Community Holding: Exploring the Somatics of Being Misunderstood
w/ Luis Mojica
at The Forest Haven (Saugerties)
Entry: $45-$90 - Link to Purchase EntryThis four-hour session is designed to explore and untangle the embodied experience of being misunderstood—a common and deeply human response to trauma. Together, we’ll gently challenge the belief that being misunderstood means we are defective, broken, or inadequate in any way. Instead, by spending time in community we learn: we all have trauma and the only "problem" is having to carry it alone. We’ll uncover how this experience lives in our bodies and how we can move toward connection and clarity.
In this session, we will focus on the somatic impact of miscommunication, misattunement, and the emotional residue of feeling unseen or unheard. Often, our bodies respond to these moments with contraction, confusion, or self-doubt, rooted in survival patterns that aim to protect us from further harm. By tuning into the body’s signals, we’ll identify where these patterns reside, how they shape our interactions, and how we can begin to nurture a sense of self that feels steady, confident, and whole—even in the face of misunderstanding.
Through the magic of co-regulation, our bodies become mycelial roots that stretch across the space we're in. Together we increase our capacity for emotions & sensations that would be too much alone. I will open the space with a somatic practice, invite some weaving of intentions, teach you about co-regulation and lead an exercise in it, and then we will all take turns experiencing what it's like to be held by 50 hands on a table.
To be loved back to life and release the stored pain we hold through connection and celebration, instead of isolation and shame. We will end with bringing the comfort and safety that we created together back into our own homes with our own bodies.RSVP to receive address and directions
