellness networking is the medicine of the present. (Why wait for the future for something you can accomplish today?)

Dr Mark Hoch is a doctor that understands healing and he offers his patients the elements of genuine care. In this first of a series of conversations with him, our hosts will be discussing the idea of being a true "ATTENDING PHYSICIAN" where care providers talk to each other, network together for the benefit of the client, and how you can put together your own self-care network of practitioners who will competently attend to your true healthcare needs.

Ridding herself of burnout through the practices of trauma-informed, somatic work was her first step towards finding Somatic Mindfulness. Alyson shares how she found the work, how she shares the work, and how her clients responded to the work. Plus, she shares some great wisdom for other bodyworkers looking to ease physical tension as they do their sessions.

In this first episode with Aly, you will experience some gems of wisdom that may ring true to you as a bodyworker or as a client of receiving bodywork. She shows up to meet our audience with a full and open heart.

Note: Correction! Madelana erroneously says in Somatic Mindfulness we call it sensory motor awareness. She meant to say objective sensory awareness.

Fernando offers some guidance about how anyone can use the principles of Somatic Mindfulness to increase their self-awareness and begin to improve our ability to self-regulate. Somatic Mindfulness is a gift for massage therapists to adopt in their practices, but it is actually for anyone and everyone.

Meet Fernando Rojas, originator of Somatic Mindfulness. Here he talks about how he got into bodywork and shares some of the influencers that helped to shape his views.

Roger considers the legacy of his own work as a teacher of somatic touch and movement therapies, while also reflecting back on some of the more impactful moments of his journey.

Meet Amy in our first of two conversations with her. Get to know how she has experienced Somatic Mindfulness and how she uses it in her massage practice.

Roger shares the natural evolution of his practice as a business through the ages. As a member of the NYC dance and performance community, his clients originally came from his community and he shares some powerful client stories and how he's worked to help them overcome their challenges. And from his sharing of his client stories come many morsels of wisdom for practitioners of this work and clients of those practitioners.

Roger's first-hand experience of transformation was rooted in the role movement played in his own body and life. Somatic movement and touch easily wove together and fit his professional life as a dancer & choreographer well. It's a story of ongoing transformation.
